If the name appeared at the beginning, people would probably think, who is moana?
who is moana?
This question happens to be the core question that the whole movie has been discussing.
If we put our eyes on Maui, Tfiti, and even the black chicken.
You will find that whether it is a mortal or a demigod, it does not matter if it is a god, even an animal.
They all need a question and an answer: "Who am I? Who decides who I am?"
/ / moana / /
Moana has probably been determined since she was born. She is the chief daughter of a tribe on the island, As the heir to the chief, she was chosen to become the leader.
Later, when her young body approached the sea for the first time, the sea made way for her to let her see the ocean world and let her pick up the shells she wanted.
It was like a dream, but she was summoned by this dream. In the fragments of her growing years, on the one hand, she was taught by the tribe how to be an excellent and qualified heir to the chief, on the other hand, she always saw a sea on the outer edge of the island. She yearns for the farther side of the sea.
But her father stopped her time and time again, she couldn't help but she tried to rebel once, but failed. The sea was indeed as terrible as her father said.
But she still has a faint question in her heart. She can't speak clearly, but is eager to tell her from the grandma who has been dancing on the beach. Moana asked grandma, do you really have anything to say to me?
Grandma told her before she died, that the sea had chosen you. You are going to find the demigod Maui who stole the heart of Tefiti, cross the sea and return that heart.
Once again, moana was chosen by the sea.
Moana led by the spirit of the ancestors of the voyager, and hoped that the tribe would survive, crossed the sea alone to find Maui.
As a result, Moana completed two "selections", selected by family blood, and selected by mission responsibility.
Grandma asked her how to tell
Maui— "I am moana from the Mornes tribe, and I am here to take you across the sea to return the heart of Tfiti." Mona
was on her way to find Maui, Keep practicing, keep repeating, keep suggesting yourself, and give yourself courage.
However, at this time Moana really knows "Who am I?" The
question is here first.
/ / Maui / / On
the island where Maui is located, this demigod was brave and fearless, but because he stole the heart of Tefiti and induced evil cards to devour the human world, losing it can make him change like Monkey King. The magic fishhook looks like it has been banished from the island.
The true Maui who is not in the legend appears on the stage, and his self-confidence is called narcissism. He brags about himself and deceives Moana's boat by bragging about himself.
"I am moana, you have to cross the sea with me to return the heart of Tefiti."
Maui refused this matter. He couldn't look down on a "little princess" who lacked even basic sailing skills. It succeeded what he could not do at the beginning, but he could not get away, the sea did not let him go, nor did he allow him to take Moana away.
Maui asked
tirelessly , "Why did the sea choose you?" Moana told him angrily, because he stole the heart and the evil card came, and it was because of what you did that I was chosen to come here.
As a demigod, Maui is actually a child born to a mortal. He was abandoned by mortal parents and chosen to be a demigod by the gods. A child who did not get a complete family but was abandoned by his parents would naturally want to please others because of him. In the subconscious, I hope to get the love and needs of the mortal world to make up for the lack of mortal parents. This can be established in psychology.
But this kind of unhealthy ingratiation and satisfaction fuels human beings who are greedy and unsatisfied, take away the heart of Tefiti, and the evil card comes.
Only then did I know that Maui, who showed his tattoo on his back, was also the one who was selected and survived. He is the same as Moana, and came here with "selected" on his back.
Moana told him that you decide that you are Maui, not a god.
Yes, like the totems painted piece by piece of the stories he has experienced, it is these bit by bit that made him the Maui he is today.
The two "chosen" people finally got back the magic fish hook that Maui believed was the most important, but he lost the mana that could control it freely.
Moana stubbornly faced Eka. In order to save her, Maui had damaged most of the fish hook. He was furious. It seemed that he would not be Maui without the fish hook. It seemed that he had become nothing, nothing, and powerless to do anything.
Maui's departure also shook Moana, and the interrogation and anger of the partner exposed the problem left by the above again.
Moana cried to the sea who had chosen her and said why she chose her, she couldn't do it, so let's find a more suitable person.
Moana actually doesn't really know who she is, so she doesn't understand why she was chosen.
Until the fish that grandma turned into crossed the dark sea and came to Moana with the only piece of light.
"It doesn't matter, I shouldn't put such a heavy responsibility on you."
Grandma comforted and relieved Moana, but when Moana was about to paddle to the island, she couldn't get out of this step.
With the oars resting on the water, Moana realized that she was actively choosing in her heart, actively choosing to return the heart of Tefiti.
//Tefiti //
The heart of Tefiti has been mentioned countless times, and finally it's time to talk about who she is.
At the beginning of the story, in the legend that grandma told, she was the goddess who created all things. After her heart was stolen by Maui, the evil card appeared and Tefiti disappeared.
However, just when Moana finally successfully arrived on the island of Tefeti, she realized that Tefeti’s disappearance did not really disappear. Behind her, Eka had the same totem as Tefeti’s heart. .
It turns out that the evil card is Tefiti, that is, if you lose your heart, you lose your own Tefiti.
It turns out that God is the same, like Moana, and Maui, also facing the dilemma of losing himself, not knowing who he is, and forgetting who can decide who he is.
So far, the plot that touched me the most in the whole film appeared. Moana looked fearless. She looked at the evil card that was about to destroy Maui. She let the sea make a way for her and take away the water that evil card is most afraid of. "Let her come over."
Moana is no longer afraid of this legendary evil card, because she knows that she is just like herself, and has forgotten the "only you can decide who you are" Tefeti.
Eka also calmed down and closed his eyes. When Tefeti's heart returned to her, Tefeti, who had created all things, returned.
//Only you can decide who you are. //
Till here, the story is over, and we will find that the main characters in the movie, Moana, Maui, Tefiti, and Eka, are actually accomplishing the same One thing is to find the answer to the question I mentioned at the beginning-
"Who am I? Who decides who I am?"
Everyone's birth is chosen, and some people are lucky, and then they can choose themselves. There are also many misfortunes in the life trajectory, what kind of education he chooses to receive, what kind of profession he chooses to pursue, and there are many misfortunes. The power of being "chosen" is too strong, and only living the life of being "chosen" and being pushed away by life, Follow the flow of life.
But the dilemmas faced by the two are equal. In the process of choosing, it is impossible for people to hit it at once. Like moana, people will experience the first failure and depression, experience doubting themselves, and experience withdrawal. .
It was not until I understood that it was the failures, frustrations, frustrations, doubts, and withdrawals that I had experienced that I decided to become the self I am today.
And the most important thing is that in this process, you are brave and confident. Even if you struggle, you always listen to your heart and never give up.
Just like, Dahai chose Moana to complete her mission, but Moana gave up. In the end, it was necessary for Moana to take the initiative to choose so that she could truly fulfill her mission and responsibilities.
But someone will definitely ask, how can you hear your heart, choose actively, and not give up.
"The person who loves you changes you, and knowledge leads you."
Finally, the sea gave Moana an open space to pick up shells, and Moana placed the shells on the hill that each generation of chiefs had built with stones.
Moana has achieved self-recognition as an individual, and a tribe with ancestors as a navigator has also achieved self-recognition.
//The chicken //
There is a great setting in this movie that is the funny chicken from beginning to end, black and black.
It is dull and always repeats one thing, such as struggling against a stone;
it has no sense of direction, and it often steps on the air. Others adjust its direction, and it can also change its direction at any time;
it obeys and gives it food, still at first Repeatedly strenuously at its own things, pressing its head on the food, it does not refuse, and will eat.
But it was such a chicken that Tefiti's heart almost sank into the sea, and it saved the scene with its mouth.
It is such a chicken, and Moana Maui, lived to the end.
When Moana realized who she was, she said to Hehe, she said, you don't know where this is, because you are a chicken.
Do you think that perhaps in the eyes of the existence of the higher world, such as the possible existence of God or God, we humans are almost like this kind of chicken. Repeat some inexplicable mistakes without knowing it, but still have the right to live to the end.
/ / Maui's tattoos / /
Maui's tattoos are like an external barrage. On the one hand, they carry the role of explaining Maui's life history, and on the other hand, they can express Maui's inner world, and let me even more. What I feel is that those story-like totems have a better symbolic effect.
Each of us actually has this kind of tattoo on our body. It’s just that others can’t see it. We will also put the wonderful experience that we consider proud to be prominent, and we will also put the sad memory that we don’t want to think of in the depths. It's like Maui drove them behind.
When we meet a moana or Maui in our lives, if we try to find these totems hidden in the body, maybe people’s hearts will be closer. You can’t understand what they did. The demon behavior that he endured may be just because he “forgot who he was” or “lost himself”, and if we know that we are the same, we will finally understand the evil card like moana, and reach a reconciliation with ourselves and others. .
Since Frozen, the princesses in Disney World have become different from the past. They are no longer so perfect, have their own difficulties, have lost themselves, and even released their less princess side, but they are also the same. His bravery, self-confidence, do not give up, and finally usher in transformation and growth.
If there are so many and so good values that an animation can carry, then animation will always be needed by this real world.
ps.
Watching "Round Table School" yesterday, Mr. Chen Danqing said that many young people in modern society are faced with the situation that the Internet presents a variety of lifestyles for the world and provides a variety of possible choices, but they can really choose from them. There are very few people and circumstances, and it is usually "nothing for me." After watching this movie, I can't help but feel even more emotional.
At the beginning of the movie, the sea gave way to the childhood Moana, opened a way for Eka at the climax, and then gave Moana a way to pick up shells at the end. It echoes well. At the beginning, the interior of the ocean that I saw from the perspective of childhood moana was like in an aquarium, it was so beautiful, 嘤嘤嘤girly heart.
I saw your name yesterday and it looked good, but I didn't cry. Today, I almost cried for the whole process of watching Ocean Pocahontas.
Probably it's the age when you are more interested in asking questions and understanding yourself, so-
get to know and find yourself, and find your own shell as soon as possible.
