Big fish and Honey boy has the feeling that I have watched two films about father characters in the past two days. The former is a warm and dreamy story, while the latter is a sharp sadistic story. But what they have in common is that they show all aspects of the father's role. There is a well-known saying, "Every parent is also a parent for the first time." There is no lesson in this world that can teach us to grow up, and there is no lesson that teaches our parents how to be a qualified parent.
The father in Big Fish works outside for a long time, and doesn't have much time to accompany and witness the growth of his children, but he weaves the stories of his hard work outside into a touching fairy tale, or not all true, but not false, inside. Hidden is the father's love for his child. I know that reality is cruel, but in my story, you can choose to believe that the future will be beautiful, or you can choose to dream to pursue a dream, even if it may not be real, even if it may not come true, but you Have the ability to imagine and the determination to pursue your dreams. The father in the baby boy was a lot more ruthless. He reminded me of my own father, who never knew what a good education was. Under the circumstances, he can only play the role of a father bravely, which is undoubtedly unqualified. At the same time, what he has done has left a deep shadow in the child's mind. His cowardice and incompetence allowed the child to take on the responsibilities and thinking that should not be assumed at his age. Every Family is Dysfunctional in a Certain Way. Boys never grow up, they just pretend to be dads. If it were me, I would leave this incompetent father, I can't seem to be as brave as the boy in the play to accompany a father who is alcoholic, drug-drinking and violent. I always feel that the children in bigfish are happier than those in honey boy, because his father weaves wonderful dreams for him, but he desperately runs away to break through all of this, and wants to pursue the so-called truth, but in fact Ordinary truth is just that.
