After watching this video, the first thing that came to my mind was a song sung by Hilary Duff., The impressive line in the song is:
"Wake up, wake up
On a Saturday night
Could be New York
Maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris
Maybe Tokyo
There's something going on anywhere I go...
"A masterpiece of the early 1990s, starring two much-loved actors, Robert De Niro and Robin Williams, who play a medical-minded brain doctor who, by chance, passes a Drugs that have not yet passed clinical research have allowed the patient played by Robert De Niro to walk out of a dream for decades. After waking up, Robert De Niro gradually integrated into this new world with the help of Robin Williams, but the good times did not last long, due to the research on drug properties. Not thorough enough, Robert De Niro's disease has relapsed again, and despite the two of them trying to save it, in the end everything is back to where it started...
From the teens to the fifties, one person replicates all the experiences of the past in another era , but he can feel the joy of life, the gift of life, the freedom of life and the surprise of life. But the world wants a cage to imprison his dream in a small hospital, when he wants to break through the cage and real life When he touched the world, he found that it was too late. It turned out that the second life that God gave him was only a short period of time. When everything returned to the past, there was no longer confusion and expectation in his eyes, perhaps, pride. And regret will not appear around the corner of the eye.
As a doctor who has lived a healthy life for decades, he has been working hard for a dream all his life. Maybe he was so close to success, but when he came to the bottom of his life again, Only then did he realize that inadvertently, the man who had been dormant for decades has realized the true meaning of happiness in life: work, play, friendship, family.
Robin Williams' performance in this film is very restrained and just right to move, His image as a life mentor was also established through this film. Whether he was a later doctor, professor or literature teacher, he could not only be respected by the characters in the film, but also unanimously recognized by the audience.,,The same is true.
Robert De Niro's eyes and body language don't need to be multi-lingual, found in the "If you enjoyed this title, our database also recommends" column of the IMDB filmIn this film, comparing the two, De Niro's performance is no less than that of Jack Nicholson.
In short, as a film in the early 1990s, there is no big scene or any small sensation, but it is enough to impress everyone. You are lucky to have watched this movie.

    The films in the 90s were about human nature, there was no fast food, no illogical blood, violence and pornography, only the awakening of human nature. I talked about waking up three times. The first time was the improvement of De Niro and the patients after taking medicine. The interrupted life started again. The second is De Niro's love, the dancing part is heartbreaking; the third is Robin's, he wasted his and nurse's lives for decades, was a sinner, but fortunately finally woke up.

    3+ Very American style floating clouds. All kinds of deja vu.. Values ​​are also typical of the American middle class. If you understand it from romanticism, you might be able to appreciate it, but the plot should not be considered. De Niro's characters are used to show off his acting skills, and Williams handles the details well. At the end, the title "Advocating Humanistic Treatment" and the topic "Awakening the Audience to Cherish Ownership" was finally added, but the occasion was far-fetched. Post-en
