The passion for life comes from ideals

Looking forward to watching, the animation co-produced by France and Canada is still not as good as the United States. The overall story is not well grasped, there are too many points, and a few clips are great. Once again, it is dominated by the heroine, telling you stories about dreams.

The plot of the hero and heroine who grew up in the orphanage escaped from the orphanage was a bit abrupt at the beginning. The screenwriter wanted to bury clues about the relationship between the two, but unfortunately it was not very clever. But I admire the courage of the two to pursue their dreams (in order to highlight the heroine, the film weakens the hero and turns the hero into a character revolving around the heroine, which feels a little unfair to the hero)

with the aura of the protagonist, the heroine With a little trick, I successfully blended into the ballet class at the Paris Theater. Through hard study and diligent practice, coupled with talent and luck, I finally succeeded in realizing my dream. The heroine is no longer the image of a saint, she can have a little bit of "revenge", and perhaps also tell people that sometimes very tricks can help us get what we want. I hope not to mislead the children watching the film too much, after all, not all extraordinary means can be used, the "degree" film did not say. But one thing is for sure, if you behave badly, like that rich lady, there will always be resentment and revenge.

The luck of the heroine, in addition to having a good friend and the hero, also has a teacher and supporter who is indispensable in fairy tales "with stunts but invisible in the rivers and lakes". The Maid used to be the best ballerina of her era, but unfortunately broke her foot before she became famous. When she saw the passion and vitality of the heroine, and the desire for her dream, she seemed to see her former self, so she was willing to teach the heroine ballet. Her love for the heroine is like a mother's love, but much better than the love of most biological mothers. She will not interfere, just accompany and teach, and support the heroine when she needs it. The hug of the heroine returning to the theater and her made me cry silently. The question she repeatedly asked the heroine "Why are you dancing", I think it can be used to ask myself every day, why do I do this? Such a problem, some people may not be able to find it in their entire life. But the heroine is lucky, her dream told her the answer: she was born with the gene to dance, because her mother loved dancing (the plot of the music box appearing in her sleep many times is too clear the answer)

In the end, she competed with a rich girl for a performance spot. The rich girl said that she was forced to dance by her mother, but the heroine said that dancing was in her life (so everyone should know in the future how to answer during the interview) Being forced by my mother is not what I like, so I have no enthusiasm, no passion, and no intention. I want to say to thousands of "rich girls", including myself, that it doesn't matter, one day, you will find the dream in your life, and then you can also have enthusiasm, passion, and work hard. The heroine's life is dancing, so her hard work and luck have helped her realize her dream, and that glorious jump is fixed in her heart.

I won't complain too much about the story of a weakened male protagonist, and the story of a blunt best male ballet student. In addition, there are ballet teachers who like strictness and talent, and ballet dancers with elegant temperament. Girls just want to dance from elementary school, which can not only cultivate their body shape, but also cultivate their temperament.

The good theme song was given a bad review at the beginning. At this time, the audience did not have any psychological foreshadowing, and this piece of music could not arouse all the emotions. It can be said that when I watched the MV a few weeks ago, I was more moved than the movie. This theme and this story may have somewhat disappointed me.
