Learn From Movies


Today I stayed home and saw two movies, 'Hachi' and 'Where the wild things are'.

The first movie was 'Hachi', an Akita dog story. The movie was reproduced from a Japanese movie, a true story, talked about a loyal dog waited his master back home at the train station for 9 years. This touching story really earned my tears very much. It led me to think about 'the definition of loyalty' on the relationship of our families, friends and career.
I wondered how many people among us could play as a loyal role to others all along our life? We human beings are so easily tempted by materials and outer things. What power can make us as loyal and faithful as the spirit of Hachi?

The second movie was 'where the wild things are', a story about the adventure of a clever child after a quarrel with his mother. It's a creative movie and filled with abundent emotions. As I gooled for the introduction of this movie, I just knew it was produced from a children's book, a painting book. Wow! How amazing to make them vivid in the movie!
The boy, Max, grew mature through this experience. I think many of us are as same as Max, 'wisdom grows with experience'. We learn the tips of success from our failures. We become considerate because of understanding each other. We know to cherish after we lose something. Anyway, it's never too late to learn, isn't it?
