Four films this week

I have watched a lot of films this week such as In and out(新郎向後跑) ,Sleepless in Seattle(西雅圖夜未眠), The bucket list(一路玩到掛) , and Jersey girl(紐澤西愛未眠).

I would recommend all of them because they are really inspiring films.

‘In and out’ is a film that Donna showed us in the oral training class. Why would she show us this film? Well, this is a film discussing about the self-confidence, the stereotype toward the love, and the self-esteem orderly. First, Howard who is a generous guy as literature teacher inspires countless students. One of his students then becomes a super star in Hollywood and gives a speech about his influential teacher, Howard that is gay. Suddenly, Howard’s life is in chaos. He tries to repress his sexual orientation, but he can’t continue lying himself after he got kissed. Therefore, he decides not to get married with a girl who has waited him for three years. In contrast, this girl who is not confident of herself is crying all over because she thinks there is no good guy in the world. Even worse, a gay teacher is not able to teach anymore because the board of directors dismisses his job. However, he is a competent teacher who helps many students enroll into ideal universities. Besides, he is just honest to himself and comes out of his secret to everyone. Who should be blamed for it and is he doing something wrong ? Anyway, this film brings a lot of controversial issues up. It leaves a lot of spaces to be discussed.

‘Jersey girl’ talks about a father who independently raises a kid and sets a good example to every man in the world. ‘how can he have no sex life for 7 years’ said cashier in the video shop. Hence, this cashier decides to have sex with him, but his kid just came home witness them making out. Then this kid starts to blame both of them in a serious tone. It reminds me that this girl really needs a new mother and help her understand the changes on her body. Finally, this man decides to quit a well-paid job in New York, and he is in a hurry to attend his kid’s performance. He finally knows that only family can give him the biggest happiness in the world. Though he has some quarrels with his father or his daughter sometimes, those fights stabilize their relationships more tightly.

As for ‘The bucket list’ and’ Sleepless in Seattle ’, I will comment on them next time
