      The Young And Prodigious T.S. Spivet--Facing Growth Pain

      I didn't know Jean-Pierre Genet before, and I didn't know the style of Amelie. This film really makes people recall their colorful and beautiful childhoods and at the same time feel the pain of growing up and how to think back to them. Step by step, you have come to today with a smile, and what kind of mentality and actions will you take in the future to face the tragicomedy that the world has given you?

      Still a child after all

      The film conveys so many emotions, each of which is moving. Spivey is a gifted child. He is very brave. He dares to go to the place he wants to go by himself. This makes me both envious and ashamed now that I am an adult and dare not go out alone, but the child is a child after all, and he still cares about the past. what happened and what his parents thought of him. No matter what a child's aptitude is, fathers and daughters should use love to care for and protect their pure hearts and...

      love is the theme

      Families with different personalities live together on a vast plain. There are twin brothers whose elder brother has no brains but no body, and younger brothers who have no brains and have grown bodies, sisters who despise their family, mothers who study bugs, fathers who are full of cowboy spirit... Everyone lives their own lives independently. life, but the family also loves each other! Saw the criticism that the film didn't have the intensity to attack the dark side of society. What I'm...

      Genius Young Scientist Huaer Teen Dream Journey

      The protagonist I want to talk about today is: TS SPIVET, this is a young boy like a flower, but a genius young scientist like a fake. The title of the film is: The young and prodigious TS SPIVET.
            This film brought a great shock. A 10-year-old boy actually designed a "perpetual motion machine" and made a real-life model. OMG!
            Movie itself is derived from life, but higher than life. So I think there is no need to worry about whether the "perpetual motion machine" can be...

      Geniuses also need redemption

      Family is about understanding and understanding each other, even if your family is a gifted teenager.

      What the stranger saw was just a 10-year-old boy with a thin body and a normal figure. If such a small child had an accident with his brother, would he be blamed by others?

      But Spivey is a genius, who will make his family forget his age, and think that he, who has a higher IQ, should be responsible for his brother's death.

      In this family, my father wants to be a cowboy, my...

      The childhood of a genius is bound to be neglected, not to mention the huge guilt of accidentally hurting a brother. There are tears in the laughter, but the cast is not pretentious. The script and lines are very good. I personally think it is the best movie released recently....

    Evaluation action

    With the help of TS Spavii's bizarre imagination, the film creates a strange fairy tale world. Rene's movie world is always not very real, just like those exaggerated colors and strong contrasts that make the movie more like a dream world, but it has also become its unique visual label. So for those who like fantasy style, this film can still find many familiar elements. (Modern Times Review) 
    The film is a realistic-themed film full...
