The story is alive, but how it grows depends on the people who read it.
-"The Book of Lost Property"
A film that is not good enough. As a child, its topic is too heavy. As an adult, its rhythm and form are a bit worse. But from another perspective, it allows adults to better understand the sensitivity and delicateness of children, and allows children to better understand the pressure and reality that there is nowhere to be placed in the adult world. Just like when I was watching "The Book of Lost Objects", I didn't expect it to be such a sum of fiction and reality. I didn't expect it to be such a fairy tale.
A mother who has cancer, a father who has no money to rent a big house, a grandmother who talks about a generation gap, an obnoxious school bullying, a sensitive 12-year-old boy, life is so realistic and cruel. Everyone is right, everyone is wrong. Fortunately, the monster in the dream appeared. Although it appeared in a scary way, it was also the owner of the superpowers that every child dreamed of. The children dream that it can defeat bad people, diseases, and all difficulties and sorrows. But it doesn't. It only wants to tell three stories, and exchanges these three stories for a story that the child doesn't want to tell.
The young Connor is resistant. He resists the truth that his mother is about to leave him. He is so afraid of his mother’s departure that his mother’s existence cannot make him feel happy; he resists his grandmother, who is old and staid. Many; he resisted the school, everyone in the school treated him as transparent, so much so that he would rather be beaten. He begged his father to take him out of his current environment, but his father couldn't do it. Sometimes I try my best, sometimes I can't do anything.
The monster said: How can a prince be a murderer and be loved by others How can a pharmacist have evil thoughts and be upright? How can a transparent person be seen and make him more lonely Because man is a complex animal, you believe it is comforting Lies, but knowing the truth of the pain makes those lies seem necessary
The teenager’s psychology is full of sensitivity. He knows that his mother is about to leave and will never come back. He knows that there is love and generation gap between his grandmother and him. He knows that his father’s new family is difficult for him to integrate into. He knows that the pity in people’s eyes treats him. It is a secondary injury.
He resists reality, but accepts reality. Because no matter how resistant you are, reality will always happen and children will always grow up
The Lost and Found Book says that every adult has a child in his heart, and in every child's heart, there is a future adult waiting quietly. Sometimes, children's bearing capacity and adaptability will always exceed our adults' imagination.
Restrain impulse, restrain sorrow, restrain what you want and what you have. Learn to be considerate, consider the hardships of others, and consider your own reasonable emotions. Compassionate love and unaccompanied love. Be considerate of the imperfections of your imperfect world and the imperfections of life. Learn to be considerate, and you can walk out of the darkness and heal slowly.
The limitation of children is that what they know is what adults want them to know, and what they see, hear, and learn is not comprehensive.
And one day, sooner or later, they will see the gloom and darkness on the back of the sun in this world, and the people they care about fall by the side of the road and can no longer protect them and love them.
They will grow up overnight, and from that moment on, the process of turning him into an adult will solemnly begin.
