Many families in the movie have a good life, their children are highly educated, and they speak elegantly and decently. The five members of Saimu's family live in a shabby electrical appliance shop. The children’s game consoles are outdated, and the couple are late every time they go out. To find excuses, all purchases will be invoiced so that they can be reimbursed by the hospital. . . With all this, do you think that choosing and living in many families is the most perfect?
I have to say what kind of family makes what kind of children. I am not talking about blood but the education that parents give to children. Many fathers don't know how to fly kites with their children, so when they grow up, many naturally feel that children should do everything by themselves, bathing and playing alone. Keitamoto is a child of Saimu. He is introverted but observant of everything. He tries to make his father happy and learns the piano he doesn't like. He feels that everything his father says is right. He never goes against his father's wishes, only once. That was when Miao Duo gave his beloved camera as a gift to Qing Duo, he said "no". At first I didn’t understand the child’s way of doing things until at the end when a lot of people accidentally looked at the camera and found that there were many photos taken by Kyodo, some on the back, some asleep, some with bare feet, and a lot of them. He cried as he watched. At that time, he knew that even if he had no blood relationship, he still loved the child more, so he would not hesitate to change the child back. When many think that their children don't know anything, they actually understand it, just like Liuqing has so many "whys" and many don't know how to answer.
The movie focuses on Keita's family, and Saimu is the opposite of them. It may seem that nothing is as good as many families, but they are united, patient, and help each other. Can repair toys for children, can be used as archery targets for children, and can bathe with children. . . It doesn't matter whether the children live well or not, the company of their parents is the most important thing. This is also the reason why Liuqing can't blend in with her own parents.
Although Saimu loves to drill small and cheap, he is indeed a good father. When a lot of money is exchanged for children, Saimu is angry. "This world is not something you can buy with money." When Saimu said this, I thought he was radiating light all over his body, and finally when a lot of people went to see Ryuharu, Saimu's wife said, "If You don’t think we can take care of the children. We can bring them together.” Although such a family is not rich, the spiritual world is strong and many cannot catch up. So even if you give Liuqing the best growth environment, play with him, set up a tent together, watch the stars together, and make a wish together, you will not be able to offset the child's wish "I want to return to my parents."
Japanese movies are always delicate, no matter the scenery, music, background or silent gaze.
There is also a very detailed description in the movie. It is that the nurse who deliberately held the wrong child prepared some money to compensate many families, and many returned it in person. When Miao Duo returned the money to the nurse, it was humiliating. When he wanted to continue to say something, the nurse's stepson opened the door and stared at Miao Duo and said, "She is my mother." Shocked, he patted the child hard on the shoulder and left sadly. These have nothing to do with blood, but children do not distinguish between them, they only know who their relatives are.
The movie is great. Two hours are not only about family relationships, but also the common points and intersections between the three generations of father and son, and the bits and pieces of getting along between husbands and wives, the children in the eyes of adults and the children in the eyes of adults. We always look at the world with adult thoughts and eyes. We naturally think that what we do can never be wrong, but we often overlook that children’s hearts are sensitive and fragile. In the end, many of those words made by Qingdoshi when he recovered was his best confession as a father, "The mission is over!" Let's go home together!
