Education and love in that context

Santino 2022-03-27 09:01:23


History boys express effortlessly. They read books with pleasure. They write papers while thinking. They reflect when they are criticized. They are used to despising teachers. I can always think of my high school days. Although there is a big gap between the education systems of China and the UK, it is difficult to have a big difference in the dreams of young people. The future we want to grasp and the high self-esteem evaluation urge us to work hard. Even if you don't like the current evaluation system. There are some things we always want to pursue. The
only regret is that at that time, we didn't love as hard as Dakin.
For a film, whether you like it or not is only the one you watch. Things in the situation. It is difficult to be moved by the theme of the campus after a long time. But there is still some appreciation. It is a habit to wait for a character like Mr. Keating; It meets my viewing needs. broke the deadlock, but gave me a surprise. The teachers who faced each other in their opinions were not distinct, but each had their own characteristics. They formed a three-pronged battle. Although it is exam-oriented, it stimulates a new mode of thinking, and brings a summative (compared to Hector's divergent associative) learning method; Hector boldly said that "education itself is a kind of pornographic activity" and practiced it personally. His teaching can be described as enjoying literature itself; Tottie, as an interlude, unexpectedly expresses his feelings about history as a woman, which becomes a highlight of the whole film. The group of eight boys is very well portrayed. There are many, mixed beliefs; as an elite group, there are also advantages and disadvantages. It avoids many people and greatly expands the width of the film.
As a teacher, what Hector does has little to do with morality. It has nothing to do with love. It's just a universal love affair between romantics and young men, their vigor and talent, and aimlessly moving forward. Compared with this , Irwin felt a lot more pain in his relationship. Like his conversation with Tottie. "I gave him some comfort. But not much. After all, I have the same trouble." And he refused to admit it This trouble is related to Dakin. He is introverted, but at the same time has low self-esteem. The relationship that has arisen should only die sadly. But Dakin's eagerness gives him hope. Dakin is undoubtedly attractive. He's attracted by his natural "belief that he's attractive". And, he always knows what he wants. Then he chases it hard. Tottie laments his vagina obsession. It doesn't have to be. A quest for the unknown. And once he gets, or finds a better prey, he will stop chasing it. Florian doesn't deserve his love at all, of course, he chooses her only because it's easy to get. And little Jew Too young again. He didn't even understand his own despair. Irwin was different. Irwin showed him a new world. There was an element of adoration in this love, as he began to imitate Irwin's handwriting. But he felt himself Can be conquered. Just like before. Profound is of course Irwin is more profound. But no one can match Dakin when it comes to action. Doesn't Irwin's cowardice when talking about "sucking off" show this? Yet Irwin is Terrible. The reason is that if there is no such questioning, he will be comfortable stopping at that point. In fact, people who are in love with someone are not comfortable stopping. Of course, this love that could have developed due to Unexpected car accident and dumbfounded. He, with him, seemed to agree to forget that agreement. Nothing ever happened. Of course, history is not accidental. History happens like this. In the autobiography, Dakin mentioned that Irwin rode a motorcycle for the first time. There is a sense of complaining in his words. After all, we are faced with a person who has passed away. All we think about is love and guilt. And don't want results.
Little Jude is in a sweet secret love. Although the relationship has been announced. But in terms of mood, I think it is still a secret love. He said, "I don't even know if I want it to pass." Isn't that what we were feeling back then? What is touching is Dakin's hug after the admission. The joke-like words may explain the real mood. However, what he couldn't get, it still passed away lightly.
I always thought that Hector's death had some symbolic meaning. Like Tottie's conversation with Irwin at the end. "It's no longer suitable for teaching methods like that to survive." Hector is mentioned at a considerable level after his death. I'm not referring to the headmaster's evaluation of him, but the whole film. Status. The students are called Hector's children. Contrary to the fact that the headmaster gave Irwin all the credit at the celebration ceremony and Hector could only leave silently. Hector actually represents an era. I guess so. Our nostalgia is ordinary. The masters show a different halo in the old news. They are diligent, but they pay more attention to the essence. We miss the time of the Southwest Associated University. We think, that is the real education. And it is completely today. It cannot be established. Hector represents that era. This, whether it is advocating reverse thinking or something else, Irwin will never be able to do. The
end of everyone at the end also shortens the long process of growth. So grown up.

    good movie! British films really have a strong sense of "drama". It was so exciting for the boys to be quoted in class, and the dialogue was profound and interesting! It makes me think back to my high school classroom really sad. What impressed me deeply was the dialogue between Mr. Fat and Posner, and Posner's singing was very moving, and Irwin was also very popular! After watching this movie, I immediately wanted to read a lot of books, many "useless" and beautiful books.
