For you, thousands of times. This was the last Amir said to Hassan's son, and it was Hassan's promise to his brother, his master and friends. By the way, before the last sentence of Amir came out thousands of times, I thought the film had come to an end, but when I was glad that the ending was still satisfactory, his sudden sentence made me cry again. The director's response here is really deliberate. Including the scene where the two brothers who were finally defeated by Sohrab and Amir scolded the younger brother, also coincided with the scene of the childhood kite contest. However, I am very grateful for this deliberateness. The director's arrangement made me think more and experience more.
When Amir came back to Kabul, I kept looking forward to what it would be like to meet Hassan and what they would say. However, the lovesickness, encounters, and changes that have been separated for more than 10 years can only be told with a photo and a letter. At that moment, I was really disappointed. When Hamill heard that Hassan was his own brother, the anger in his eyes that he thought he had been deceived, and even the attitude of his reluctance to go to the orphanage to find his nephew at first made me very angry. After more than ten years, why is he still like a young master who has not grown up and can only escape. But the story is so smooth and smooth, and our protagonist has grown into a real man.
I think a character like Sohrab is really important, he is actually a shadow of Hassan. From the appearance of Sohrab, the scene of the film, as if time went back to Kabul in 1976. A series of fragments coincide with it. But what has changed is our Amir. Before, when Hassan was bullied, Amir was a coward who would only hide in a corner and tremble. Today, he is a man who can risk his life and learn to protect others when faced with the Taliban, which is more terrifying than a kid like Assef. When Sohrab pulled out the slingshot I was convinced that the director wanted us to find out. In the past, it was Hassan who helped him win in the kite master, helped him chase the kite, and everything was for him. Now, he told Sohrab that it was for you, thousands of times.
I like this kind of literary film very much. There are inexhaustible elements in it, and it is the material that will make me think about tangled after watching it. It's not like the usual movies in the United States, which will be thrilling when watching, but what we get is actually just the excitement at that moment. I really hope that there will be more films like this to discuss with you. In addition, do you have any similar movie recommendations for children in the Middle East? I really like the way they feel in the movie. There is a feeling of being young and old, and the acting is so natural.
