"Don't... Don't let anyone in, I don't want to be disturbed, please get out of here thank you, "says a gaunt, bearded man with empty, sad eyes at the beginning of the film, Henry Bathers, the film's leading man. If I have to say which movie has touched me the most in recent years, I think it should be only this one. He does not have the warm and touching style of Hachiko, nor the tragic and stirring love like Titanic. His charm makes me unable to describe it briefly, or even interpret the feeling. It is realistic like a mirror, through which we can even reflect on ourselves.

I am not a teacher, but learned from here and the difficulty, when the teacher I don't think many people all contact with the teacher and the same as most of the students, after all, part of psychological teacher is teaching and educating students and parents, and becoming a trash can, they vent is a nanny or security, is also a psychological therapist, A tool man who has never had feelings. At 1:27, the film uses black and white camera to cut the real monologues of several social figures and teachers. Their monologues clearly explain how parents and students "don't understand" teachers and the pressure teachers will inevitably encounter in their career.

Lens transformation to the agent the perspective of teacher Henry, Henry, wearing a white clothes make the man walking in the streets of neon because of life and social pressure and tired he thought "I am a money I like one yuan notes in society, is a magic lantern robbery, elves came out with a loud cry, but tears are for yourself, It can be seen that Henry has been tamed by life, just like the teachers who recorded the truth at the beginning, he has been smoothed out by life, forgotten himself and disappeared on the road of dreams.

End of fate

The school he arrived at was at the end of its life, like an old man on his way out of the world. It was only a matter of time before the school closed because it was filled with the worst students, and everything around the school was affected by their graduation grades. Property prices have fallen and housing numbers have dwindled, so no new students have flooded into schools. The principal also made it clear to him, "You will find that many of your students are performing below the level of their grade, and you need to work hard to improve them. The most important task is to teach the curriculum."

Even so, he accepted it, accepted a group of children whose problems were so big that they affected the whole school, and he turned and walked to his class. When he faced the first boy who vented his dissatisfaction and challenged him, he did not yell at him, but patiently and responsibly told him, "That bag you threw out? There's no feeling, it's empty, and I don't have any feelings that you can hurt, okay? I know you're angry, and I've always been angry. I get it, but you have no right to be angry with me, because I'm one of the few people here who will give you a chance." At that moment, Henry seemed to see through the boy's struggling heart, so he met Meredith, a fat girl who was often bullied in class after school. Maybe fate is the embodiment of cruelty. Even though Henry, the acting teacher, was trying to save and fight against the fate of children, To fulfill my responsibility as a guide and the school went out of business.

The cruelty of reality

The reality is so cruel that you want to set your soul free. It's like what the hero says to Sarah, the female teacher, as he sits in the classroom after Meredith commits suicide due to school bullying: "I've learned a lot today. I'm not human. You may be able to see me, but it's just a shell of me." Of course, fate and reality are cruel, but at the same time, they are always teasing people. Many people in the film are actually on the road to redemption. For example, the street girl whom Henry takes in is under 18 years old, but why does Henry take her in? It was a long time before small make up also think that the social composition because of our desires, but also because of our human kind and beautiful, although some people don't know why I investigate its life to do good, but it really is in salvation, redemption for the goodness of our desire to disrupt, salvation because we desire facing collapse and destruction of you and me, It is also because the end of the redemption film is not very tragic, the girl Henry took in also read a book, found their own hope in life, which reflects the beauty of human nature, so please respect the people around you who are like you to save the good.

Film · General review

The movie "detachment" has been released for a long time, but only a few people really understand, I also dare not say the film was so few words can put the film finish see understand, I said so, of course, doesn't mean it's a bad movie let a person look not to understand, on the contrary, he is a drama movie that I have seen so far is very good film, the film contained in the element, I think anyone who has been in a similar situation will be impressed.
