This is a story of self-redemption and healing. Xing Nai suffered too much loneliness and fear because of the death of her relatives, and the time she spent with her parents and grandmother when she was a child, because she was too young, she forgot all the memories, she forgot her parents, her Grandma once loved her deeply, but she only remembered that all her relatives abandoned her and left her, and she also knew that she was just an adopted child. She called her adoptive mother aunt, not mother. When she learned that her adoptive mother would receive a monthly alimony from the community, she felt even more distressed. She thought that if she was her own child, the adoptive mother would not adopt the alimony, so the adoptive mother was only able to adopt the alimony because of the alimony. take care of her. Anna likes to draw. Whenever everyone is playing together after class, Anna just sits under a big tree and draws. At a young age, she divides the distance between people as outside and inside the circle, while those Children who grew up beside her parents are all in the circle, and they automatically classify themselves as outside the circle. Because of this difference, she has a deep and deep sense of loneliness in her heart, and because of this sense of loneliness from the heart She didn't dare to have any intimate relationship with anyone. She didn't want to play with other children. She liked to be idle and in a daze. She liked the gray weather, because it was in line with her mood. People come to bother her, and no one cares whether her mood is good or bad. Although this feeling of freedom is actually a kind of loneliness, she is willing to get along with herself only.

Because of her illness, she went to live in the country for a period of time. There is a long coastline, there are country roads, there is a blue and pure scene, and the most impressive thing for Anna is a house, which is obviously the first place in the journey. The house I saw for the second time always seemed to have a feeling of deja vu. This house was unusual. It stood on the coast, like a peaceful old man, as if he had been there for a long time, watching the ebb and flow, Day after day, forgetting the hustle and bustle of the world behind the house, sinking into a peaceful dreamland, dreaming of a long summer, Anna looked at the old house with longing eyes, feeling that it was a safe and eternal place. There she met Marnie, who was a bright girl in front of Anna. Likes to laugh, dances, has long hair, wears a princess dress, and lives in this house. Xing Nai told Marnie how much she envied her, but Marnie also told Xing Nai that she actually envied her. In fact, her parents often went out and left her alone at home, and the mother-in-law and sisters at home treated her badly. When dressing her and combing her hair, she deliberately hurt her, but no one knew, and no one believed her when she said it. Both of them said to each other that among all the people and scenery they met, the one I liked the most was you.

The meeting between Mani and Anna is only known to Anna, and no one knows that she met such a girl in this country. Xing Nai slowly wondered if Marnie's existence was just a fantasy by herself. She walked into the house where Marnie lived, where another little girl lived, but the little girl discovered Marnie's diary, Marnie's The diaries are all real. Ms. Hisako was Marnie’s childhood friend. The childhood Marnie she described was exactly the same as what Marnie had to say to Anna. In the end, Anna’s adoptive mother came to pick her up and showed her a photo. Tell her that when she first brought her home, there was a photo that Anna was holding tightly in her hand, and when Anna opened the photo, it was this house, and the back of the photo had Marnie's name written on it. Xing Nai suddenly realized that everything about Marnie was real. She didn't let her fantasize it. She had heard a story in the depths of her memory, and it was a personal experience her grandmother once told at her bedside. And Marnie was her grandmother. Marnie said, "Among all the girls, I like you the most." This sentence is true. Marnie really likes Anna the most. Marnie has always hoped to take good care of Anna and love her.

Anna, who has never been able to get out of her own circle, and who has always been confused and lonely, at this moment, her heart is finally filled with warmth. She originally thought that all the people in this world didn't love her, so she would rather stay alone in her own world. Now she learned how much her grandmother had loved her. "Marnie in Memories" is a simple and heart-warming film. In this world, there are always such girls. She may be withdrawn, not good at words, be called strange by others, and be incompatible with other girls, but in fact, they Not so lonely by nature. They may not be treated gently in their childhood, when they get along with their parents. Their parents may have left her for some reason and hurt her, but they can actually grow into bright and sunny girls. But before that, people have to convince her that there are people in this world who really love them deeply, and make them believe that they are worth it in getting along with others! If they have never been so lucky, I believe they are also kind people. They have experienced lonely moments, and they understand the sadness of the world better, and are willing to keep their tenderness inadvertently with the people around them and the world. When they grow up, they will grow from what others call a withdrawn and strange girl to a very mature, willful, independent girl. After watching this movie, I have a feeling of nostalgia and a little sadness in my heart. Then I found this original book to read, and this story also left a scene in my heart, a little girl. I am an adult now, and when I finished reading this story, I realized that there is still a little girl living inside of me. She may be Marnie or Anna, and she has always hoped to wait for the miracle of growth, and then really grow up and become a real adult.
