Inspirational films about life:
1. "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" Be prepared and wait for happiness to knock on the door
Movie introduction: It tells the inspiring story of a down-and-out salesman who was on the verge of bankruptcy and whose wife left home. He worked hard to fulfill his responsibilities as a single parent, worked hard to become a stock market trader, and finally became a well-known financial investor.
The protagonist Chris Garner used all his savings to buy a high-tech treatment device and sold it to hospitals everywhere. However, the price was high and not many people accepted it. No matter how hard he tried, he could not provide a good living environment for his wife and children, so he finally chose to leave home. From then on, he and his son Christopher lived together.
? Chris finally got an internship opportunity at a stock investment company. Even if he was not paid and had only a 5% chance of success, he still worked hard. His son was his strength. He was looked down upon and hid with his son in a public toilet in a subway station and lived in a church shelter. He always believed that happiness would come tomorrow.
? Thoughts after watching: After watching this film, I felt a lot of emotions! The first thing that impressed me the most was what the protagonist Chris said to his son: "Don't let others tell you what to do. If you have a dream, you have to protect it. If others can't do something, just tell you that you can't do it either." "If you want something, go for it." Yes, he always has a goal in his heart and knows what he wants. After having a dream, he can persevere and work hard even if he encounters setbacks! If you have a dream, don’t be afraid of pain!
In those lives that usually seem to us to be glamorous and successful on the surface, do you know how much hard work they have put in behind the scenes? How much hardship did you suffer? How many grievances have you suffered? How many times have you even cried? So, what supports them to persist step by step? It’s also because of dreams and goals! It is a consistent belief!
With faith and dreams, you can grit your teeth and get through it no matter how unsatisfactory it is! Based on my personal experience, I often encounter some difficulties and setbacks in both work and personal life. For example, when I encounter a bottleneck in my performance, my relationship is not going well, I have some trivial issues with my parents, etc., I often cry in the middle of the night and occasionally suffer from insomnia. At that time, I wonder why God is so unfair to me. Even so, I have a stubborn personality and refuse to It is easy to give up, but there is no perfect path. I always believe that as long as I work hard, my destiny will turn around.
After crying, I wiped away my tears. I am still me. I continue to look forward in life! I continue to work hard and find various ways to solve the difficulties. In fact, God is fair. I am still positive and struggling in the face of adversity. God will also take care of you when you work hard! Even if you don't achieve success, if you just give up when you encounter various setbacks at the time, you won't have any progress and growth insights later! It’s not scary to fall down. What’s scary is that you can’t stand up again! This is also what I felt deeply after watching the film!
? Why do some people fail and others succeed? Because people who fail in the end start to complain as soon as they encounter a trough, and always focus on the difficulty itself. They are pessimistic and negative, give up on themselves, and ultimately end up in failure.
And those who are unsuccessful at the beginning but succeed in the end, just like the protagonist of the film, have a positive and optimistic attitude when encountering difficulties, and always focus on how to get rid of difficulties. As long as there is an opportunity, even if there is no reward, they will still succeed. Work hard! Rise up from adversity and ultimately achieve success! Be prepared and wait for happiness to knock on your door! 2. "Schindler's List" is a movie, an epic, a piece of history, and the trauma and soul of a nation.
Video introduction: This is a true story that happened between the Nazis and the Jews during World War II! During World War II, Schindler, a German speculator and member of the Nazi party, opened a factory to produce military supplies and made a fortune in the war. His factory only used the cheapest Jewish laborers. His factory also became a refuge for Jews, serving as a refuge for these Jews. Producers of war products were protected from massacre. Schindler became increasingly dissatisfied with the Nazis' brutal persecution of the Jews. In 1943, the brutal bloodbath of the Jews in Krakow by the Nazis disillusioned Schindler's last illusions about the Nazis. From then on, Schindler had only one idea: to protect as many Jews as possible from the Nazis. Death threats from Swithin. He drew up a list of 1,000 workers who he claimed were "necessary" for the normal operation of the factory, and bribed Nazi officials so that they could survive. He was increasingly suspected of violating racial laws, but he cleverly avoided persecution every time and, as always, risked his life to rescue Jews. When a train transporting his female workers was delayed to Auschwitz, he spent a large sum of money chasing the female workers back to his factory.
Soon, the Soviet Red Army came to Krakow and announced to the surviving Jews working in Schindler's factory that the war was over. One night when it was snowing heavily, Schindler said goodbye to the workers, and more than 1,000 rescued Jews saw him off.
They gave Schindler an auto-signature affidavit to prove that he was not a war criminal. Some people even knocked out their own gold teeth and made a gold ring as a gift to Schindler. On the ring was engraved a Jewish saying: Saving one life is equivalent to saving all mankind. Schindler burst into tears, feeling deeply pained by his failure to save more Jews, even though all his fortune had been spent on saving Jewish lives. In the heavy snow, the Jews watched Schindler leave the city. His righteous deeds will always be remembered.
Thoughts after watching: My first feeling after watching this film: Very shocking! A Nazi Party member was able to risk his own life to save the lives of 1,000 Jews. This was incredible from the perspective of the cruel history at that time!
? In fact, this is also exploring the development trajectory of human nature under a special historical environment. Human nature is multi-faceted. First of all, human nature is greedy. People die for money and birds die for food. People run around in order to make more money. Like Schindler, who originally opened a factory to make more money. .
So where do you go after making money? This brings us to the second aspect. After Schindler made money, he spent it all in order to save others. His kind deeds are remembered by the world, which is why Schindler earned so much money! Human nature is inherently greedy and human nature is inherently good, and the latter occupies more of it. Here is a list of the best things in the world! Human nature is restored to its essence and is kind! Regardless of race, gender, or special historical circumstances. There are also many kind and good people in our real life. In the final analysis, in a word, there are still many good people in the world.
3. "Braveheart" is an inspirational film for men! Hollywood-specific heroism, saving the world single-handedly!
Film introduction: The film is based on the palace politics of England in the 13th and 14th centuries, with war as the core, telling the story of the indomitable struggle between William Wallace, the leader of the Scottish uprising, and the English rulers. The film was released in the United States in May 1995.
It has always been regarded as a tragic epic film that combines the legend of blood and tears. In the film, people are not only moved by the mountains of Scotland, the sad bagpipes and the sad cries of the Scottish people in the pain of poverty. , and was inspired by Wallace's indomitable spirit.
The spirit of William Wallace was like a flag, guiding the people of Scotland to fight for their final freedom. ?
? Thoughts after watching: The most profound impression after watching the film is: the "Freedom" he screamed with his only strength during the final execution was shocking. It allowed me to see a vivid image of a man's true nature, a man of iron bones, tenderness, and strong blood. In European words, "freedom" means "liberation". For freedom, rise up, fight bloody battles for freedom, fight to the death for freedom, and sacrifice your life for freedom! This reminds me of one of Petofi's poems: Life is precious, love is more valuable, and both can be thrown away for the sake of freedom! His poem couldn't be more appropriate to describe Wallace's actions!
Wallace is the hero who changed the history of Scotland, and behind him has always been the soul of Melun, or it can be said that it was Melun who made Wallace become a hero. So, in my opinion, men change history, and women make men change history. I have to say that "Braveheart" is really touching, not only about Wallace's love for Mellen, but also about his love for Scotland and the Scottish people. In the fierce battle of swords, swords, shadows, and iron-blooded battles, tender love lingers, making people feel the iron-bone tenderness of heroes. Worth a look! 4. "The Shawshank Redemption" is a hymn to American egocentrism!
Movie introduction: This film is adapted from a novel. The background is the 1930s. At that time, "political corruption in the United States was late to businessmen" and even affected prisons.
In the story, the young banker Andy was sentenced to life imprisonment because his wife and her lover were killed. Due to the corruption in the prison, he still could not get justice even when the truth was about to be revealed. He suffered all kinds of mental and physical torture in Shawshank Prison. However, Andy was not ruined by his unfortunate fate. After more than 20 years of tireless digging, he finally crawled out of a 500-yard-long sewage pipe on a thunderstorm night and regained his freedom in Mexico. Living a life of a free man by the sea.
Shawshank Prison is a place of dehumanization. The dark and long-term mental torture in the prison has institutionalized every prisoner. Rhett's words are thought-provoking: "When you first go to prison, you hate the high walls around you. Slowly, you get used to living in them. Finally, you find that you have to rely on them to survive."
The story of the pigeon and the prisoner Brooke is horrifying to hear. A prisoner raised a pigeon when he was in prison. He always liked to take the pigeon to hang around in a corner of the sports ground when he was released. After 8 years, he was released from prison. The day before he was released from prison, he let the pigeon fly. The pigeon, the pigeon immediately flew away beautifully. However, a week later, Andy saw the pigeon again in the corner of the sports ground. The pigeon lay there like dung. The pigeon had been institutionalized by prison life. The sports ground The corner became its entire living space. After it was released, it returned there. No unfed pigeons starved to death in that place.
There is also the prisoner Brooke. He has been in Shawshank Prison for decades. How to live, when he was paroled, he held the parole document in one hand and the bus ticket in the other hand, crying as he walked, and died in a poor elderly home in less than a year. Everyone who came out of Shawshank became a walking zombie, let alone retaining their humanity.
Thoughts after viewing: Shawshank symbolizes darkness and evil. The protagonist Andy did not wait for God to redeem him, but relied on his persistence in good humanity to save himself and others, win freedom, and realize Rebirth! People, no matter when and where they are, must stick to kindness and work hard! Save yourself!
5. "Forrest Gump" Fools are blessed!
Video introduction: It tells the inspirational story of Forrest Gan, a small town boy who was born with mental retardation, who constantly strives for self-improvement, and finally gets the blessing of God and creates miracles in many fields.
? Thoughts after watching: After reading the story of Forrest Gump, I realized the importance of the wisdom cultivation of women and mothers in a family!
Because Forrest Gump’s success was initially due to his mother with a strong personality. Without his mother, his subsequent achievements may not have been possible! She often encouraged Forrest Gump that "foolish people are blessed by fools" and asked him to strive for self-improvement.
A person's life achievements are closely related to the family environment, education he received since childhood, and the character of his parents. In particular, the mother's character, wisdom, and cultivation will affect the child's life, and the child may be the future pillar of the motherland. Goethe said it well, glorious women can guide mankind to sublime! Therefore, as girls, we should pay more attention to the cultivation of our own moral character and wisdom, cultivate both internal and external aspects, and strive to enrich ourselves.
? To borrow a sentence from Dong Qing, what kind of person do you want your children to be in the future? You need to be the kind of person you want first!
?
6. "The Biography of Gandhi" This film records the epic and legendary life of Indian Mahatma Gandhi!
Movie introduction: It tells the story of Mahatma Gandhi who advocated non-violent policies and won the trust and love of the poor people. Despite repeated setbacks, he persisted in using hunger strikes and other means to force the British government to agree to India's independence.
After watching: I remember what Gandhi said in the film: When I am desperate, I will remember that in history, only truth and love can win. There are many tyrants and villains in history who may have been invincible in the short term, but eventually failed. Think about it, it will always be like this.
Gandhi used non-violent non-cooperation to advocate the Indian people against British colonial rule. He was ultimately victorious and the British flag descended from the skies over India. This moment marked the end of British colonial rule by Indians and India could become autonomous.
Because of this, in the eyes of Indians, Gandhi is the father of their country. Therefore, he can even use hunger strikes to awaken the nation. This shows how important others are in the minds of Chinese people.
? Gandhi spent almost all his life running for the nation, but he had nothing when he died. Because he is a civilian, he does not have any titles or political rights. However, he has allowed hundreds of millions of people to support him so much, which really reminds people of greatness. Great, yes, I use the word "great" to describe Gandhi.
Classic romance films:
1. "Titanic" Eternal Heart!
Film introduction: This film is based on the incident in 1912 when the Titanic cruise ship hit an iceberg and sank on its maiden voyage. It tells the story of two people from different classes, Jack, a poor painter, and Rose, an aristocratic woman. A touching story about abandoning worldly prejudices and falling in love, and finally giving up the chance of life to Rose.
1. We are women, and our choices are never easy.
2. I think life is a gift, and I don’t want to waste it. You don’t know what the next hand of cards will be, so you must learn to accept life.
3. God wipes away all their tears. There is no more death, no more sorrow and parting between life and death, no more pain, because the past is over.
Thoughts after watching: I have only watched this classic film once, and I burst into tears when I saw the end! A very touching romance film! She only praised love, but none of it could compare with it! No matter which angle. Well worth a look!
? A classic love legend performed on the Titanic. The luxurious liner; the exquisite interior; the spectacular scenes; the contemporary color rendering; the appropriate music background; and the legendary love story, all of which reflect Cameron's unique ingenuity. Although the love story in the film is popular, the actors' emotional interpretations will make the audience unforgettable for a long time. The director can turn an ordinary love story into a magical one and interpret it to such a perfect state. One cannot but admire the director's grasp of the eternal theme of truth, goodness and beauty. .
I also recommend that the theme song of the film "My Heart Will Go On" is so nice! !
2. Every city in "Roman Holiday" has its own uniqueness and is unforgettable. It's hard to say, Rome! Anyway, that's Rome. I will cherish the memories of my visit here forever.
Film introduction: This film tells the story of royal princess Anne traveling privately during her visit to Rome and encountering American journalist Joe. Joe first wanted to secretly photograph the princess, but eventually fell in love with her. Anne was initially tired of the royal family's red tape, but after a one-day vacation in Rome, she realized her responsibility to the country and reluctantly abandoned her love and returned to the embassy.
? Thoughts after watching: At first, I watched this movie mainly because of Audrey Hepburn. I prefer Hepburn’s natural look, without or needing any dressing up or modification. Between the gestures, words and deeds, affectionateness reveals a simple, lovely, beautiful and generous temperament.
? Anyone who meets her will be infected by the unique temperament exuded by her and become obsessed with her. Audrey Hepburn. This blockbuster debut of hers not only won the Academy Award for Best Actress, but also set off "Hepburn fever" in the 1950s with its freshness and elegance. In terms of the film's entertainment effect and artistic value, this film is also a critically acclaimed classic. Director Wyler integrated the famous Roman sights and scenery into the plot, and the handsome Pike was a perfect match for Hepburn, making this romantic comedy very warm and pleasing to the eye.
Let’s talk about love. Love is an eternal topic in this world, and human beings themselves are the product of love. The oldest and most mysterious. It's hard to guess and touch. That's why it has the infinite charm to influence the soul! And Hepburn came to the world as if carrying this mission, showing the most beautiful love to the world. This angel who fell into the mortal world brought his beauty and love to the world, and then waited for reincarnation and quietly disappeared.
Reading literary films:
1. "Austin Book Club"
Video introduction: It tells the story of several Austin book fans who organized a book club together. Discussing Austen's works helped me regain my correct life track.
After watching: For me, watching such a film is simply a kind of spiritual enjoyment. In the film, you will see young and old holding an Austen novel and immersing themselves in it, searching for the love. A better self, a better life. This makes me more aware of the importance of reading, and at the same time, I always firmly believe that good reading will make a person, a family, and even a country become better and better! However, according to media reports, Chinese people read an average of 0.7 books per year. Compared with South Korea’s 7 books per capita, Japan’s 40 books, and Russia’s 55 books, the amount of Chinese people read is pitifully small.
Chinese people play mahjong, play mobile phones, games, etc. everywhere in their spare time. Then I am thinking, if we in China replace most of the mahjong stalls, game halls, etc. book club. Then, the quality and cultivation of the people will also be improved to a higher level! As the spirit becomes richer, the happiness index should also increase!
2. "Afternoon with Margaret" is about reading, about words, and about warmth, fresh and beautiful!
Movie introduction: This is the story of an elusive encounter that can change one person's entire life: Germain, a man in his 50s who is almost illiterate. He met an old but knowledgeable lady, Margaret. Germain lived in his mother's garden, usually taking care of his vegetable garden and pigeons, hanging out in small bars with his friends, and sometimes chatting with his young His girlfriend Annette was romantic and tender in his RV and had been living a peaceful life. He doesn't know who his father is, that his mother got pregnant with him when she didn't want him, and tells him she didn't want him in the first place. When he was in elementary school, his teacher disliked him because of his "wooden fish brain." His buddies in the bar liked him very much, but often laughed at him. In fact, Germain is not a pure "brainless", he is just a stone with diamonds that no one wants to carve.
If his mind is always "blank and unenlightened", it is because people have not cultivated it. One day, Germain met Margaret in the park while raising pigeons and reading chapters of the novel aloud, and something began to sprout in his desolate mind.
? The agronomist Margaret retired at home and now lives alone, but the aging Margaret has spent almost her whole life traveling around the world and reading literary works. Therefore, Germain gave his afternoon time to Margaret's reading, and Germain also discovered the magic of books from Abel Camus' philosophical novel "The Plague" written in a symbolic way, which made him Think about things you would never have thought about before.
? However, when Margaret's eyesight deteriorates and she can no longer read aloud, Germain will read aloud to her out of "love" for this naughty but serious grandmother.
? p>
This is a story about those simple and real people, which is both touching and interesting, and full of spiritual food. It shows that it is not difficult for people to learn, and it is never too late to be happy. It is books that make people discover love, and it is love that makes people find books.
Thoughts after viewing: In the bright afternoon sunshine, watching a rich French literary film is like sitting in an outdoor cafe on the street and reading a beautiful prose. The reason why I like French movies is because French movies have the personality of the French nation, full of romantic atmosphere and humanistic thinking, and always show the pursuit of a better life.
? The most beautiful emotion in life, she lives in words in the name of flowers! Their stories tell us that love is not the only thing in the world of love!
3. "Dead Poets Society" "Listen to the Voice of the Heart", like "The Pursuit of True Love", has endured in the history of movies.
Video introduction: The film tells the story of an introverted man in 1959. Todd Anderson went to Wilton Preparatory College. His roommate Neil was sunny and cheerful, but he was controlled by his father every day. One day, their class welcomed a new teacher, John Keating, who offered an anti-traditional education. He introduced many thoughtful poems to students and advocated free and divergent thinking, which caused a huge response. Gradually, some people accepted him and began to bravely take charge of their own lives. I had read Thoreau's "Walden Pond" before. ”, and Thoreau’s sentence was also written on the title page of the Poetry Society:
“I went to the woods because I wanted to live cautiously, facing only the basic facts of life, to see if I could learn I need to learn what life has to teach me, so that when I am dying, I will not realize that I have never lived at all. I don't want to live a non-life life, life is so lovely; but I also don't want to practice a secluded life, unless it is absolutely necessary. I want to live so deeply that I absorb the essence of life, live steadily, and live in a Spartan style, so as to eradicate everything that is not life, mark out a mowing area, and carefully Cutting or pruning compresses life into a corner, reducing it to the lowest conditions. If it proves to be humble, then realize all the true humbleness and reduce its humbleness. Publish it to the world; or, if it is noble, experience it with personal experience, so that I can make a true report on my next trip. Because, I think, most people are still not sure whether their lives belong to the devil or to God. However, they make a somewhat rash judgment and think that the main goal of life is to "glorify God and serve God forever." There is joy”.
? Classic line sharing:
1. When you read, don’t just think about the author’s thoughts... think in your own way.
? The above are the most classic movies I have ever seen. After watching these movies, I will have a new and multi-angle thinking about life and certain things in real life, and I will also learn from my thinking. I learned the true meaning of life!
