It turns out that Mulan was directed by her, ha, then I'll mark the whale rider. I gave this film four stars, because I learned that she directed Hua Mulan, so I added one to wish her a better career after 18 years. I haven't watched Mulan yet. Some parts of Whale Rider are relatively loose or boring, but the whole main axis, the opposition and reconciliation between grandfather and grandson, minority elements, the philosophy of ancient legends, the warm little love, and the natural ecology of...

"Whale Rider" represents not only the national leader recognized by the Maori, but also the totem of "wisdom" in Maori culture. Is the ancient culture inherited or abandoned?

It is in everyone's heart and sees everything that is happening around them from the perspective of freedom, equality and...

The flaw is that in the narrative aspect, it relies a little on small actors to sell cuteness, and in terms of conflict, it relies a little on selling alien cultures. But the appearance of the whale was like a miracle on the ground in the dullness of the previous hour, and the huge mammal sailing into the blue ocean was like a reconciliation between tradition and reality. Maori, the wave of feminism should also keep up~7...

As quiet as the sea, sad and strong
I took the National Day holiday and read some novels, one of which was "Whale Rider". The film adapted from this novel is one of my favorites.
This is a story about how a Maori girl overcomes the obstacles of tradition and reality. The plot is finally recognized without repeating. There are... -

[first lines]
Paikea: In the old days, the land felt a great emptiness. It was waiting. Waiting to be filled up. Waiting for someone to love it. Waiting for a leader.
[child birth scene]
Paikea: And he came on the back of a whale. A man to lead a new people. Our ancestor, Paikea. But now we were waiting for the firstborn of the new generation, for the descendant of the whale rider. For the boy who would be chief.
Paikea: There was no gladness when I was born. My twin brother died, and took our mother with him.
