A Christmas with gifts, new clothes, and delicious meals is meaningless.
At the end of the year, Netflix came with this " Klaus: The Secret of Christmas ". Frankly speaking, it is not particularly brilliant. After all, the various source anecdotes of Christmas are not a new topic, but I have to admit that , After watching the movie, I still feel extremely warm, there seems to be a power that arises from the bottom of my heart, and at the same time I look forward to what gifts I can receive next Christmas.
The movie tells the story of the Royal Mail son who is ignorant and ignorant, and he doesn't care about the postal work at all. Yes, he is the scumbag in everyone's mouth.
The old father, who hoped for his son to become a dragon, had to be ruthless and ruthless, and sent him to a remote island. Only after completing the KPI of 6,000 letters a year could he return to the royal family to inherit the family business.
It was a sunny day at Royal Mail, the scenery on the road was peaceful and pleasant, and the destination was simply smoky.
There are two major families living on the small island of Smithersburg, The Krums family and The Ellingboes family. Yes, the two families do not communicate with each other. There is even a Bell symbolizing war in the Chuhe Han world. strike. As for why they don't communicate with each other, you know that many non-communications have evolved from the initial trivial matter to the historical reasons left behind. In short, it is just that you are not pleasing to the eye.
It's sharp enough to fight a big butt, and the history of the two families "not interacting with each other" is even more interesting, and it is excellent enough to be written into a textbook.
The conflict between the two families is not just about not interacting with each other, it is normalized to dig holes for each other and take pride in it. Not only that, the children cannot get the education they deserve, and the young and beautiful teachers who come to work have to sell. The fish raised money to be able to leave early. It is conceivable how people still have time and mood to write letters in this environment.
Facing the heavy task of 6,000 letters, the male protagonist Jesper began to visit constantly and witnessed the life of the people on the island. By chance, a painting of a child living in the high castle flew to Jesper. He wanted to use his cleverness to trick the children into recycling them by mail, but he was no match for the child's father and two vicious dogs, so he had to flee.
Seeing that he was unable to convince the people of the two major families to resume the habit of writing letters, Jesper accidentally discovered that there was a place on the island map that he had not yet reached, and the boatman Mogens Morgans also suggested to visit. The grandfather who scared him once was Klaus, and while he was fleeing, the previous child's painting fell into Klaus's hands through the force of the wind.
Just as Jesper was about to pack up and escape from the island, he met the tall and burly Klaus and asked which child the previous painting came from. Jesper led the way, and the two went together. It turned out that Klaus had prepared a gift for the child, a frog that could jump around. It felt like an enhanced version of the green frog toy that only jumped forward as a child. It is known that the child is very happy after receiving the gift, and his mood is even better.
It was this little frog that not only built a bridge of friendship between two children from different families, but also opened the door for Jesper's work KPI. On the one hand, the children realized that writing letters to Klaus could get gifts, and their interest in learning to write was high, and the school began to gradually return to its original state; on the other hand, Jesper finally saw the hope of completing his KPI, and came to Klaus again, officially. Cooperation, you donate toys to children, I can help you deliver.
That's right, Jesper saw the toys in Klaus' house, and Klaus saw the light behind Jesper.
The house made for birds can be said to be very good.
Just like that, more and more letters from the children, fewer and fewer toys for Klaus, the atmosphere of the island is getting better and better, and Jesper's metrics are getting better and better.
And most importantly, Jesper self-proclaimed the rule for receiving gifts as "only good kids get toys" and claimed that Klaus had a list of bad kids and he could see everything. It also pointed out the direction for this group of children living in family hatred.
At 46'53'', the BGM of Jesper turning around and lowering the brim of the hat is simply touching, asking for a name.
Children begin to stop the vandalism of adults.
Colorful slides appear in the gloomy High Castle and break down the barriers between families.
The child polishes the trumpet that his father cherished in the past, and the musical instrument is no longer the horn to fight each other.
Seeing that the relationship between the neighbors is getting more and more harmonious, and the school atmosphere is like a spring breeze, the two families can finally sit idly by.
Jesper and Klaus discuss the insights of life on the way of delivering gifts at night, and it is also here that Klaus expresses the central idea of the whole film "the most selfless dedication, the most inspiring".
And Jesper finds realistically that everyone wants something. When Klaus asked about his picture, Jesper was evasive, not saying what he was really thinking.
Just as the two were chatting, the ambush of the two major families came together, yes, it was just that. Then the carriage lost its wheels under the attack of falling rocks and giant trees, and under the action of dynamic potential energy, a beautiful landscape of the classic Santa Claus was drawn in the sky - the flying sleigh was pulled by the magical reindeer, and all this happened to be watched by a child In his eyes, it is conceivable that he could only recite in his heart: OMFG!
Although the sight of flying reindeer began to spread, Jesper's mind was still confused by the dwindling gifts. When he returned home at night, he saw the foreign girl who did not understand the language again, and in a flash of lightning (there was only one truth) thought of Christmas The idea, yes, is the magical gift that I woke up at Christmas and found on the bedside. For this reason, Jesper specially renovated the studio for Klaus. He was full of energy until he finally touched the deadliest memory in Klaus' heart and was kicked out. go.
At the same time, the moon is black and the wind is high, and the two major families also gathered again, temporarily letting go of their grievances, working hand in hand, sharing the enemy, trying to wipe out the common enemy.
A disheartened Jesper realizes that if he fails to complete the goal of 6000 letters, he will not be able to escape the boredom of the island, but he also begins to reflect on whether he is doing something wrong to Klaus. Seeing the foreign girl at the door of the house again, on the one hand, I was upset and didn't know what to do, and at the same time, I finally couldn't ignore her persistence, so I took the girl to the teacher's house with a try attitude to see if they could communicate effectively. .
It turned out that the gift the little girl was looking forward to was a boat. Looking at the shots of Jesper, the teacher and the girl in the same frame, it really felt like home. The warm fireplace was glowing with red fire, warm and happy.
The BGM at this time is " Invisible (from the Netflix Film Klaus) ", and the lyrics in the chorus also echo the above phrase "the most selfless dedication, the most inspiring".
Jesper put the girl's letter in the envelope, and after returning home, he began to try to complete the beloved gift for him, but he fell asleep as soon as he started. When he woke up again, Klaus was already helping out. The two completed a sleigh together, and took it to the girl's door in the dark. They witnessed the girl's unmistakable joy when she received the gift from a distance.
After returning, Klaus opened up his heart for the first time and talked about his past stories, his loving wife, his desire to have children and grandchildren, countless toys made in advance for this purpose, and his hurried death of his wife due to illness in the end, because his wife likes birds, That's why I made so many birdhouses myself. The appearance of Jesper undoubtedly saved Klaus, and because of this, Klaus regained his original intention of bringing more happiness to children, and decided to start making more gifts and expand his Christmas distribution range tomorrow. And Jesper is thinking about where he will be today next year. On the way back, Jesper was even more confused. When he passed the school, he realized that there were already so many children in the school, and the children were so happy. The teacher also spent the money he had raised to escape on education, not only In this way, the island is not what it used to be, the haze of the past has been dissipated, and the joy of Christmas is everywhere.
When Jesper and Klaus were short on staff, the girl brought her large family over to help, and the teacher joined in the preparations for Christmas. For a time, Klaus seemed to be full of children and grandchildren, extremely happy.
The good times didn't last long. The two families accidentally discovered the secret that Jesper needed to complete the KPI, and then deliberately used the family power to write many, many letters, and the news of the excellent performance attracted Jesper's father. Everyone finally learned that there were 6,000 letters left to return to their royal family to enjoy silk sheets, and for the first time, Klaus also understood what Jesper was planning.
It is conceivable that Jesper did not leave in the end, and the two families would not stop there.
When all the gifts fell off the cliff at the end, I even naively wondered if there would be a flock of birds flying up from behind, with gifts in their mouths. Well, it seems that I am still too ideal. It turned out that the gift was dropped, and there was no danger; it turned out that Sai Weng lost his horse and wanted to continue the hostility between the two families, but he did not expect a love story of tying the knot.
And, this is really a deep love.
As time goes on, Jesper's life is getting better and better, getting married and having children, quiet and peaceful, and occasionally visiting Klaus, who is getting older.
Finally one day, Klaus disappeared, but every Christmas, everyone still thinks of you.
【Merry Christmas】
Why is the reindeer responsible for giving gifts instead of horses, because horses are still not strong enough;
Why is it a sleigh instead of a carriage? That's right, because the carriage was broken, and the back was simply transformed into a sleigh.
A Christmas that only receives gifts, buys new clothes, and has a delicious meal is meaningless. It is just another business promotion day. However, if children can feel that "good children can get toys" during the festival, "A true act of gooodwill always sparks another" That's another story, never ignore the power of children, because the power of children is the power to change the world in the future.
We hope that children will have hope and innocence in their hearts, and will always have the reverie of Santa Claus, which is the most primitive seed and the most powerful force planted for him to "be a good person" in the future.
