A letter leading to friendship, leading to one's own way

My dear:
There is nothing like clay for this healing story.
The clay is rough, clumsy, and full of innocence, just like Mary and Marx. One is an 8-year-old girl from Melbourne, and the other is a 44-year-old Jew from New York. What they have in common are: 1. Love to eat chocolate.
2. Watch the noblet animation to collect the noble dolls.
3. All long for a true friend, not an invisible man, not a pet, not a doll.
Mary has an ugly birthmark on her forehead, and Max is trying to lose weight.
Mary was lonely, her mother was alcoholic and her father was rarely home. Marx has autism.
Mary was mocked by her classmates, and Max couldn't recognize facial expressions.
…………………………………………
Two insignificant little people, two humble as dust nobody.
But this movie is my tear gas, they have my shadow on them.
My clumsy inferiority complex is born and strengthened. Even if they are wrapped, the shell is not strong. Each of your bullets pushes the casing to the brink of shattering. And now I'm getting more and more out of control, but I want to change and optimize. Always failing is always not good enough. The cold words made me extremely anxious and powerless.
Love Yourself First. Max to Mary.
Maybe the most I should change is to love myself more. Every bullet hits me, but in the end I'll be invulnerable like I'm wearing a gold bell hood, you know, I can.

PS. Color
The clip about Mary is in color, but always covered in grayscale. Marx's is pure black and white, except for the picture of his tongue, the little red flower on the cap, and the picture of Mary... From the beginning of the film we knew that this couldn't be a joyous film, such a gray scene, so depressing The environment, Mary and Marx who are so powerless to the environment and themselves. But it was so reassuring and so warm. Even if the ending involves death.
Never be kind.

PSS.
The official introduction of dubbing is "The dubbing lineup of this film is even stronger, with Toni Collette, Eric Bana and Philip Seymour Hoffman joining the two Australian native movie stars "Little Miss Sunshine" ."
I can't tell who is who, but the actors who voiced young Mary and Max and their success.
Mary's voice was innocent and innocent, the little girl who was wronged and inferior.
Max's voice basically did not rise and fall, clumsy and desperate. Despair in despair must not arise from rebellion, but to endure and compromise until the feeling of despair becomes as imperceptible as breathing.

People often confuse
me but I try not to let them worry me. (Max)
People always confuse me, but I try not to take them to heart.

New York is a very busy and noisy place, I would prefer to live somewhere much quieter like the moon. (Max)
New York is a very busy and noisy place, and I prefer to live in a quieter place, like on the moon.

I don't like crowds, bright lights, sudden noises and strong smells, New York has all these. (Max) I don't like crowds, bright lights, sudden noises and strong smells
.
These are available in New York.

He also laughed 'cos I had no buttons.
Ethel pecked them off and mum couldn't thread a needle 'cos she'd been testing the sherry. So she used pegs instead. (Mary)
He also laughed at me for not having buttons on my clothes. Iss pecked the button off, and Mom couldn't get the thread in because she tested too much sherry. So she took clips instead.

The reason I forgive you is because you're not perfect.
You are imperfect, and so am I. All humans are imperfect. (Max)
I forgive you because you are not perfect. You are imperfect, and so am I.
nobody is perfect.

I would have to accept myself, my warts and all.
We don't get to choose our warts. They're part of us and we have to live with them.

We cannot choose our own flaws. They are part of us, so we must accept them. Everyone

's lives are like a very long sidewalk.Some are well paved.
Others,like mine,have cracks,banana skins and cigarette butts.Your sidewalk is like mine but probably not as many cracks...(Max)
A long sidewalk, some neat and others, like me, cracked, banana peels and cigarette butts. Your sidewalks are like mine, but don't have as many cracks as mine...

You are my best friend, you are my only friend. (Max) You are my best friend, you are my only friend

Mary and Max quotes

  • Max Jerry Horovitz: Butts are bad because they wash out to sea, and fish smoke them and become nicotine-dependent. I am just joking, because of course it is impossible for a cigarette to remain lit underwater. Also, fish do not have pockets to keep cigarette lighters in.

  • Max Jerry Horovitz: [to Mary] Have you ever been a communist? Have you ever been attacked by a crow or similar large bird?
