When we have secrets in our hearts, it means that we have the possibility to create lies. The movie "The Fallen Idol" revolves around such an unavoidable question. Although it is a story of three or four people, it does not seem to be complicated, but because there are ignorant children, lying men, lying women, and police officers who keep asking questions, the story is no longer simple, but enriched. This film is not an obscure sermon, but a taste of the extraordinary dilemma, but also the common human dilemma, in a well-written, logical reality.
In the adult world, the honesty of children should always be guarded against. It is full of subtleties. Adults avoid children and feel as if they can use their little knowledge to complete their secrets that are not known to others. Mr. Baines and her lover julie's date was such a hid of little Phillipe and a reckless conversation. But in the end Mr. Baines asked Phillipe not to tell Mrs. Baines about his relationship with Julie.
But children don't know the importance of keeping secrets. After little Phillipe was forced to tell Mrs. Baines the secret, he asked Mr. Baines, is keeping secrets really that important? At this time, Mr. Baines was taking julie to Little Phillipe's apartment (Mr. Baines is the deacon, the housekeeper).
When Mrs. Baines gets a secret, so is little Phillipe and hers. When the young child nodded in agreement, he did not expect that the leak of the secret would lead to a case where life is at stake. Mrs. Baines deliberately said that he was out, causing Mr. Baines and his lover to go on a date at home. Behind the establishment of the secret, there is a conspiracy.
What really confuses children between lying and honesty is Mrs. Baines' fall from a building. He only saw the moment when Mrs. Baines fell downstairs. Although he hated Mrs. Baines, he still felt that Mr. Baines, whom he had always loved, was probably the murderer who pushed his wife downstairs, because little Phillipe saw the first two People's quarrel, coupled with the tragedy at the end, although he did not see the process in the middle, but his associative ability was enough to push him to the conclusion of the "homicide" murder case.
But in order to save his idol Mr. Baines, little Phillipe began to lie during the police interrogation. Children don't have the tricks of adult planning, and they don't know which ones to be honest and which ones to lie. Of course, in the end it was all clear that Mrs. Baines slid down the floor-to-ceiling windows.
And it was this ingenious design (the real death of Mrs. Baines, he didn't see) that caused little Phillipe to interfere with the adults' thinking again. If he had witnessed the true cause of Mrs. Baines' death, things would have been less turbulent. Movies aren't that attractive either.
People don't listen to him anymore, the police say it directly, let's not be disturbed by children anymore. Little Phillipe becomes the most innocent and most confusing character. However, the tragedy caused by the cover-up of the secrets of the two people, he is really afraid of the secrets given by others. It seems to have some meaning of sharing, but there is a complicated reality behind it.
