"Weakness" review

By chance, I saw the movie "Weakness". This is a warm and inspirational film, it is easy to touch the softest part of human nature. The theme of this film is very simple, when you save others, you will also fulfill yourself, that is, as the saying goes: Give a person a rose, and leave a fragrance in your hand.
The film mainly tells the story of the protagonist Michael leaving his mother because of a broken family, and then living on the streets. He was admitted to the school because of his athleticism, but his academic grades were consistently zero and there was nowhere to go. Mrs. Tao Xi's family accepted him and made him feel the warmth of home. At school, the loyal Mike was often given the cold shoulder. However, with the help of Mrs. Tausy, Oher gradually found himself, he began to slowly integrate into the white society, and began to gradually accept his new identity. Mrs. Tausy saw Michael's amazing strength and athleticism, and she wanted to develop him into a great football player. Because of Michael's outstanding performance in school games, he has attracted the invitation of school football coaches all over the country, and has won many battles. But Michael's academic performance has been poor, and Tao Xi hired a tutor to help him with his homework. Michael eventually earned his diploma, was accepted to the University of Mississippi, and went on to become an All-American professional football star.
The English name of "Weakness" is actually called "the Blind side", so the film may also be called the blind spot. Blind spots, as the name suggests, are things that you can't see and ignore. There is one little point in the film that particularly struck me, and that was Michael's biological mother. Mike has lived in a black neighborhood with a sinister environment since he was a child, but he has always maintained a kind-hearted nature because his mother taught him since childhood that he should close his eyes when something bad happens, and then open his eyes after the bad thing has passed. The world is still a beautiful place. , this blind spot of life keeps Mike pure. In our society, we are used to seeing too much misfortune, and more and more misfortune can make us feel increasingly numb and indifferent to the ugly things in life. In fact, the blind spot here is not only the blind spot of vision, but also refers to forgetting those bad things and maintaining a pure heart.
But fortunately, Mrs. Tausy found Mike and saved his life, his destiny, and his life. I think, not only did Mrs. Tausy save Mike, but Mike also fulfilled the meaning of Mrs. Tausy's life. Therefore, perfecting others is also perfecting oneself.
There is also a blind spot in the film, which is the climax of the film, the highest point of contradiction: under the psychological suggestion of the investigator, Mike thinks that Mrs. Tucci and his family are good to him, and he just wants to use himself and let himself enter the University of Mississippi for them. alma mater. He felt extremely helpless and wanted to escape. At the moment when the conflict was resolved, Mike's relationship with the Taosi family was even stronger. What he said to the investigator was very touching: "Why didn't you ask me, why would I want to go to the University of Mississippi? That's because My family is studying there, so I want to go there." Just this sentence, all misunderstandings, unwillingness and doubts have been resolved.
Some people think it's a movie with a dream, but I think it's a movie full of love. When Mrs. Tucci drove Mike to the black neighborhood, Mike told her to stay in the car and wait for him and not come out; when Mrs. Tucci took him to buy clothes, he comforted Mrs. Tucci and told her not to be afraid, He would cover her; when Mike drove little Sean out and accidentally got into a car accident, Mike used his arm to help little Sean block the fatal blow; others cast a strange look at Mike who was going to the library for self-study Collins sat next to him without hesitation... In Mike's consciousness, he was their family. When his family was in danger, he should stand up without hesitation. The love between the Tausys and Mike is a kinship that transcends race, religion and belief. In this film, I personally prefer sj. He is like a little adult. When Mrs. Tucci brought Mike back, he accepted him from the beginning. His lively kindness, sunshine and warmth subtly influenced Mike. , after all, he is the person who spends the most time with Mike.
Each of us has some unavoidable shortcomings in life and reality. We don’t have to escape for this, open our hearts, be tolerant to ourselves, and let our hearts find a place to live. Every individual has weaknesses and strengths. But some of us are constantly ashamed of our weaknesses and become afraid to face things. However, his own advantages are hidden by himself, and he has always only paid attention to his most vulnerable places, which makes it difficult to exert his potential and gradually becomes weak. Only by looking directly at your weaknesses and in your own heart can you become strong.
Have you ever helped others with your little effort? Some people think that this is a society in which the strong eat the weak and the fittest survive. I don't think so, I think this should be a society full of warmth and mutual love between people. Love requires mutual perception and mutual transmission. Love is an eternal theme, and different people have different understandings. The singer said: love is your hand, touch my pain, love is to use my heart, listen to your sorrow and joy; the poet said: love is to use a little love, a hug can warm the whole world; the philosopher said : Love is to use your heart, my love, and her will to paint the color of idealism; the painter said: love is the huge arms that open in the blue sky, embracing the dark gray geese soaring; ordinary I want to say : Love is a sincere payment between hearts, an equal exchange, and love is the bond of blood and kinship.
Love needs to be inherited, but also needs to be passed on.
