1, advantages: very real, very moving. Without exaggerating the audience's emotions too much, and without setting the characters' personalities in particular, it tells a very legendary story and conveys a strong blood and affection. The first half of the scene in India is in stark contrast and difference from the second half of the scene in Australia.

2. Disadvantages: The character building is too simple. The protagonist Saro, his adoptive parents, his younger brother, and Saro's girlfriend are all shallow and not profound. The first half of being lost in India, the wandering plot is full and compact, and the second part, because the university met Indian classmates, and suddenly remembered that the setting of looking for biological parents is too arbitrary and irrational.

    Three and a half. The first half is better than the second, not only because the full-screen Google Maps ads in the second half are dramatic (about this plot, how about the real events will not be evaluated for the time being), but the performance of the young actors in the first half can also give people a strong impression The sense of substitution, by analogy, can basically be seen as "Dear" from a different perspective, that is, how children who have lost their parents survive and find many tears. The selection of the actors is really good, and both Nicole and Rooney have extra points.

    When can they stop this pompous White-men/women-save-the-world-and-make-it-a-better-place nonsense!?! Rooney Mara characters and title cards are optional for the plot development of…

Lion quotes

  • Saroo Brierley: I'm sorry you couldn't have your own kids.

    Sue Brierley: What are you saying?

    Saroo Brierley: We... we... weren't blank pages, were we? Like your own would have been. You weren't just adopting us but our past as well. I feel like we're killing you.

    Sue Brierley: I could have had kids.

    Saroo Brierley: What?

    Sue Brierley: We chose not to have kids. We wanted the two of you. That's what we wanted. We wanted the two of you in our lives.That's what we chose.

    Sue Brierley: That's one of the reasons I fell in love with your dad.

    [pause]

    Sue Brierley: Because we both felt as if... the world has enough people in it. Have a child, couldn't guarantee it will make anything better. But to take a child that's suffering like you boys were. Give you a chance in the world. That's something.

  • Saroo Brierley: Do you have any idea what it's like knowing my real brother and mother spent every day of their lives looking for me? Huh? How every day my real brother screams my name? Can you imagine the pain they must be in not knowing where I am?
