the paper chase
剧中的paper是在哈佛法学院的学生们的grades,这些grades决定着他们的未来，他们的薪水.剧中的paper也是那一纸离婚书。这样的场景如此熟悉。
我们的生活也由paper主导着。paper就是我们的证明。但是就像最后飞向大海的那一纸飞机，我也期待着我能够逃脱。
男主因为帮教授做研究而错过了和教授女儿的Cape之行, 超市里两人争执。教授女儿的一长段话点明主旨。我把对话摘录如下：
Hart: “ We could go to the Cape next weekend.”
Susan: "We aren't going anywhere."
Hart: "I, uh, wish you wouldn't treat me like this. I haven't had a decent meal in four days. I haven't had any sleep. Look, he tested me, I failed. I worked so hard on that goddamn paper. Well, he may flunk me! "
高校竞争激烈，高强度学习，适应并坚持。年青人最该干的事。
纸证。不仅要看到一张纸证决定未来与薪资，更要看到纸证背后的努力付出与成长。
逼自己一把的坚持与努力，不断磨砺思维方式与职业技能‘。
影片写实诚恳，一般青春校园片流于瞎胡闹的反教育倾向，这个要有良心的多。
储备知识，蓄养希望。理想生活，纸证带我飞向。
Prof. Kingsfield的教学风格高山仰止，苏格拉底式的追问质询令人血脉贲张。窘境逼迫提升、困难中见成长是永恒真理。
“学法律是你们自己的事，我负责教会你们法律思维。”
“入学时你们一脑袋浆糊，离开时你们会像律师一样思考。”
我虽一辈子可能也无法获得进入HLS的机会，但这部电影带给我很多现实的鼓励与鞭策，是我将努力成为优秀律师的一大动力。我会永远记得、常常温习。
PAPER CHASE这个名字无疑起的很好。我们从小到大都在追求的，只是这一张薄薄的被我们平白无故地赋予太多的纸片。就好像在影片最后那个HART成绩单做成的纸飞机，他可以成为BIG FIRM的敲门砖，但终究只是一张纸而已。
影片开始时，HART是一个书生意气风发的法律新鲜人（L one).卯足劲去攻克合同法（CONTRACT LAW）的课程，不惜一切去揣摩教授的思想精髓。在KINGSFEILD的书房里YY他和各级名流的照片，贼溜进图书馆的RED SET ROOM查阅教授50年前在哈佛法学院做学生时的笔迹，一面感叹图书馆是“智慧的心脏”（heart of the intelligence). 直到被红颜SUSAN一句" why are you so soft, so easy to be manipulated" (你为何如此软弱，如此容易让他操纵）一语激醒。而后在LECURE HALL被教授公然羞辱时，脱口而出一句SOB，震惊四座。
想起一句话：I won't let education block my way to pursuit the true knowledge.
教育？真知？不要迷失自己。
很喟叹HART的同学KEVIN，开始年轻气盛，越看越让人心寒，落得自杀未遂。退一步海阔天空，看穿，无他，仅纸一张。
The paper chase, we Chinese translated it as寒窗恋，or 力争上游、平步青云、纸追，an old movie shot in 1973, scored 8.3 in Douban movie. Considering the harsh words people use in movie commenting and they prefer negative attitudes to the movie they take, it’s a relative high mark, which means a good movie. However, what disappointed is, it’s not wonderful movie, what we saw the students done in the movie is familiar to what we know, or what we’ve heard about, nothing special.
Different to our native classroom, the classroom is hemicycle, a conference center, the relationship between the professor on platform and students in the classroom are equal, teaching method here is Socratic approach, there even are insulting language between them, what we can’t imagine in we Chinese classroom.
