This is a movie I watched in the last one-day POV workshop. It is a very good and healing movie. Of course, just like a thousand people will have a thousand Hamlets, this movie will have different shocks in the eyes of different people, but I would like to say the part that touched me the most this time.
The beginning of the film is very depressing, mysterious people, arduous tasks, escape from the concentration camp, and go far away alone.
From this main line, it is a process of how a person runs towards freedom and dreams. There are all kinds of hardships on the way, just to make the final ending more sweet and moving.
In the process of watching the tears for the first time
, I seemed to divide myself into several parts, one part followed the little boy for a long distance, one part looked at it calmly, and the other part always had a lot of feelings.
But the tears came near the end of the first night after the little boy escaped to Switzerland with the help of the old lady. The right thing is to escape. Before that, he had been in a state of escape, escaping the cruelty of the concentration camp, escaping the fear of the crowd, and escaping the yearning for beauty. He couldn't believe anyone, and also thought that he didn't deserve to have good things (leaving the little girl's manor), even in his eyes, full of depression and cover up, the old lady's painting, painted that full of scars and defensive him. So when he finally tried to open his heart and be willing to have more contact with people and hug the old lady, my eyes started to turn red, and when the old lady kissed him while he was asleep and told him "everything will be alright", I tears fell. "Everything will be fine" is the most comforting sentence in times of pain. It is also a dream, but it is also a fact. The wounds we have suffered and the bitterness we have tasted in life are always for us to enjoy other sweets more. And here, on this old lady, the little boy finally has to learn the most important lessons in his life, love and trust!
Tears collapsed
in the church on the hillside. A group of villagers were singing hymns in harmony, but the man with a gun, who most frightened the little boy, appeared beside him.
Along the way, such people have given him a lot of fear, and these are exactly what he knew in the concentration camps since he was a child. People with guns are brutal and controlling, and they are the source of fear. And his such cognition has also created him to encounter such people constantly along the way, which proves that his idea seems to be right.
But what the old lady told him made him decide to make another opposite choice at that moment, looking back with fearful eyes, bowing his head and taking a deep breath, and looking up again "Hello"! And the police officer's reaction was just like his, vigilant scrutiny, deep consideration, and a smile after receiving the greeting. Sometimes people treat us badly, not as we decided before, and when we let our guard down, everything is different.
That flip moved me a lot too. At the same time, the flashing pictures also made up for my confusion about the plot before, who told the little boy to deliver the letter, who gave the little boy the way, what happened to John in the end, who was injured and who was killed by the shot ? What happened to the mother whose little boy was taken away? What does that white-covered book that always appears?
The officer in the concentration camp who always represented the evil forces in the little boy's heart was actually the one who took care of him in the concentration camp, helped him escape, helped him prepare documents, and told him Jin Yuliangyan on the way to escape. This kind of struggle also shows the complexity of people.
The phrase "don't trust anyone" supported the little boy's escape from the concentration camp to Switzerland, but in fact, the more he went on, the less it helped him. On the contrary, it was the people he didn't trust very much who always helped him.
The evil of human nature is what he saw and learned the most in the concentration camp. A little boy who can't even smile. During such a long journey, he slowly learned to smile, learn to trust, and learn that people also have love.
As the old lady said, of course there are bad people, but there are more good people. If you reject everyone in order to guard against bad people, then there are actually only bad people in the world.
The last book that kept appearing in his sight actually represented his home and happiness.
There may be real bad people and good people in this movie, but in fact everyone has a white side and a black side. The little boy also stole things, and his friends are likely to die because of it, but if we really divide each individual, then the world becomes fragmented, as sharply demarcated as the concentration camps and the world outside the camps. We cannot refuse to trust for fear of being hurt.
When the little boy finally plucked up the courage to say "hello" to the world, the world also showed kindness to him. Although these defenses of "don't trust anyone" can help the little boy escape from the concentration camp, they can't help him to be happy, knowing that he is willing to stretch out his hand to the old lady and open his embrace.
Of course we can be stubborn and justify the events of being hurt in childhood, but then our adult world will be no turning point, like the conflict encountered on the way of the little boy's escape, the chase.
To be right, or to be happy? This is the eternal question!
