Everyone has a country

The cover photo of the movie is beautiful. . . One that I take for granted is an animation. . did not expect.

The beginning is the restlessness and unease surging under the calm music. A lonely child, he has a small kingdom in his heart. In the kingdom, his mother and sister are all around him, watching him play with loving eyes and admiring his castle. Life is simple yet so fulfilling. But everyone has his own world, and no one belongs to anyone. Sisters will have friends, and moms will eventually find another dad. Our stubborn prince cannot stand any "betrayal". So he wanted to find a real kingdom of his own, and he was the king of that kingdom. Luckily he was able to find a group of pure beasts and a friend with a similar character to him. carols. He also built a castle in his heart. As long as you stick out the hole, you can see him and KW wandering happily together in the ocean, and the other partners play happily. No loneliness, no worries. forever. This stubbornness can make him smash all the houses, make other friends angry, and even sacrifice other people's arms.

So this is a kid's movie, in a kid's world, what desperately desires is the gaze and concern of others. I am most afraid of losing what I love most.

This reminds me of my childhood. As an only child, I have had a lot of dolls, big and small, all over the house. Parents are very busy, leaving early and returning late. Every day I can only play with my doll, play house, and get injections. . . He wrote and acted a lot of plays. (It was really boring) Once my sister came to play at my house, and my mother gave her a doll, but I cried and made trouble but refused to agree. (And there are photos as proof...) Later, every time I see this ugly picture of crying, I feel embarrassed. . How could I be so stingy before. But thinking about it now, once you think you own a lot of things, it’s hard to give them to others.

This reminds me of my beloved poet Gu Cheng, a big kid who lives forever in his own country. Wholeheartedly want to be a prince, and then keep whatever he loves and people. It's a pity that no matter how wayward he is, the child will eventually grow up, and this perfect castle will collapse and turn into ruins over time. . .

    When a tall live-action actor puts on a furry beast costume, it is doomed to be different from pure computer special effects.

    The story can be a little more adult, and it looks a bit embarrassing now: adults may feel a little bored, but children are happy to watch although they don’t know what the movie is really talking about...
