October Sky Comments

    4+ The most moving movie I've seen in the past four months. State affairs, family affairs, heaven and foreign affairs, everything is covered; teacher's kindness, father's love, community affection, boxing in the heart. A dream-chasing teenager who has a vision and is willing to sacrifice will always be a hero in his heart. When the west wind is rising, please let those who climb into the sky enter the sky and those who enter the ground enter the ground. The script is excellent, the soundtrack...

    In 1999, the American inspirational film "October Sky" starred Jake Gyllenhaal, when he was still a little fresh meat. This is a story about the present, poetry and distance. Whether he graduated from high school and inherited his father's business to dig coal, or made rockets with his partners and flew in the blue sky. He persevered, fought and worked hard. For the seed of the dream in his heart, I admire his unwillingness to compromise with ordinary...

    The Soviet sputnik in the October sky ignited the rocket dream of a 17-year-old boy in a West Virginia coal mining town. With the support of everyone in the town, including the last stubborn father, Homer's dream has been transformed step by step to lead to a remarkable...

    Before the teenager broke his back, he professionally stole the rails, and by the way, he studied the jumping sky...

    Peaceful inspirational film. It is not difficult to have a dream, it is difficult to persevere. Gyllenhaal looked invincible when he was young. What he said to his father at the end of the mine was really nice, and the father-son relationship was very...

    Hey! Vince! Hey! Pico!...

    The comments seem to agree. ----> Those young people who have dreams are always easy to move... But such stories can never happen in China, because there is no teacher who actively encourages students, no teacher who dares to admit mistakes, and no risk There are no workers who help others, no students who have been persistent, no friends who are not red-eyed for honor, and all of the above are...

    A typical American inspirational film, all the elements are available, this type of film is a bit immune to watching too much. The protagonist not only has dreams, but also has a super hard-working spirit, which is admirable. The part of stealing the rails is very...

    This movie seems to be based on a real story. In the end, Homer was subtitled and later became a training engineer for the space agency. There was no thrilling plot, but I cried three times while watching it. What excites me is the persistent pursuit spirit, and the success of unremitting efforts...

    For everything, love is the best teacher~

    I thought it was just an ordinary inspirational film based on facts, but I was still moved after watching it.

    The story takes place in a coal mining town in the United States. Except for a very small number of boys who can be admitted to universities by virtue of their sports expertise, most...

October Sky quotes

  • O'Dell: Besides, didn't your dad say no more rockets?

    Homer: No, he said no more rockets on company property.

    O'Dell: Do you realize how far we'd have to go to be off company property?

    Homer: Yeah, we'd have to go to Snakeroot.

    Quentin: Snakeroot? That's eight miles!

    Homer: It's not *that* far. I mean we could walk if we had to...

    O'Dell: Hey, walk! Heh! That's a great idea!

    Homer: Come on let's go!

    Roy Lee: Wait the hell up, will you Homer? Now I got about as much chance of winning that science fair as you do winning a football scholarship. I know I'm gonna be a miner. I've known my entire life. What the hell's so bad about mining coal anyway?

    Homer: Nothing Roy Lee. It's great. That's why your stepdaddy is the biggest drunk in West Virginia! I mean, come on guys! You know the mine'll kill you!

    [to Quentin]

    Homer: You ever hear the story about how O'Dell's dad died?

    Roy Lee: Homer... will you forget it, man?

    O'Dell: Shut up, Homer.

    Homer: Piece of slate caught him right in the neck... and it cut his head clear off.

    O'Dell: [tackles Homer] You son of a bitch!

  • Homer: [gunshot in background] Hey Quentin!

    [another gunshot]

    Homer: That rocket had to have gone up at least 100 feet didn't it?

    Quentin: More like two hundred.

    [another gunshot]

    Homer: Goddammit.

    Homer: [another gunshot] Will you cut it out, Roy Lee?

    Roy Lee: Die you son of a bitch!

    [fires another round into the grill of his broken down car]
