The picture of the film is full of fairytale-like beautiful colors, and the picture performance of the film can be said to be a major feature. This is a movie about a paradise for children and adults. It is not like other movies shot in poor neighborhoods, with dirty buildings, overflowing sewage, and dilapidated houses. On the other hand, the poor area in this movie is a dreamlike paradise. The beauty is outrageous, the colors are so eye-catching, people's lives are as comfortable and comfortable as they are on vacation, and there is a kind and responsible administrator. The more colorful this paradise, the more it shows the psychedelic state of the people who live here, who are content with the status quo, lose themselves, and live and dream without knowing it. The color of this paradise is not only the color in the eyes of the children living here, but also the color in the eyes of the adults who live here.
Halley is a member of the boarding house in this paradise. In the "Magic Castle" area, in this paradise-like environment, she is a small individual, and she is a character abandoned and hated by the whole society. In the film, her former friend Ashley has a job as a restaurant waiter, Grandma of Janice can also maintain the life of two granddaughters normally, and even the towel clerk who occasionally gets high also has a regular job. However, she has never had a stable and legitimate source of income, and her life has never been on the right track. When her role as a mother was questioned, a former friend left her. Society and the times abandoned her when her social role fell apart. In the film, she is superficially unrestrained, but the powerlessness, pitifulness, and depravity she shows are depriving her of her freedom little by little. She doesn't deserve sympathy at all in my eyes, she should pay for her youthful indulgence! Falling into this is not social injustice, not people's indifference and indifference, but her own laziness, ignorance, ignorance, and shortsightedness. She has a daughter in the film, but I never felt her role as "mother" in the film, she was more like Moonee's big sister. Under her influence, the six-year-old Moonee's speech is full of words and behaviors that do not match his age group, although a lot of footage is used in the film to show Moonee's own childhood fun, friendly partners and a beautiful world in this paradise , but under this bright appearance, we seem to be like the mood of Bobby, the hotel manager. Although we care and love the child, we feel helpless with her behavior and words, and we can't do anything about her experience and background.
At the end of the film, the setting of Janice holding Moonee's hand through the crowd to Disneyland is good, but I don't quite understand what it means? Are you looking for a real paradise? Or is the child yearning for Disneyland? Why not run towards the fallen tree? Moonee said it was her favorite tree when she and Janice ate jam and bread on that tree, "Cause it tipped over, and it still growing". Wouldn't the fallen tree better represent the friendship between the two children and their current situation? This is their own paradise. After Moonee cried to Janice (I have to say that the performance of the little actor who played Moonee was amazing) The scene change where Janice suddenly held Moonee's hand was so unexpected, the music rhythm suddenly accelerated, and the style change was a bit unprepared , the screen also enters fast forward mode. And at the end of Halley's close-up of her mouth, who was the "F**k you" shouted to? What kind of empty emotions do you want to vent? In the end, the manager Bobby's behavior and emotional expressions are believable. With the shaking camera, he walked downstairs with him. In the noisy corridor, he lit a cigarette. It seemed that his thoughts were empty, but he still couldn't help it. Look back.
