fairy tales up close

The subtitles are poorly done and a bit strenuous to read. The theme and style of "Big Fish" are very similar, and the same is to treat life with an optimistic attitude and rich imagination, creating a fairy tale-like poetic atmosphere.

Johnny Depp, this time turned into a suave English gentleman, has encountered a bottleneck in the creation of the drama, but found creative inspiration in the lives of four children who have lost their father. Children love games, because they are more willing to fantasize, so their world is much richer and more exciting than the world of adults. The movie tries to tell us that we may be hurt and disappointed again and again in reality, but as long as we keep a young mentality and flying dreams, we can regain the joy of our hearts and find our own beautiful sky.

As the protagonist of Barry's final play, the real-life Peter seems more difficult to communicate and lacks imagination compared to the other three children. Perhaps it is because of such a character as Peter that Barry made him the protagonist, which made him deeply touched in the process of watching and found the wings of his fantasy. This is also the reaction of literary and artistic works to people, just like the sick Sylvia finally wandered in the world of elves and saw the beautiful island in the dream, and everyone was moved by the power that penetrated into the soul. The heavy rain that suddenly fell in the theater, the blue grass and blue sky appeared when the door was opened, and the children jumping out of the window one after another jumping out of the window. This kind of editing and switching between reality and dream seems to be whimsical, but the connection is natural and smooth. Makes people feel the atmosphere of fairy tales.

As for the process of spiritual communication between Barry and the Sylvia family, that kind of warmth and warmth has come to my heart more than once. For people, mutual understanding and love are so precious. However, it may be due to the subtitles. The process of watching is a bit rushed, so the plot makes me feel that the development is too fast, and the expressions of various emotions are also very subtle. Although I can vaguely feel the elegant charm, the film is about to express The kind of moving that can only flow slowly like a spring, leaving a shallow trace in the bottom of my heart.

    The reality is not the same as the external environment. The reality is the sum of the external environment and the needs of everyone. Always staring at the external environment instead of the needs of people themselves will ultimately only cause misfortune for themselves and others.

    But the reality is still so cruel that you have nowhere to run. A lot of stories in fairy tales are deceptive.
