      Fairy tales are not all lies

      When I was a child, I teased my younger brother that there was an elf in my closet. The vivid description matched my exaggerated acting skills. My younger brother believed this for many years. I still remember the questioning, curious look in his eyes, the exact same look on Walter's face when he was listening to the story. Every child has weaved more than one fairy tale dream in their heart. As they grow up, the dreams are broken by reality one by one. This is the source of the pain brought by...

      Who taught whom in the end?

      A film about growing up, a plot that hovers between reality and fiction, 2 old urchins with eccentric characters, 5 dogs, a pig, and a second-hand lion. This combination is very joyful, and also because the boy With the arrival of the child, this combination that waits for death every day has ushered in life, and crops have grown on the originally barren land. At the same time, the boy received an unprecedented fatherly love from the two old men, who taught him how to grow up as a man and told...

      Warriors, no explanation needed

      How can they really let go of the past after years of adventure? They are still warriors. But they are also lonely, always looking for excitement, taking risks, not wanting to be old, and unwilling to truly "receive".

      The appearance of Victor has added a lot of fun to them. He is such a clever little man :)

      American dramas have been breaking our three views, look, Victor is such a good child, and his mother is the master of money. It's not as the saying goes, if there is a...

      It doesn't matter if some things are true or not, people believe them because they are worth believing.


      It doesn't matter if some things are true or not, people believe them because they are worth believing.
      The little boy's shyness and kindness are perfectly interpreted, let my uncle not leave, because there are still many people who need him and love him. This retention delayed my uncle's life by at least 10 years!
      The chief's son finally proves that the story is true, and the boy is very satisfied! Make the audience happy!
      The way the lion died was exactly the same as that...

      Some things are not true or false, as long as they are worth believing

      Secondhand Lions refers not only to the aging lion in the movie, but also to the two old people (secondhand means second-hand acquisition, which symbolizes the boy's understanding of the two heroic brothers who were once "African lions". others' narrative). But whether it is an animal or a human, even if it is "second-hand", even if it is old, the heroism of the past will still be revealed in the words and deeds of the present. So the little boy who used to "doubt everything" not only believed...

      This is a good movie with a glittering ox fork. It is very warm and beautiful. Such a summer will definitely leave a heavy mark on a child's...

      Wow, it's amazing, it's actually a lion, and it's so docile. Although the narrative is a little loose, the lion is more supporting role than the supporting role, but it is obvious that the old hero is full of courage and arrogance through the lion. With such uncles, can you not be proud. In addition to the legend, the warmth of the third father is enough to reminisce for a long time, a must-see movie for...
