,"hero". The film seems desperate at first glance: the beautiful female journalist has been pursuing an exciting subject for many years, trying to discover a hero, rather than scandals that flood the screen with fraud and extramarital affairs. However, she failed this time because the hero she discovered was a fake, and the real hero who saved dozens of lives was a very wretched habitual thief. The fake hero was originally so perfect, so loving, so handsome that she fell in love with him, but now all this has become a worthless lie, she must face the real clown-like hero. The perfect thing finally proved to be nonexistent, and her dream was completely shattered this time. So that she feels that her behavior of creating heroes all the time is so shameful, she cried and said: "I feel like a bitch!"

Fortunately, as the plot developed step by step, a character gradually became cute Get up: The fake hero can't stand the condemnation from his heart and intends to jump off the building. The real hero ran over and said you don’t jump. I don’t care if you pretend to be me. I just want the bonus from you pretending to be me. I want to use it as an educational expense for my son and help me avoid being stolen. Prosecute. At this time, the true hero accidentally fell off the building, and the female reporter who had analyzed the truth thought: The fake guy will not save him. As long as he really dies, no one in the world can prove that the fake is a fake. However, unexpectedly, the fake hero risked his life and selflessly stretched out his hand to catch the real hero, and said to the rescue team who wanted to persuade him not to jump off the building: save him first! Otherwise I don't want to be saved! This righteous and awe-inspiring remark made this counterfeit a hero once again. Both of them were finally rescued. The real hero said to the counterfeit in gratitude: You are really a fucking saint!

Finally, the female reporter asked the fake hero in public: We all think you are a hero. So, do you think you are a hero? The question was very vague, but she knew that the fake hero could understand it. The fake hero replied: Yes, I think we are all heroes. As long as you see us in due course. (We're all heros if you catch us in the right moment) We have a noble and beautiful sentiment in our hearts that will show up at any time. At other moments, we... are not that like heroes. The press only noticed at a certain time, a certain person, not the others. I'm just an ordinary person, not strong-willed but some courage and good conduct.

This answer made the female reporter very satisfied. The dream that had been shattered was now partly picked up. However, this time she is no longer so romantic, her view of heroes has become realistic, and she has a deeper understanding of human nature. She completed the redemption of herself. She did not pursue the truth she wanted (a perfect hero image), but as a reporter, she actually succeeded: she finally found the true truth. The truth is not perfect, but there is hope.

At the same time, the fake hero gained inner peace because he saved the real hero. He also became a hero, his own hero, rather than the hero in the hearts of the audience who were fooled by the TV station. Since the true hero has received a large sum of money, he can no longer be petty and can feed his son. These three people, after this series of events, finally got their own affirmation of themselves, not the affirmation of the society. This is why I think the film is not really desperate.

    Interesting and touching. The unique tones of the 90s movies are simple and sincere, and the characters are particularly vivid. A thief and rogue, but a hero who is genuine and honest, and a handsome homeless man who has nothing to do with the people’s fantasy of a hero. One identity and two. Life has reached a strange symbiosis. In fact, people only want to see what they want to see. This will never change, right?

    Imperfect, unable to find resonance. However, the definition of the fake hero in the film is a three-pointed
