1. Many people mentioned that Pele only has a paragraph in the language book, "What is the best ball you played?" "The next ball", Pele scored 1,283 goals in his life, won three World Cup championships, and laid the foundation for Brazil's achievements. No. 1 in world football, such a illustrious record without an autobiographical film is indeed unreasonable. On the eve of the 1958 World Cup in the film, the 17-year-old boy Bailey and the guest star Bailey meet in a western restaurant. Looking at it with a smile, there is indeed a feeling of time staggering and returning home. It seems that the script should also be personally selected and approved by the football king.
2. Football is a team competition. It does not require individual heroism. Even a football genius needs a team of teammates to display their talents to the fullest. Those who can really turn the tide can quickly convince the people in the team and even change the coach. The strategic play style formulated is well handled in the film. Whether it is the barefoot squad or the national team later, Bailey has indeed played a real "hero" from being ignored to saving his teammates from despair. character, and the friends around him spontaneously surround this genius, and fighting for honor is also quite remarkable. This shows that a true genius must have such a "leadership" who dares to lead people out of danger. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Once such a person appears, the people around him will not interfere, but will appear in the most suitable position. , is also a virtue.
3. Bailey was originally a "shameful nickname" which once made Nascimento (Pele's real name) angry. He became famous in the first battle and the crowd cheered "PELE" unanimously. After that, "PELE" sent him the word every time. The young teammates went from rivals to friends who helped propel Pele to the crown, which, in his father's words, meant "Pele's era". In addition to talent, a real genius has a brave heart and an iron will to endure secular prejudice and cold eyes. This is the well-deserved "ball king".
4. In the film, there is also a contest between the ancient and primitive Renga dancer kick and the European club kick. Renjia represents the wild and free genes of the local culture, while the European kick represents the modern mainstream competitive culture. Even in the film, the entanglement, confusion and return of Renga's playing method allude to the black people's confrontation with racial oppression and cultural colonization, and describe the sense of history in Bailey's Bole and scout Blito, and Bailey is exactly this. A spirit of resistance and cultural inheritor. In the end, the "Jenga" style of play that Bailey insisted on caught the strong European teams by surprise. This victory was not only a victory on the court, but also a victory for Brazil's self-confidence in traditional culture. And convey a clear belief: if the imitation that follows the European culture step by step will never win the respect of the opponent, only the true expression is the real art. However, it can also be seen that the more impoverished developing countries are, the more they regard football as a politics of confrontation with power. This is the case in Brazil, as well as in Argentina and Uruguay. When I watched this film, I even saw that Bailey was a bit like the shadow of "Bruce Bruce", but Bruce Lee is a "Chinese body and Western use" that integrates Eastern and Western sports. In this regard, it seems to be more inclusive than Bailey. The flaw is that Pele doesn't know how to play modern football.
5. Watch this movie with the child. Because it is a foreign language movie, the child fell asleep in her mother's arms. This is a movie suitable for parents to watch. It tells how to respect the child's talent and give the correct education. Bailey's father is also an excellent professional player, but because of his dazzling talent, he suffered a knee injury in the stadium confrontation and was disabled for life. He can only clean the toilet for a living; but he did not stop Bailey from quitting school to pursue football, and became Bailey's lifelong coach. , a bit like the Brazilian version of "Wrestling Dad", the father may not be as good as the mother's care in a child's life, especially the cultural conflict on the court, the exclusion of teammates, the indifference of the coach and the destruction of opponents, such sinister In the competitive environment, the father's choice of the spirit and life path is the most profound to Bailey. At the end of the film, Nacimento's parents cry with each other. "The Birth of a Legend", a fatherly education, is also Bailey's tribute to his family from a slum who persevered in the suffering.
Someone asked me in the circle of friends if this movie is good? I think: This is a good movie for people who are struggling to watch.
