8.7 It is a solid and steady realist work. The photography is very particular. The large green grass and groves are shot so green, natural and fresh, the narrative is restrained and calm, and there is no big ups and downs. However, it may be a big boring film for ordinary people. There is nothing new. The only thing that is new is that this boy raised an eagle (and he has also briefly mentioned the process of raising eagles), which is something we did not do in childhood. We raise silkworms, birds and fish (but basically There is no sense of guilt in raising death), and even raising cats and dogs (how many foods have been fed again? But it will be sad if you die), these are all very common, but I have never raised eagles?, let alone raising, catching Can't catch it.

Boys like Cusper will always meet in our childhood. They have dirty hands and feet, but they are not very greedy and cunning, and stealing is a huge number. They are mischievous but weak and deceiving, they are weak and deceiving but very stubborn. Such boys are generally poor or problematic in their families, either from divorced families or their parents, or they are disgusted by the villagers. And they are often accused of drinking and drinking at home, so they can't change this fate even at school. Although they are often stubborn and obedient, they are stubborn. They also want to change, but they know they cannot change. I thought of a boy like this in my mind. When I was a boy, I was two or three years old. Under normal circumstances, I would not bully the weak, but once he stole my things and was chased by me for two streets and beaten on the ground. After taking back my things, I warned him that stealing my things would be even worse.

Boys like them often have to wait until they reach adulthood to earn a full wallet with their intelligence and hard work, and they have to learn many customs and habits of receiving people and things, which means that they must conform to the mainstream values ​​of the society. The boy who was chased two streets by me had grown up and was taller than me. He went back to his hometown to drink tea at his home two years ago. It seems that he mixed well. He spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a suite in the county. . To be honest, his whole mental temperament is completely different from when he was a child. He speaks very confidently and loudly. When he speaks, he raises his head and looks at others. You must know that he was exactly the same as Kasper when he was a child.

Of course, "Children and?" is not just a simple story about a child and an eagle. The director uses more documentary methods to reflect the poor life (survival status) of the miners (lower-level) class of that era, and class differences. You can tell from the dressing of Casper and others at school, and then you will experience the director's compassion for the lower class. If your parents were miners or farmers, you can resonate with this movie. But now the left-behind children in rural areas are in the same situation as Casper. It is sad to think about it. You want to change, but you find that nothing can be changed, let alone those left-behind children. What do they rely on to change?

The so-called freedom and dignity are eagles that fly in the sky. They cannot be tamed. What people want to be tamed is to use education and tools to put ropes and shackles on other people. They think that they can gain trust and love.
