Money can buy a lot of material things, but love can't be measured in money. Matter is valuable, love is priceless. Sometimes in the face of material things, "love" seems more important. The movie "I Am Sam" highlights this.
The film is about the warm love of Sam and his daughter Lucy, a father and daughter.
The story begins when Sam adopts a wandering girl. Sam takes in a wandering woman, and by chance, the stray woman becomes pregnant with Sam's child. But the woman only wanted to spend Sam's money and did not want to be responsible for the child, so the stray girl left Sam after the child, leaving Sam with only 7 years old IQ and the swaddling baby.
Sam, who has only a 7-year-old IQ, has to take care of the swaddling baby alone. Changing diapers and buying milk powder is a very simple thing for others, but it is very difficult for Tom, who only has a 7-year-old IQ. But he did not give up, but studied hard for his daughter.
On this day, the child's crying disturbed the neighbor, so the neighbor told Sam: "The child needs to be fed on time." But Sam still didn't understand, so the neighbors could only let him follow the time of the TV series. So Sam did so honestly.
Sam's friend is as mentally handicapped as Sam's, but his friends are as fond of the baby as Sam is. So he will take care of the baby with Sam and make the baby happy. Daughter Lucy grew up day by day surrounded by everyone's love.
However, as the daughter grew older, her IQ gradually began to exceed that of her father, who was only 7 years old, and the daughter was no longer willing to accept new knowledge in order to maintain the same level as her father's IQ. Because of this incident, Sam was called to the school by the teacher. Sam returned home and, in order to make his daughter accept the new knowledge, he changed a storybook to read to her daughter. But the daughter still insisted on listening to the story of "Green Egg and Ham" that Sam had told her hundreds of times and thousands of times since she was a child.
At this time, Sam began to say to his daughter: "Quick thoughts" This is the first time Sam has been angry with his daughter. The daughter said, "If you can't, I don't want to learn." When Sam learned that this was the reason, his tone became mild: "I will be happy to hear you read." ”
At this moment, after the daughter understood that her father did not mind, she was finally willing to continue to learn new knowledge. However, the daughter's reluctance to learn new knowledge has attracted the attention of the U.S. Family Child Protection Agency, who believe that Sam is mentally insane and unable to raise her daughter, so they want to find Lucy the right adoptive parent. Thus began Lucy's battle for the throne.
Sam and Lucy have a deep affection and are naturally reluctant to give the child to someone else, and in order to fight for custody, Sam's friend finds a lawyer in the newspaper who has never lost. However, because of Sam's special situation, he eventually lost the case. Lucy was eventually adopted.
On this day, Sam took a bouquet of flowers to give to her daughter as a birthday gift, sam looked at his daughter from a distance in the depths of the rich family environment, so he decided not to bother anymore and left disappointed.
When Sam returned home, he locked himself in the house and gave himself up. The lawyer found him, but Sam, who had locked himself in the house, was reluctant to open the door for the lawyer, and the lawyer had to kick them away with his feet. After the lawyer entered, the two of them quarreled, and eventually, persuaded by the lawyer, Sam regained his confidence.
He began working to earn money, and soon Sam moved next door to his daughter Lucy's house. The daughter would sneak into Sam's house every night to find him, and Sam would take Lucy back to her adoptive mother's house after Lucy fell asleep. At first, the adoptive mother thought that Lucy was only dependent on Sam for a while, and it would be better to wait for a long time, but the result was completely different from what the adoptive mother thought. Lucy would come to Sam's house day after day, and this warm love touched her adoptive mother.
On this day, after Sam sent the sleeping Lucy back to her adoptive mother's house, the adoptive mother took Lucy back to Sam's house. The adoptive mother said, "We set her up a warm room, but I'm afraid she still wants to come back to you when she wakes up at our house." Saying that, the adoptive mother put Lucy in her hand and put her in Sam's arms. Tearfully, the adoptive mother said she was willing to help Sam regain custody and promised to help her educate her daughter.
Eventually, Sam won custody of his daughter.

The daughter insisted that her father read "Green Egg and Ham" to him hundreds of times and thousands of times, "Although it is a small act and a small act, it contains full of love for her father Sam." She did not want her intelligence to surpass her father and make him sad, so she chose this way to love him.
A 7-year-old SAM may have some difficulties in taking care of himself, but taking care of Lucy has no complaints, changing diapers, buying milk powder, feeding milk powder... These were the things that were hard for Sam, and he had learned them all for Lucy's sake, and he had done them well. He didn't say "I love you", but did everything he could to love Lucy.
Even if Lucy is adopted by someone else, he still thinks of this Lucy in his heart, for Lucy he chooses to cheer up, for others, it may just be a "daughter", but for Sam, she is the "light" in Sam's heart.
Sam moves next door to Lucy's house for Lucy, and Lucy sneaks to Sam's house to sleep at night in order to be with her father. Such a sincere father-daughter warmth makes people feel very warm.
