When I first saw the name of this movie, my first thought was that it was a movie about love and women. But after seeing the movie, I realized that it basically has nothing to do with women and love, but is more about the story between a boy and a blind colonel.
After watching the movie, the first thing that struck me was the charisma of the boy, Charlie. It is because he is kind and upright also very much with his own principles. In the beginning, Charlie and his companion Willis were threatened by the principal because they witnessed their roommate's prank on the principal, who told them to tell him who was behind the prank and to send him to Harvard, or else Charlie would be expelled.
The principal's offer to Charlie is a huge temptation for the poor family. But in the face of the betrayal of his roommate and the tempting offer, Charlie did not hesitate to follow his heart and refused the principal's offer.
Also because of his family's poverty, Charlie has to work part-time to earn his own tuition and living expenses while studying. That's how he meets Frank, a lieutenant colonel who needs to be taken care of because of his blindness. While taking care of Frank, Charlie saw Frank trying to commit suicide many times because he had lost hope in life. Although Charlie was worried about his school, he was still able to patiently counsel and warm up to Frank, who was grumpy and always wanted to give up on life.
Charlie accompanied Frank on a trip to New York, accompanied him to his big brother's house for dinner, and also took Frank to drive his beloved Ferrari on the streets, in order to let Frank regain hope in life. With Charlie's company and persuasion, Frank gave up the idea of ending his life. As a result, the relationship between Charlie and Frank has evolved from one of caregiver and employer to one of trusted family.
Frank accompanied Charlie to a meeting at the school where it was decided that Frank and Willis should be punished. When confronted with Willis' identification of his roommate, Charlie still did not betray his roommate. When the principal announced the decision to expel Charlie, Lt. Col. Frank blatantly accused the principal, and after expressing his inner thoughts, it finally made Charlie exempt from being punished.
There are many temptations and attractions that we encounter throughout our lives as we grow up, and these temptations can cause us to lose ourselves at many times. But always remember to hold on to your inner line whenever you can, and to be true to your conscience before you do anything and make any decision. No one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes, but at least make sure that you don't hurt others for your own benefit. Please be kind when you are born! This is the biggest feeling that this movie and Charlie brought to the guy.
