Before buckled our seat belts for the 5.50 p.m., we were having dilemma over Jack and the Giant slayer, and a couple of romance movies which I kept claiming cheesy (*woops :P)
The very thing that attracts me to Flight is its trailer. Remembered a scene whereby the lawyer told the pilot (*my apologies i am bad at names :P) that no one is able to repeat what he has done (*watch to check out what miracle he pulled in sky high ;)
More importantly, the genius pilot who saved lives is a hard-core substance abuser (*literally, whatever that gives a boast to the dopamine center, he lives on them- Again grab it in the cinema for the detailed WHAT HE IS ADDICTED ON^^)
and so yeah. feelings flying up high and low while the story unfolds. (*i think i used all Ekman's 8 basic emotions throughout the movie :D )
it struck me hard on the population of substance abusers.
while having internship in the hospital, kinda secretly played this in my mind that certain groups are my no-no group and i cast distrusting votes to my competence on these no-no groups: Children (*god save me), Love affairs (*will try to drop my weapons and left-wing feminist's stance but no promise :D), and the substance abusers (*i don't think i know you)
another touching and personalize movie Flight is,and i managed to understand and see the importance of working with this population.
loads of ethical issues are gonna arose if working with this population, and loads of foreseeable challenges simply because you are trying to ask someone to see the thing that makes them feel good is in essence, bad, in fact, detrimental and destructive. and oh yeah, lets use the analogy of dating and love. read one research before on a magazine in empire mall's cake shop while waiting for the cake ;)
it says that love afflicts the same pleasure area that addictives afflict. i presume, dopamine center since it is the pleasure center.
*if weaning of love or getting over a break up is difficult and painful (*the list goes on), imagine detox :P
but really, thanks to Flight^^
I am able to appreciate the challenges and ABCs of the substance abusers, as well as the challenges of professionals working with such population.
More importantly, as cited from HK drama On Call 36 Hours, Dr. Cheong-Yat-Kin, patient and their family members both are subjected to the physician's care, 全民医治. Flight nicely illustrates the far-reaching impacts of substance abuse to all levels of individuals involved.
whatever came across in life, they often prove to be useful in your near/ distant future :)
Wish that you are inspired as much as i am inspired, and aspired from Flight^^
