Prove your existence with love

"Ghost Mom". It sounded a bit weird and scary at first. It's actually just an animated movie.

The setting of the plot is full of suspense, and the latter part is more like my favorite decryption game.

When I watched it, I was conquered by the gorgeous and imaginative pictures, while secretly believing that some things can only be explained by animation. Even the best special effects can't have such expressive power.

Those luminous flowers combined into the garden of the little girl's head; the group of clever jerboas, the funny and thrilling acrobatic performance... I almost immersed me in this dreamy world. Somebody sewed button eyes to stay here, I think.

That ghost mother created everything to satisfy her little daughter, just to make herself love.

Maybe only to love, will prove their existence.

She said: No matter how proud people are, they will be hurt by love.

What a profound and easily overlooked truth. It turns out that love is such a powerful weapon. Invincible. No one is invincible.

But she forgot. imposed love. Selfish love. No matter how delicate and intimate it is, it will make people want to escape.

  • Coraline Jones: [on the "Other" Mother] Why does she want me?

    Cat: She wants something to love, I think. Something that isn't her. Or, maybe she'd just love something to eat.

    Coraline Jones: Eat? That's ridiculous, mothers don't eat... daughters.

    Cat: I don't know. How do you taste?

    [chuckles]
