Warmth wrapped in black petals

At first, watching the film's name and black-and-white images gave people a weird feeling. Tim Burton's films are always good at expressing the most sincere feelings under the absurd and dark appearance, which can only be known by watching them carefully.
I have seen the same type of animation before. The characters in "Zombie Bride" have the same big round eyes, zombie-like faces, and the appearance of the characters is not beautiful but has a special flavor, but after watching it, I always feel that something is missing, it seems that it is missing Something that can impress me, until I watched this movie today, I found out that what I was missing was the simplest kind of sincere feelings like relatives.
I have always felt that the relationship between humans and animals is the most sincere and pure, and the most touching. The boy Victor’s affection for Sparky is like a relative. When he hangs Sparky into the sky and is struck by lightning. When he found that it didn't work, he lay tears on the burnt sheet that had been charged. He said "I'm sorry, boy". This is not only the sadness for failing to save him, but also for his corpse. He blamed himself for being struck by lightning, but this was not a tragedy. Spaaki was resurrected and had a happy time with the boy. It seemed that everything went back to the past, and the smile returned to Victor's face.
When I saw the town being messed up by the resurrected monsters, I couldn't help wondering, is this a little humor of the director? Spaki, who was resurrected by Victor because of love, is still kind and lively, while the other animals resurrected for the children who won the science trophy are all ugly monsters. In the same way, with different moods, there will be such different results. Humorous but thought-provoking.
In the end Victor thought that Sparky would not come back, I still shed tears easily. Maybe this kind of plot is a huge impact point for people who like animals, especially dogs. The simplest, the purest, but the The most touching.
No matter what technique or painting style the film uses, what can never be concealed is the emotional theme it expresses, just like a flower that is not gorgeous, and finally blooms in the center, always the same. Warmth.

    The plot is too simple, but the second half is still very powerful. Some of the first half of the feeling is actually a bit of a look around the house. Disney is a crazy noise-canceling killer.
