Big World

I can't tell whether he's acting or they casted a disabled person his acting was so good and I kept crying every scene that character faced every challenge given by the society from other to the family members director made me realise how blessed I'm for just born perfect thanks to the director, the main character and the rest of crew members.i can see myself how some of the normal people can't tolerate the disabled person for their disability and this movie really delevired it very well and they are also humans and it can affect just as the normal people thanks to the social media for recommended this will help the people who really needed this.

Yang Lina, who was born in 1972 in Jilin, China, kicked off her documentary career in 1996. Her notable works include Leap of Faith, which competed for the Golden Goblet Award at the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival, and Spring Tide, which was also in the running for the Golden Goblet at the 22nd Shanghai International Film Festival and won Best Director at the Changchun Film Festival.

In her impressive feature film Big World, filmmaker Yang Lina tells the story of a determined young man with a disability and the crucial events happening in his life during one summer. Chunhu, who has cerebral palsy, assists with his grandmother's stage play while also getting ready for a college exam. His grandmother is eager to help him connect with the world, but his mother is constantly worried about him.

The casting is spot-on for this kind of film: Jackson Yee, known for his role in Better Days, takes on the role of Chunhu, Diana Lin from The Farewell plays the grandmother, and Jiang Qinqin from Dwelling by the West Lake portrays the mother. While some may criticize Jackson Yee for playing a character with cerebral palsy, he really nailed it! The film is packed with emotion and has a few surprising twists, though I did feel it could have been about 30 minutes shorter. I bet you will cry... rare are those who didn't.

The fantastic music by Kobayashi Takeshi really enhances the overall experience, and they even managed to weave in a brief love story! I liked it - a lot!

Must be awful to feel and know that you're a burden, that your own parents wish they didn't have you. To be trapped by both your body and the people you have to depend on.

Clearly an awareness campaign type of movie and I resisted it for a while, but it got to me. It got to me big time with a few scenes that were well done. Or maybe just effective, which amounts to very much the same thing.

Jackson Yee does amazing work, there's no trace of the leading man here, he is completely lost in this role and it must be hard work and humbling getting to that level of disability.

I loved some scenes, some I found cliche or manipulative. But then again it's a melodrama so that's the whole point, to make us empathize. I really didn't see the point of the girl and I knew no good would come of it, unless the movie went into some very unrealistic territory. But I guess there's a girl like that in every boy's life. I thought the mom got off too easily and she absolutely had no excuse, not even her own absent mother. The speech at the mayor's office or wherever it was felt a little unnatural and rehearsed, not something he would say on the spot.

I liked the grandma. She's the best grandma anybody could wish for.

After viewing so many failed Hollywood blockbusters with no emotions, this is movie let me feel the strongest wave of emotions for years!

The actor's performance is world-class, no stunts, no visual effects, the actor spent more than half a year to study the physical movement of a cerebral paralysis patient, even live with some of them for months, then train himself so he can train himself to act like one of them.

There're few long shots focusing the actor in the film, the actor has performed flawlessly in those long shots, he's not acting the role Liu Chunhe, he has became Liu Chunhe in that 130 mins!

After the movie is released, there're many cerebral paralysis patient and their family went on Chinese TikTok, praise the movie accurately capture and presented the pain, challenge and struggle of their daily life, there were no over representation of pain, no over dramatic events, proved by emergency doctors, the actor has precisely presented the challenge of a cerebral paralysis patient.

What's more, after the movie was released, the movie launched a social campaign named "Moss flowers", promoting equal treatment and employment for people with disabilities, what more could you ask from a movie!

Jackson Yee, salute to you. His marvelous performance has made the movie more engaging. All other characters have played their part as they should have. The storyline is well-written. Direction and cinematography are totally on point. I love that they did not sugercoated anything, which made the movie deserving of an Oscar. The movie represents the actual reality of a clinically chalanged person. Although I think that the background score could have been more engaging. I think their are a lot of moments that any human being will feel related to. This movie represents that one should never lose hope or care about the negativity of society.
