The little girl Rose, indulging in the world of fairy tales, Alice, Queen Hilda, Jacqueline Island... all she yearns for.
However, the reality is cruel. Her parents turned out to be drug addicts. The grumpy mom always eats chocolate, and the dad rock-hippie often reads fairy tales to his daughter. She helped her moody mother beat her legs, helped her father tie a tourniquet and clean up the syringe. In the decadence that adults can't bear, she still maintains the purity of her heart.
One day, my mother died of a drug overdose, and my father wanted to set the body on fire, but Rose said, "That's not good, it will burn others." So, my father agreed. Then, they decided to go to the depths of the grassland to find grandma.
There, it is very beautiful, the blue sky is transparent, the golden grassland is boundless, and the quiet and quiet river water. There, it sucks, grandma's been dead for years, wake up one night and dad's dead too. However, Rose did not panic in the slightest - this kind of thing probably does not belong to children. She, with her little friends - four Barbie heads, "directs" one magical drama after another.
A beekeeper is a witch; a retarded man is a prince; a rabbit hole is a fairyland in an illusion; a dilapidated plastic shack is a submarine; a deformed bicycle wheel is a shark; a railroad track across the grassland is an endless coastline.
Rose lives happily, except for being a little hungry. Fortunately, the "witch" turned her father into a mummified corpse, and brought her back to her own home for dinner. In this way, she can continue to sleep with her father who is no longer smelly, and can continue to eat and play and sleep when tired.
However, the real situation is that the beekeeper once fell in love with Rose's father, but he chose to leave; after the death of her mother, she couldn't face the reality, she made it into a mummified corpse, hid it in the bedroom, expecting, One day, she will be resurrected; life is extremely difficult, and she has to take care of her mentally retarded brother, she even trades her body for food.
The tragic situation made the "witch" strange and fierce, and finally broke out after Rose discovered the "secret". She said angrily, "I'm going to starve you to death!"
Rose escaped and returned to her father. It was late at night, and the world seemed to be plunged into bottomless darkness.
Suddenly, she heard a loud noise outside the window and ran out, the firelight lit up a corner of the sky. It turned out that the "Prince" did what he promised - to blow up the monster before he died. It's just that the name of the monster is called the train, the shark in the ocean of Rose.
She walked dazedly outside the derailed carriage. A woman who survived the crash greeted, believing she was the child of the slain passenger. Rose said, "I'm hungry." The woman took out the orange, put her arm around her shoulder and said, "Come with me, go where I'm going, okay? Let's take care of each other." In the
distance, the "Witch" shouted Brother's name came. Fear flashed in Rose's eyes, and she pressed closer to the woman...
Rose's sea, the tide is rising, and now, she has completed her "Wonderland" journey and is about to return to "Reality".
Director Gilliam is a "genius". "The Brothers Grimm" was made like a horror movie; this movie called "New Alice in Wonderland" is like a 21st century version of "Les Miserables". However, he used the innocent eyes of a little girl, and all the ugliness in the adult vision were resolved into beauty.
The girl's interpreter, Jodelle Ferland, is excellent, with a large monologue and a naive and changeable look, which makes it doubtful that she has made the film as a roaming Alice's wonderland. By the way, she also acted in "Silent Hill", which was also "amazing".
However, such a film is destined to be criticized, and it belongs to the category of benevolent people who see benevolence and the wise see wisdom. How it will fare at the box office is hard to say. It is estimated that in China, it is impossible to see theatrical screenings.
