Today, let's talk about the movie "Want to Cry, I Put on a Cat Mask".
The title of the film is 偍たいprivate cat をかぶる / A Whisker Away (2020), alias unlimited / I want to cry I put on a cat.
"Want to cry, I put on a cat mask" is a youth animation film produced by NETFILX and produced by STUDIO COLORIDO, who produced "Penguin Highway".
The film is directed by famous Japanese animation directors Junichi Sato and Chitaka Shibayama.
It can be seen that this film is consistent with the style of "Penguin Highway".
The heroine is a junior high school girl, Miyo Sasaki, who is nicknamed "Infinite" because she likes to keep making noises. Miyo Sasaki likes Kento Hinode, a boy in his class, and makes no secret of her love for him. She surrounds Kento Hinode every day, expecting a little response.
Miyo Sasaki meets a mysterious man who sells cat masks during an adventure.
As long as she wears a cat mask, Miyo can transform into a cute cat, so that she can easily get close to Hinode Sage. Approach slowly, accompany you quietly, and be a little cat next to your favorite boy.
In short, "Want to Cry, I Put on a Cat Mask" tells the story of a girl who is pregnant with spring. Miyo Sasaki, who is in love at the beginning of her life, is radical and bold. She doesn't care about other people's eyes at all. She pursues it boldly if she likes it.
Compared with those twisted youthful love stories, this film is more relaxed and direct. Everyone is busy studying, and they don't have so much time to speculate on other people's thoughts. It's a convenience for everyone to speak straight, although in a conservative social environment, it may seem like an outlier, but that's what makes her cute.
As the film deepens, the audience gradually understands Miyo Sasaki's family background.
In fact, she was using liveliness to cover up her inner depression and depression. Every family has scriptures that are difficult to read, and her family is no exception.
But she was not defeated by these difficulties, but faced the challenges of life with a positive attitude. In this regard, the film is still very positive.
By wearing a cat mask, you don't need to care about human eyes, and at the same time you can know what other people don't want to say. The film escapes reality in such a fantastical way, just like the children in the rebellious period of their youth who want to say no to the world and shout loudly for all kinds of unpleasant things.
Escape is not the patent of young people, more people choose to escape all the time, give up the human body, and turn to be a carefree cat. When life is unsatisfactory, they choose to give up life and longevity, and solve the problem with a mentality that Laozi is no longer playing.
But in the end it has to come back to reality.
When young people have not experienced social beatings, how can they easily give up a good life? After an adventure, Sasaki Miyo and others rediscovered the meaning of being human.
The answer given by the film is "love". As long as there is love, all kinds of problems can be solved. There can be ignorant love between teenagers and selfless affection between relatives. The solutions are conventional but effective.
Thank you for loving me and I love you too.
The film is ultimately a story about youthful love. Fourteen-five-year-old children are beginning to fall in love, and the love in their eyes is the mutual goodwill and the willingness to give that follows.
When an adult sees this kind of sweet feeling, it is probably like the dead deer in his heart suddenly squatting. If they can come together from this to the end, it is the best ending, if they can't go to the end, it is also a good memory.
Let go and love, and that's fine.
Come back to reality and face it bravely.
