Loneliness is relative

It seems that I just fell in love with this film when I saw it at the beginning.
When Norman walked through the long unmanned street, greeted the air in a seemingly lonely and weird manner, and there were some neighbours who looked down on him from time to time, so he walked away awkwardly and pitifully. Suddenly the picture changed. As the background music expanded and the style of the picture rose, Shana emerged one after another kind-hearted and distinctive souls, joking and saying hello to each other. At this point, I was suddenly moved inexplicably. It turns out that loneliness is On the contrary, we dismiss those who don't understand, because there are always reasons for us to stick to it honestly.

    Hahaha. Kid's usual horror movie trick of saving the world or destroying the world. But this kind of banter and tribute, the best way to play is not to mess with children. If you have time, write a frame-by-frame analysis post.

    It was hypnotizing at the end.

ParaNorman quotes

  • Aggie: Aggie... My name was Aggie... I - I remember... My mommy brought me here once. We sat under the tree and she told me stories. They all had happy endings. Then those horrible men came and took me away and I never saw her again!

    Norman Babcock: Sometimes when people get scared, they say and do terrible things. I think you got so scared that you forgot who you are. But I don't think you're a witch. Not really.

    Aggie: You don't?

    Norman Babcock: I think you're just a little kid with a really special gift who only ever wanted people to understand her. So we're not all that different at all.

    Aggie: But what about the people who hurt you? Don't you ever want to make them suffer?

    Norman Babcock: Well, yeah, but what good would that do? You think just because there's bad people that there's no good ones either? I thought the same thing for a while. But there's always someone out there for you. Somewhere.

    Aggie: I just want my mommy.

    Norman Babcock: I'm sorry, Aggie. She's gone.

    Aggie: That story you were telling. How does it end?

    Norman Babcock: I think that's up to you.

    Aggie: Is this where they buried me?

    Norman Babcock: It's a pretty good place to sleep. Then you can be with your mom again.

  • Neil: So what do we do now?

    Norman Babcock: Uhh... I... I - I really don't know.

    Courtney: Yes you do, Norman. You've gotta get to that witch's grave.

    Norman Babcock: But...

    Courtney: But nothing, you listen to me, buster. We didn't turn away when Daleridge High was slaughtering our volleyball team, did we?

    Norman Babcock: Yeah, we did.

    Courtney: No, we didn't. I have cheered the un-cheerable, Norman. And I'm not letting you give up now.
