Generally speaking, it is a relatively plain movie, the plot is slow, there are not too many ups and downs, it is probably a faithful narration, as a dark fairy tale, there is not much effort in special effects and depicting scenes, probably still want people to focus on the story In itself, all the plot and fairytale-looking parts are understated, presumably just a little monotonous.
Probably fables and fairy tales have their own parts that can be gradually chewed and gradually pondered, and about three stories are about personal views
1. Queen and twins - children are not the property of the parents
In order to make the queen pregnant with a child, the king killed the sea monster alone. When the queen got the sea monster's heart, she did not cast any extra eyes on the king's body.
As she said to the prince "You have no idea how much I wanted you. How much I sacrificed for you."
(You don't know how much I want to have you, and how much I sacrificed to have you)
For her, children are more important than everything, even more important than her husband. When she took the bloody sea monster's heart from the soldiers, she didn't even look at her husband. In her eyes, there may be children more than The companionship of a partner is much more important.
At the same time, she is also a very controlling mother, constantly preventing the twins from meeting, so that in order to separate them, she does not hesitate to turn into a monster and kill the other. The queen's love for the prince is probably very deep and deformed. Her love is based on the premise of controlling the prince, as if the prince is her unique thing.
From the perspective of the relationship between mother and child, after many families have children, all the focus will be placed on the children, and the female side often needs to put in a lot of effort. Many people say that after having children, in a woman's heart , the priority of the children is higher than that of the husband.
The "widow-style parenting" is very clearly embodied in this story. The king, who was the father, died on the spot, which directly removed the influence factor from the narrative of our story. The absence of the husband in this relationship also allowed the queen to focus all her energy. In the prince, the queen undoubtedly loves the prince, but she does not love the twin who has the same appearance as the prince. So what exactly does she love about her child?
"You have my hands ,even though you were inside me only one night, you still managed to take on my form."
(Your hands are the same as mine. Even if you were born after only one night in my womb, you still inherited my face.)
She completely regards the child as a part of herself and completely ignores the child's inner feelings. Maybe the prince also loves her mother very much, but is the love that never asks the other party's feelings, is it love?
2. The old woman - what the face brings will also pass away with the appearance
The face is easy to pass, and the years are easy to grow old.
The king fell in love with the ugly woman because of his singing. The sister hesitated, not wanting to miss this opportunity as she struggled in her heart. The sister looked greedily at the jewels sent by the king, and even pushed her away when she touched it. She made her sister meet the king with glue on her sagging breasts. After the day was over, the king saw the old woman's amazing face through the candlelight, so she was thrown from the upstairs by the king. The story is full of deception at the beginning of the relationship, whether it's deceiving the king, or deceiving his own sister afterward.
Human nature is greed after all. It is undeniable that good looks will bring many conveniences to people. Many good-looking people walk less than those with ordinary looks just because they are beautiful. The old woman recovered after drinking the witch's milk. Young looks. When her sister asked her how to do it, she said that she had skinned herself, but after hearing that her sister's sister finally found someone to skin her, blood dripping from her body, she still walked to the palace in a maddening manner, as if she had become young and beautiful, just like a man. Just like becoming superstitious in pursuit of sex, many women have lost their minds in pursuit of beauty.
Probably our society is always educating us not to pay too much attention to appearance, but often a good appearance always brings a lot of social resources to Ren Meng, so women also rack their brains for appearance, but in love, good-looking people often There is a question of "whether the other party likes me or my appearance". In the story, the old woman's magic disappeared, she ran away in a panic, and everything her face brought became fragile as her face disappeared.
3. The love of the princess - don't put the right to influence feelings in the hands of others
In the story of the princess, she yearns for love, but is absurdly married to a troll with a keen sense of smell by passing the test of her louse father, to the brave, strong but not handsome man she wants, With a primitive life like a beast, after the mother and son of the circus rescued her, she could not escape the troll's pursuit like fate. When she thought that she would give in and choose to compromise in the face of fate, she slashed the troll's throat with another sharp blade. Get relief.
She failed to grasp the beginning of her marriage, and finally broke free and left the relationship on her own.
"Here is the husband that you chose for me."
(The husband you chose for me is here)
She finally broke free from the cage her father had built for her. Thinking of the separation of many friends, the partners who have loved and lived with each other for many years had to be separated because of the family relationship, and saw the shackles of the family that bound each other in marriage. Perhaps in the end, you can only obtain the autonomy of your own love through your own hands.
