In addition, in a dimly lit room, Ma Haowen was reading materials under the dim light. The sleepy son asked his father, "I can't sleep. Can I read?" Dad's answer is: "Do your own thing." The son got up and began to study. In the next class, my son began to listen attentively. He found that after listening carefully, those strange things became simple.
Practice is better than precept. What a simple truth. And we "educators" (parents and teachers) often ignore it, or "know" but "can't do it".
Deng Chao plays an engineer "Ma Haowen". In the whole movie, there is no doubt that Ma Haowen loves his son Ma Fei. He loves his son very much. Respect your son's wishes, protect his dreams, encourage his son to think and give him unlimited possibilities.
In fact, many dads can't do this. It can be said that it is difficult to find one father in 100, and most of them are people who impose their ideas on their children, set many rules for their children, or let them go. "Widowed parenting" is also a social problem at present, but how many fathers can this film arouse ripples in their hearts? I'm afraid the good will be better, and the bad will only get worse.
Ma Haowen, played by Deng Chao in Looking Up, seems to have no traces of performance, although the age span of this role is very large, spanning several decades, from a young engineer in his prime to a frustrated person who was suddenly accidentally imprisoned, to a middle-aged man who was proud and had to bow to reality, and even an old man with white hair and hunchback.
How much effort did Deng Chao put into this role? After watching the movie, he must have the most intuitive feeling. With his free acting skills, Deng Chao vividly presents a different stage of China's father's life, which is very similar to the image of every aging father who grew up with us.
