In fact, we all have "Ophelia" in our childhood

This movie was shown to us by the art teacher when I was in high school. In fact, I didn't have any thoughts when I saw it. I just thought it was pretty good. At least I stared at the screen from start to finish. I didn't get distracted or sleepy. But by chance, I watched it again when I went to college. I remember watching it at night. After watching it for a long time, I couldn't fall asleep. I kept wondering whether Pan Shen had imagined it by Ophelia or existed? She has a strong sense of substitution and feels she is the missing princess, but the interweaving of movie fantasy and reality makes me feel that Pan Shen is not so real. If I think about it, whoever didn’t have fantasies when he was a child would also fantasize about being a woman. Princess, wait. The death of Ophelia at the end of this film made me sad, but Pan Shen appeared but this last glimmer of hope was also an illusion, because the dead tree she had crawled into was lifeless.
