Fairy tales let people know kindness
Warmth, healing, kindness, fairy tale, these words are my deepest feelings after watching the two films of "Paddington Bear" 1.2. The development of a fairy tale-like story, the protagonist and most of the people in the story are warm, Kind, bad people will definitely get retribution at the end of the story, and good people will definitely get their own happiness, so as to achieve the purpose of warming children and healing adults.
The whole story does not set Paddington Bear as a real bear, but vividly shows the audience the seemingly indifferent but tender feelings of the entire British country through such an out of place image. The whole movie makes people feel moved after seeing the unique British humor and belly laughing. Although it is only a little warm and touched, it is precisely this point that makes people unforgettable.
This is the beauty of British comedy.
There are also a group of people who cannot be ignored throughout the film, running through one or two films, as long as there is music, they appear, and they appear wherever they are needed.
"Paddington Bear 1"
Paddington, who smuggled from Peru to London to find a home, has always kept in mind Aunt Lucy's teaching - "As long as you treat others well, others will treat you well", so he took off his hat and greeted everyone he saw. I hope I can integrate into this city, I hope I can be accepted by this city, I hope I can find a "home" here and become a part of this city. But the reality he faced was different from what Aunt Lucy said. No one paid any attention to his greetings, and everyone hurried past without even looking at him.
I finally met the kind-hearted Brown family. I thought they had finally found their own "home" in London, but in fact they only stayed for one night. They gave him a human name, but couldn't give him a "home".
This is a fairy tale, so after going around the story, the Browns all accepted Paddington and let him live in their house and become their family forever. The kind Paddington still ushered in a fairy tale-like ending in this often rainy city-London. After facing the indifference that was exchanged for enthusiasm and kindness, I finally found a warm "home", and the story ended in happiness after all.
"Paddington 2"
There is no way to move the story forward without a bad guy, so even in a good fairy tale world there is bound to be a bad guy who will push the whole story forward.
The London pop-up book that Paddington planned to give to Aunt Lucy as a birthday present was stolen, but Paddington was arrested by the police who did not investigate the case in detail, and was sentenced to prison by the judge who announced the private revenge. I don't know if it was Paddington's protagonist's halo or his kindness that made him meet a group of friends in the cell.
The ending was as expected, the real murderer was found out under the search of the Brown family, and his life was saved with the help of friends in the cell. The story still ends with a warm and happy ending. However, rather than giving the pop-up book to Aunt Lucy as a gift, the author uses a better ending. The Browns brought Aunt Lucy to London so that she could see with her own eyes. Check out the city she's longed for so she and Paddington can be reunited.
This is indeed a movie that has no age limit, and it will not be unacceptable to older people because of the combination of animation and live action. When I watched this movie at home by myself, my mother was also attracted to watch it together. The handling of the laughs in the movie did not make people feel that it was deliberate, everything happened naturally.
Some people say that this is like a large-scale London propaganda film. Indeed, the whole story is based on the city of London, especially in the second part. The development of the whole story also revolves around the theft of the London pop-up book. But so what, at least this big promotional film is not boring, at least I did laugh at the British humor in these two films, and I was indeed moved by the little warmth in the films. It's good that the promotional film is made like this.
Everyone was once a Paddington Bear, and like Paddington Bear, we would be afraid of being a burden to others and choose to leave alone; we would also like Paddington Bear, eager to be accepted, and hide our insecurities enthusiasm to face. We can also find our own home like Paddington Bear and find a "family" that we can rely on. As long as we are kind, we believe that there is still warmth in this world, and that there is such a fairy tale-like existence.
However, life is not a fairy tale after all. Maybe after you left independently, you really left that part of your life; maybe you faced the uneasy switch with all your enthusiasm, and it was the uneasy speculation of others; maybe you were kind, and you believed that the world still has Warmth, take this belief to find a home, and what you get is the cruel reality that warmth does not belong to you.
It's just that there are too many unspeakable things in the adult world. There is no right or wrong, no difference between good and evil. It's just that it's not easy.
The world doesn't seem that good, but it's not that bad either.
Will the world be better?
No, the world will not be better.
Of course, the world couldn't get any worse.
This world has been this way since it became this world.
Everyone has their own difficulties. Mr. Brown is not bad. It’s not that he has no love. It’s just that as the head of the family, he must put the safety of his family first. Facing an unknown bear, he has to be on guard. .
Everyone used to be a Paddington bear, and we are always trying to integrate into the world of others, and when others want to integrate into our world, we also use distanced warmth or indifference to maintain the temporary tranquility of our own world, In fact, unknowingly, we have injected our feelings into it, and when we lose it, we realize that you have integrated others into your world.
Everyone was once a Paddington Bear, and may we, like Paddington Bear, usher in a perfect ending after experiencing the test given to us by this world that is neither good nor bad.
