A Film Review of Homeless to Harvard
Based on a true story that a girl who lead a poor and unfortunate life was admitted to the Harvard by means of her determination and hard working,”Homeless to Harvard” is a very inspiring, meaningful andtouching film played in 2003.The movie shoot by Peter Levin, and this is his most successful work in hisdirector career.
Personally, in this movie, the most impressive part is when the leading role Liz visited the Harvard, looking at those college students who looked happy and hopeful, she thought about her past life and the unknown future.At that time, she made up her mind to try her best to become the one here and become a real new person, and she knew that” I just need a chance.”We can even feel the desire of changing lit up her mind, and gave me endless strength in her eyes. After that, she never lost her aim under poverty and helpless, as brave as she could be, Liz is the strongest girl in Harvard.
In the film, the statement of Liz Murray promotes thedevelopment of plotof the film,her life before she went to the Harvard is shown in flashback. And this two methods made the film more Persuasive and vivid. When she reached her destination, no one can deny that she deserve it, she deserve the Harvard because of her unmovable faith.
第二篇:Homeless to Havord --风雨哈佛路影评
Survival in Difficulty
In this film, I see that Liz go through her difficult childhood and struggle of youth. I witness her growing, from no education to Harvard and happiness, what is miracle. Impressed me most is that whenever Liz always remember her mother played with her in child. Maybe her mom’s love, even death, deeply inspire and encourage her efforts.
Somebody don’t have a rich family or a good education, just like Liz, we should de sticked to move toward, overcome the hardness to strength ourselves. In our daily life, we would meet lots of difficulties, don’t give up ,we will find our “Harvard”. As Liz say,”I know that there is a world out there that is better, that's better developed. And I want to live in it”.
