I was surprised to find two things, one is that Ms. Bigelow is 66 years old, I always thought she was in her forties, and her charm and courage are really not retiring, and the other is that she has the same month and the same day as me. Many brave men were born, and for the thousandth time I felt like the tail of a crane. If Ms. Bi was not a director, she might have been a war correspondent. I admire her courage to face challenging subjects.
