2. I believe that anyone who has read the novel can feel the shock lingering in their hearts, so as soon as they put down the book, they downloaded the movie again. The advantage of the film is its figuration, it will bring the abstract details that were overlooked in the hasty reading to the eyes with full color, so we have a more intuitive understanding of this story, this pair of friends and even the culture of Afghanistan as a country and country. . The downside is that when a book is put in front of directors and creators, their first task is to choose and simplify. I noticed that most of the criticism of the film by the media and audiences focused on its shallow taste. For example, Rolling Stone said that it "oversimplifies, even to the point of stingy, the details of the Afghan culture mentioned in the novel." And "World View of Cinema" also said: "Director Mark Foster just expressed the relatively cruel situation and social hierarchies with a Disney-style ideal state." The reason for this result is not It should be attributed to the individual. After all, movies cannot replace novels, and the limited space and shooting conditions (even the Afghanistan scenes were shot in Kashgar, Xinjiang, China) may become limiting factors.
3. Fortunately, the film still laboriously tells us a fascinating story, at least in my opinion, which makes people feel very immersive. For those of you who have watched this movie, will you miss the childhood friend who is willing to fly kites for you, "for you, thousands of times", and wonder where he (she) is now?
4. After being away from home for many years, it is rare to return to the place where I lived in my childhood during the Spring Festival this year. The former fields have been obscured by high-rise buildings, and the smooth roads that used to run with lines in the old days are now covered with wires, and it is no longer possible for kites to fly in the sky. Today's children, holding Nintendo and PSP a few years ago, only hold iPads now. Sometimes I wonder, did they have a happy childhood? Maybe each generation has its own "customization". And what saddens me is that my childhood playmates, my friends who smashed their heads with bricks but still won't leave after their injuries, would stick out their heads from the next window immediately after finishing their homework and call for them to come together The neighbors who started the voice of "Little Bully's Endless Fun" have now disappeared from memory and drifted away.
5. Class is the most shameless invention of mankind. Even in our society that claims to have eliminated class, you can still feel the pressure of so-called class. Self-deprecating terms like Gao Fushuai, Bai Fumei, and Diaosi were born, but at least we are equal in dignity, so can we really understand the feeling when Hasan is still calling Axel "Master" when he shoots his slingshot?
6. Little Hassan always finds exactly where the kite falls. Amir asked Hassan why he was sure he would know, and Hassan affirmed to Amir, I just know, and then asked back, when did I lie to you. The movie made him look amazing, always running in the opposite direction of the other kids, and at the end the kite would fall into his hands obediently. But in fact, it should be thought of this way: we don't need to know where the broken kite will fly, as long as you can give your heart to it, it must be in the direction you are looking for!
