I'm really sorry for confusing "Forest of Fireflies" with "Grave of Fireflies". I only remember watching "Grave of the Fireflies" when I was a child, and it was a monologue at the beginning: I am dead. Then I was so frightened that I stopped watching immediately. Today, with the mood of watching war, disaster, and disaster films, I opened this "Forest of Fireflies", and found that it is completely different from that one, hehe? Although "Forest of Fireflies" is very short, it contains Contains a lot of warmth. In summer, Takechuan Ying came to play at grandpa's house, but got lost in the forest. She was so frightened that she cried, and suddenly a boy appeared. Take Chuan Ying was so happy that she wanted to jump up and hug him, but Ah Yin said He is a monster and cannot be touched by humans. Since then, they have become friends. Every summer, Hotaru Takekawa comes to the forest to see Ah Yin. Ah Yin grows very slowly, as if time is an exception to him. The relationship has gradually changed, from: "We seem to be dating" "It's just a date that is not romantic at all" to ↓ "It seems that we are dating" "We are just dating"
The finale is dreamy, at the end of their lives, they can finally hug. Is there an Ah Yin in everyone's heart? They are the hope in our hearts, the motivation that keeps us going. And when we grow up, they disappear. When Takekawa Hotaru hugs the disappearing Ah Yin, is she also embracing her disappearing childhood?
Although I'm pretty sure the director didn't mean that, but I got that information from his films. I think this is the most moving part of the movie! Just like there are 1,000 Hamlets in the eyes of 1,000 people, every movie also belongs to everyone, and everyone can understand it from their own perspective. There is no so-called correct interpretation, just to see which interpretation resonates the most, Which one is the most reasonable. It's also very interesting to think about being a director. My own films obviously didn't mean to say this, but they were understood as such, which might inspire me a lot or be shocked! ??
