Children with miracles, miracles happen, brisk rhythm, warm lights, people who understand each other, scavengers who live in rubbish but are content, abandoned people who have never felt love but still want to bring people A warm sexual pervert (the interpretation translated as shemale when watching the film really confuses me), a girl who ran away from home and thought she would be hated but gradually understood her parents' intentions, one Christmas night, a child suddenly appeared , changed their peaceful lives and triggered a series of miracles of softness and tenderness.
Tokyo Godfather, my first reaction to the name was that it was a Japanese remake of "The Godfather". I thought it was a Japanese gangster, but after watching the movie, I realized that there was no feud, no murder, just a mutual relationship. A journey of redemption.
All three are "homeless" homeless. Why the double quotes? Because their "home" is there, it's not that they can't go back, they just need an excuse, an opportunity, an excuse and an opportunity given by themselves. But it is very difficult for them to take that step. Even if they have a strong desire and do their best to take that step, they hold back because they are afraid of the consequences of taking that step. And the arrival of this child broke the vicious circle that they had been circling. They took this step and found out that what they were afraid of was nothing at all.
Mr. Jin broke up with his family because of alcoholism and gambling, Miss Ahua separated from her former friends because of beatings and emotional injuries, Miyuki stabbed her father and ran away from home thinking she was wanted, they all thought they would not be accepted by the people around them , but Mr. Kim's wife and daughter have been looking for him after he left and maintain the bicycle shop, they don't hate him; Ahua's boss didn't want to fire him because Ahua beat people; Miyuki's father also The cat is back, and I hope Miyuki can come back, not resentful that she stabbed him.
Perhaps what Mr. Jin Min wants to tell us is to pay more attention to the people around you. They may not be perfect or rich, but they always love us. They will tolerate our mistakes and accompany us through some difficult times. They are always with us, and it would be foolish to part with them for something, because the bond between us is the most important thing.
The story may be romantic, and many situations seem so unreal. But this is animation, who cares if so many realities are not realistic, what we like is the dream of the owner with a happy ending. Isn't a movie a dream machine?
