I only recently discovered that there are still quite a few movies that I don’t know what I want to talk about (it should be said that they are too many, too scary), and this is one of them. It was originally a popular story. There were several things inside the hard fortress. After reading it, there was only a mess in my mind. Is it necessary for sloppy water rats to appear for so long at the beginning? The protagonist mouse should say that he has no attraction as a hero, and his temperament is not cute. Can you become the protagonist? Multiple lines, regardless of the priority, are also a big problem. If the redundant story of the secondary line can be skimmed out, how good this film should be.
The handling of the small story "units" is quite good. The small scenes are full and beautiful, which is actually good enough for children. I really like that section of the mouse walking on the magnificent book, out of an entire story of the princess and the knight, such a line of pacing complete the book, it is so enviable! The mouse opened the king’s ears and tried to inform him that the princess was in danger. However, the king played the lute for his dead wife in the empty room. The sound of the piano was melodious and the lingering sound lingered in his ears. Before that, he had forbidden all good things, and his daughter was crying every day in the room. He never went out, because he played the piano against the portrait day and night in the room outside the princess's bedroom; the pig maid stole the crown and accessories, longing to be a princess since childhood. I also really like the setting of the Mouse Kingdom and the Underground Mouse Kingdom, the arena and the cage where the cat is tied; in the Forbidden Land there is a strangely shaped old man with cataracts, he tied a rope of random color on the waist of the exile, and turned to the well. Here, according to his sins hovering in front of different levels of hell gates, the innocent mouse jumped directly next to the dark underground stream, and was taken by the evil (but showing his face and pretending to be kind) by the head of the aboriginal people. The capital of sin. These scenes are all good.
At the same time, I was reading the history of Russian literature, and I was very depressed when I saw the Acts of the Duchy and the Acts of the Apostles. I really don’t like the age of knights and the story of knights. In the Middle Ages, each guarding the city and fighting each other in love and fighting. In such a world, except for a princess—the shadow is obscured. The ugly daughter of the landlord’s house; a prince who sees nothing but the main story line, and engages in activities that are tangled with magic, which often feels like it’s not a good thing to me—has nothing but a prince. In the same way, this kind of story, as well as making me feel that there is a "edge", I walked a few streets and ended up drinking a small kingdom of soup, I actually don't like it very much in my heart. Smart mice have to get on the boat, and mice must also know to be afraid. Another disadvantage of the princess/knight novel is that the ending is extremely boring.
(Supplement: I also envy Tang Chef. He opens the book and turns it to a certain extent, and he turns into a wonderful knight who is transformed from various materials of his work, namely fruits and vegetables, and gives him various ideas. There is such a thing. 'S industry guide-style friends are really great!)

The Tale of Despereaux quotes

  • Botticelli: You don't need to be afraid. I know it's dark, but you'll get used to it.

    Roscuro: Who... who are you?

    Botticelli: Just a rat, like you. Come with me.

  • Narrator: Ok, remember when we said that grief is a strongest thing a person can feel? Well, it isn't. It's forgiveness. Because a single act of forgiveness can change everything.

    Roscuro: [Roscuro drops the bone] No!

    Botticelli: What?

    Roscuro: No.

    Botticelli: You worthless little...!

    [rings the gong]
