      "Quotes"

      "Movies are other people's dreams." "Success is just the tip of the iceberg. But underneath is all your experiences that made that iceberg. And you're the only one who knows what's really down there." "You can't just decide to fix things. ↓ I mean, what am I supposed to do? Just die and that's it? Over and done? Would you prefer that? I wanna get past this. I wanna get to the next thing.” “I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground. So it is, and so it will...

      translation work

      By translating the subtitles of this film, I actually had the opportunity to original translation/proofreading of poems. This subtitle is the first translation of Mr. Tofu in the group, and I proofread and revised it into the translation that was pressed into the film. Write it down and treat it as a primary school student's work. (The level is not high, within the scope of my ability, I tried my best...)

      The old man Lee Hayden (Sam Elliott), who is about to die, stands quietly on the seashore, the waves are rolling, such as his surging heart, his life's farming, and his life's dreams, he will say goodbye soon in this life. In Brett Haley's "Old Heroes" (2017), what touched my heart was not the pain of the old man suffering from a serious illness, but his attitude towards the disease, not even an attitude,...

      Film Review, The Hero of Yesterday

      I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.

      So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind: Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely.

      Crowned with lilies and with laruel they go;

      but I am not resigned.

      When you get old, you can't beat the time

      The career is not smooth, the family is not and the old age is serious. This is a portrayal of many poor people. Life is like a pool of stagnant water, relying on drugs to find pleasure.

      Until the girl suddenly appeared, until the acceptance speech suddenly became popular, life and work seemed to usher in the second spring. I thought that the bitterness had finally come to an end, but the funny thing was that there was only a layer of sugar coating in front of me, and the...

      It's a bit too long, the rhythm is a bit too slow, and even some characters make people feel that there is no need to exist, but there are not many movies cut from the perspective of getting sick and telling family members, and sam elliott's voice, listen to it for a long time. -...
