Close your eyes, hold my hand, and tell me, what did you see? This is my favorite game when I was a child. It is often when I am doing exercises between classes. I listen to the principal's lectures on the radio speakers with my hands behind my back. I just close my eyes and imagine that there is a large forest around with vines swaying. The thin running water and the monkey squirrels jumping around; because he raised his head and faced the sun, when he opened his eyes, everything around was covered with a faint blue light, and everything seemed to become transparent in an instant. stand up.

This is a film about growth, youth, imagination, sweetness and pain. It can evoke your beautiful past and make people sigh sour. It is produced by Disney, but the audience is the parents who watch it alone. It can be said that this is definitely not just a movie for children; after the show, the children left the table first, but the adults sat under the stage for a long time, reluctant to leave.

A transfer student, a passionate, lively and brave girl; an introverted and melancholy boy who can't even afford a pair of sneakers at home, living in a small attic surrounded by four sisters at home; pure and transparent eyes, only one look is enough can understand. In reality, he is a lonely child in puberty, bullied by his eldest sister at school and neglected by his parents at home; her appearance is like a beam of sunshine in a round mirror, passing through the wall without hesitation. Shot into his life; though a child, he learned from her courage, steadfastness, tolerance and understanding.

They live near a mysterious virgin forest, with always straight country roads and large clean blue sky and white clouds, and the girl's stripes are reminiscent of Pippi Longstocking. The laughter and the free movement of waving the brush while painting the wall in the girl's house brought a different feeling to the boy who lived in a crowded, cramped and worried for a living. In the fluttering room, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. Everything is so beautiful, swinging an old rope through the stream, they discover a fantasy world just for the two of them. There are intertwined shades of greenery going up to the sky, winding rivers and waterfalls, mountains and forests as beautiful as fairyland, tall tree people with torch-like eyes, giant birds falling from the sky, groups of crawling monsters, daggers holding daggers. Elephant Bird Soldier^.

Just when you thought all the sweetness of the youthful days went on like this, with beautiful paintbrushes painting colorful life, red tambourines singing cheerful songs in music class, crunchy apples and swings on a rainy day. . . But life is just life after all, and nothing magical has evolved because of the simple dreams of the two children. When grief comes suddenly, all memories are just memories, and all futures begin to dim; but passion, the belief that the world can be changed through fantasies, survives and makes life quite different later on.

I think of the Japanese movies "First Love Seventeen" and Taiwan's "Blue Gate"; growing up must pay a price, when you think life is just running down the runway, the rock that made you fall below your knees, May take you to another world; turn around, there is no reason to look back, you have grown up.

IMB rated the film a 7.5, and I don't think an 8.5 is an exaggeration. In the season of spring, I am fortunate to be able to watch a good movie to pay tribute to the winter that finally I am willing to leave.
