People who are born sensitive must always embark on the path of growth alone

Before I met this movie, there was only one mountain in my heart for adult fairy tales.

That's Wes Anderson's stop-motion animation debut-The Great Fox Papa.

You may ask, how is this mountain range defined?

Of course, it has to be a good tune, a good story, a good soundtrack, and a teary smile and a poke. Probably because of his preference for Webster's unique accent, I have always loved the film.

But after brushing this one today, he soon got a new name on the list.

"The Bizarre Journey of Young Spyway" is not a young school, not a fantasy drifting.

Spavy’s director "Jean-Pierre Gennet" once shot a surreal and romantic movie like "Angels Love Beauty".

The beauty of the French is all in one frame after another. The quaint oil painting colors are presented in a state that every screenshot can be used as a wallpaper.

Is it really beautiful?



How to tell this story, I tried countless kinds of beginnings.

Later I thought, let's start with being different.

Mr. World is very busy, busy taking care of everyone's life. Therefore, he will never understand the sensitivity and lack of a unique child.

TSSpivet is such an alien, a genius boy who can create a perpetual motion machine at the age of 10.

This little scientific nerd has been trying his own way to integrate into the school and the family: help his mother draw hand-drawn drawings of insect specimens; when his father is worried about the ranch and river, he designs a model of the valley diversion pipe; his brother plays with a rifle, then he does it. Sonogram of the gun.

"So we can play together again"

He yearns for being needed, understood, and even more eager to be loved.

The younger brother is very much like the father, the cowboy spirit is full, and he can shoot a coyote 200 yards away. Dad loves his brother so much. After the accident happened when the barn was playing with a gun, he should have died by himself...

Yes, this is not a story about an adventure journey, and its warmth always reveals a little sadness.



After the accident a year ago, the family members tacitly avoided talking. But father occasionally stays silent, mother immerses herself in work to find a bug that will not appear, brother’s dog cassava card always bites the tin bucket.

They didn't say anything, but seemed to complain and blame invisible, even though he didn't even touch the trigger when it happened.

The work designed by TS won the Science Award, and the institute invited to give a lecture in Washington. Why not take this to leave home, go to places where you need yourself, to places where you can listen to what you say.

At dawn, Dad's car drove past him without stopping.

So, carrying a small suitcase at three o'clock in the morning, he went on the road like this.



"I can't deny that I'm not a carefree drifter, just a 10-year-old kid

running away from home." The train passed by many people with lights on, and TS imagined swapping roles with an ordinary boy. You can lie comfortably on your own small bed, watch the train go far away, and imagine a journey through the desert.

In movies, monologues account for a large proportion. It is these monologues that make you feel that not only TS is exiled in the soul, but also every sensitive us.

Everyone has a period of time, feel that no one understands their unspeakable grievances, experiencing an inner catastrophe in a time that others don't know.

They said that young people are forced to express their sorrow for new words, and only children who are still young and unworldly can give birth to so much emotion.

But whether you are a teenager or more mature. At that time, we suffered more serious and intensely than anyone else.

Even if we are so hypocritical, we still grow up into our own way, grown up into this or that kind of adults.



"After my brother died, Cassavaka fell in love with biting a wooden barrel, and his mouth bleeds. Then one day, my sister took it through the meadow for a long time. They sat down together and looked at the distant mountains. When they came back, it seemed that A certain agreement was reached. The cassava card no longer bites the iron bucket. It starts catching fireflies again, as before. Maybe one day, I can catch fireflies again."

TS finally arrived in Washington as he wished and took his family on the podium. The accident that I didn't want to mention was told frankly.

The mother found and told him that there is no need to feel guilty anymore, and the thing is over. Buying a gun as a gift for the children, and letting the two children play with the gun without the care of an adult is his own dereliction of duty. Father said that he was really not seen when driving.

So TS can finally untie the knot and climb on his father's back. Put his cowboy hat on his head, just like his father used to put his hat on his brother.

In the past, his family was his weakness.

Today, his family has become his armor.



"I don't know where you are going, but you will definitely find your perch." A

really good movie may not require gorgeous skills and exquisite scripts.

As long as it is moving enough, as long as it can touch the softest part of your heart, it allows you to see your own shadow.

As an audience, you can laugh or shed tears presumptuously, and then face life again.

This is a masterpiece for me.

And Spavii is such a masterpiece that cannot be missed.
