At the beginning, we were all Paddington.
For some reasons, from a small remote city to an international city that everyone envy, I have no relatives, no one to rely on, and I can only rely on my own hands and brain to find a chance to survive.
Like Paddington Bears, we ran into the city with naivety and "stupidity", repeatedly bumping into walls, without retreating, and silently enduring all the ridicule and blows.
In the process of falling and getting up again and again, we developed a fighting ability, and gradually closed our hearts and became more and more "smart".
We are no longer easily bullied, we can easily see through other people's tactics, and even have the ability to bully others, and we really did.
We became the sophisticated and narrow neighbors around Mr. Brown, the "iron fists" no one dared to provoke in the prison, and Buchanan who was deeply lustful but unaware.
Only did not become Paddington.
Paddington is clumsy, old-fashioned, and even a little stubborn, seemingly incompatible with the "international city". But it has principles, treats everything around everyone with gentleness, sincerity and kindness, and loves life from the heart.
Even in the process, it will be hurt.
Looking back at ourselves, how much kindness and innocence have we lost along the way?
Similar to the theme of "Forgetting is the ultimate death" in the recent hot "Dream Travels", Paddington Bear is also afraid of being forgotten, especially Mr. Brown's family who treats it like relatives.
Paddington, who didn't want to be abandoned, broke his own principles and ventured out of prison with other inmates. I don’t know how many people see our own shadow from this point: in order to stay with important people, we have done a lot of stupid things, and even lost our reason and took risks.
Animated films have an advantage that other films can’t match, that is, they can use exaggerated movements and forms to create jokes. Paddington Bear's honesty and honesty brought a lot of laughs to the audience, and after the laugh, it made people think deeply.
Paddington is like a mirror, showing many unreasonable and even absurd social phenomena. At first glance, it makes people laugh. After careful consideration, he finds that he is also one of those absurd.
In an increasingly impetuous era, "trust" has become a problem that everyone avoids. Trusting someone means that you also have to bear the harm caused by possible betrayal, just like Paddington being abandoned by inmates after breaking out of prison.
However, no matter what kind of harm it receives, Paddington always believes that human nature is good, and before the real betrayal occurs, it chooses to trust others unconditionally. The film borrowed Mr. Brown’s mouth to praise Paddington, and also pointed out the theme of the film: it can always find the kindness in others, so it can make so many good friends wherever it goes.
Only those with a kind heart can awaken the sleeping kindness in others.
One point mentioned in "Identity Anxiety": Wealth does not just refer to large amounts of money. In history, money has not even been considered the primary component of wealth. Wealth is extremely rich. From butterflies to books to smiles, all beautiful things can be regarded as wealth.
An economically wealthy person in the United Kingdom also believes that wealth should belong to a unique type. He hopes to become rich in terms of "friendliness, curiosity, sensitivity, humility, piety and wisdom". He crowns these qualities with a simple The name-"Life".
The criterion for judging a person's success is not how much resources and material wealth he possesses, but whether he has always had a heart of gold.
By this standard, Paddington is one of the richest bears (and people) in the world.
"Paddington Bear" is a fairy tale for adults, given to us who have lost our innocence.
