The hero
The hero that I want to talk about right now is Chris Gardner. Maybe you have heard about him in a famous movie 《The Pursuit of Happyness》. What is hero? who is eligible to be called a hero? That is a big problem that people like to talk about. But as I see it, hero is not a person who has super ability when he was born and use that to save the world. When a person holds on to his believes, never give up and tries his best to solve the problems, even if he knows he might get hurt, might fail and how much hardship he will have. It's impossible for everyone to have the special talent, but everyone can be hero as long as you want. Just like Chris Gardner, When Chris saw graffiti in the "happyness" spelling error, he said these words: There is no y in happiness, There is i. (y or Why).Yes, there is no happiness in the why, the only others only their own happiness. Why blame others than their own happiness is meaningless, only rely on their own can be happy. He strives to be a good dad, protect his poor family, achieve his dream, but the biggest problem is he doesn't have money. He cries in the bathroom at the train station with his son at Christmas Eve, I promise he hates himself at that moment because he even couldn't provide his son a place to stay at a cold night. Even though, he doesn't give up. When he was at the lowest ebb, he said" If you got a dream, you got to protect it." to his son seriously. He can go back to work with a shoe after he was hitting by a car. He was abandoned by his wife, refused by every companies outside the doors, expelled by the landlord......the only spiritual backbone is his son. He must to protect him. All these difficult experience made him become a real hero, not only just affect his son, but all the people who was moved by him.

Theme: The Noble Sacrifice
Painted Skin 1
This movie is baced on a Chinese classic story which has been very famous in a long time.
During Qin and Han dynasties years, there was a heroic general called Wang Sheng who was the leader in a town. He had a virtuous and beautiful wife named Pei Rong. They loved each other,also, they were respected and supported by everyone.
Once while Wang Sheng was leading his soldiers to fight with a group of enemy successfully, he saved a mysterious woman called Xiao Wei, which was plunder by the enemy. She is so wonderful and beautiful that all the soldiers liked her. But Xiao Wei just fell in love at first sight to Wang Sheng. But she was a fox goblin that more than 900 years old.
Wang Sheng took her home and began to take care of her like his sister. He realized how strong Xiao Wei loved him. But he still was loyal to his virtuous wife, and refused to marry to Xiao Wei when she asked.
In fact, Xiao Wei’s skin is not real, she needed to eat people’s hearts to keep her young beautiful skin fresh every day. There was a lizard goblin who had loved her for about several hundreds years helped her to kill people and provided her the most fresh hearts. Some people’s death made the whole town covered with strange atmosphere after Xiao Wei’s coming. But nobody distrusted her because she looked so weak to kill others, everyone believed her except a girl named Xia Bing, who’s grandfather was well-known as catching evil goblins. But she could not find any evidence.
Gradually, Pei Rong also realized Xiao Wei loved his husband and felt she was different from normal people. She began to worry about that. She didn’t want to lose her family because of the other’s lure.
On a cold night, Xiao Wei asked Pei Rong to go into her room and told her she killed these people and she needed to eat hearts. Then she showed Pei Rong what she look like under the skin, it was horrible. And she threatened Pei Rong to make a deal with her:Pei Rong was asked to drink a special medicine which would make her hair get white and make her tears get red. Then she needed to tell all the people that she killed these people who were dead. If she didn’t do that, Xiao Wei would kill all the people in the town.
Pei Pong was so kind that accepted Xiao Wei’s deal, even if she knew she would lose her husband and die because of the medicine. Because she wanted to save everyone’s life, except herself. She knew that just because Xiao Wei loved her husband and wanted to own his love.
Then she did.
But Wang Sheng didn’t believe his wife did that, he promised to everyone if his wife did kill people, he also had the responsibility to bear the punish with his dearly wife, he could kill himself after finding the evidence. Xiao Wei was so disappointed about that. Then Pei Rong died. Wang Sheng was so hopeless and couldn’t help crying. However, Xia Bing still believed Xiao Wei did all the things. She fought with Xiao Wei and show everyone Xiao Wei was the terrible goblin, but she wasn’t able to kill Xiao Wei. Wang Shen begged Xiao Wei to use his life to bring his wife back, and killed himself.
Xiao Wei was sad and asked him whether he had loved her, he answered sadly:"I love you, but I have already had my wife......"
At that moment, Xiao Wei understood how altruistic this kind of love was. She was so rueful and then sacrificed all her power that worked for over 900 years to bring all the died people back to life. Then she became a fox again, and would never ever became a person........
After that, the life in the town became peaceful again. And a white fox was walking in the desert alone........
(The impression from this movie in my mind shocked my heart. The death of these three people is altruistic, although Wang Sheng and Pei Rong were saved in the end. These noble sacrifices show us what is real love. And I still think Xiao Wei was pathetic,even some people think she was abominable. She just wanted to have love like a person. She was so great that she sacrificed herself in order to let Wang Sheng have his own happiness. )
