This is a movie that I just like the name. It used to be called "Jojo Rabbit", now it is called "Young Jojo's Whimsical World".

The film tells about the world of the little boy Jojo during World War II, there is a good friend-"Hitler", this "Hitler" accompanied Jojo's life and growth. When Jojo discovered that his mother had hidden a Jewish girl at home, his life and thoughts changed dramatically, and his relationship with "Hitler" was no longer the same.

The beginning of the film is the dialogue between Jojo and "Hitler" at home. The picture is warm pale yellow, retro and warm.

As the story progressed, it was realized that the name "Jojo Rabbit" was given to Jojo by the soldiers who looked down on Jojo, because Jojo couldn't bear to kill a little rabbit.

Jojo was frustrated, but "Hitler" told him instead, to be a rabbit, to be a brave and tenacious rabbit.

"Hitler" ran with Jojo, Jojo snatched the grenade from the soldier, but accidentally wounded himself.

Scarlett finally appeared, wearing a red and blue uniform, which was hazy from Jojo's perspective, so elegant and so beautiful.

Since Scarlett's appearance, the pictures of the movie began to look more delicate and charming.

From a few moments of life between Qiaoqiao and his mother, we can see that the mother's education to Qiaoqiao is so correct, but so silent.

Qiao Qiao was too young to accept the crazy output of the "Nazis" when he could not tell right from wrong. In Jojo's world, war, artillery, and muscle are the most powerful.

Mother was not angry, nor eager, she just told Qiaoqiao that love is the most powerful, and I believe Qiaoqiao will understand.

Mom helped Jojo tie the shoelaces and said "Hitler, go ahead", but Jojo fell and it turned out that it was her mother who tied the laces of Jojo's two shoes together.

Here is a node.

On the one hand, Qiaoqiao repeatedly forgot to tie shoelaces. In this way, my mother reminded Qiaoqiao of the importance of tying shoelaces, and taught Qiaoqiao life skills. Mom could not tie her shoes for a lifetime.

On the other hand, Jojo was convinced of Hitler, his mother let him fall, the phrase "Hitler" is called Jojo, and also indicates that the real Hitler will not be able to go on.

After that, Jojo would really fall down because of Hitler.

After Jojo discovered the Jewish girl, he did not tell his mother that he had discovered her secret.

Only one day, a group of people came to the home to make a surprise inspection. Their mother was not at home, and the two got through.

On the street, Qiaoqiao saw that the poster on the wall was about to fall off.

At this time, he found a butterfly.

Qiaoqiao walked with the butterfly and stopped in one place. Joe Joe squatted down to look at the butterfly.

The butterfly flew away, and Jojo stood up.

Turning his head, he saw a pair of shoes.

Shoes, that appeared twice in the movie from Jojo's perspective, mother's shoes.

This time, he appeared in the position where Mom took Jojo to see that time, the position where the mother forced Jojo to look good.

Everything seemed so sudden, but looking at the note in my mother's hand that I accidentally saw last time, and now it was nailed to my mother's pants, everything seemed to have been foreshadowed.

Jojo finally saw the butterfly in her mother's mouth.

Mom asked to tie the shoelaces, and Jojo finally learned.

It's just that the price is too big, too painful, exactly the same as my mother once said.

Mom is gone, Hitler is gone, and the final war has begun.

A few minutes of slow motion, accompanied by soft music, still has a trace of elegance and tranquility, but the shock that it brings to the heart cannot be subdued for a long time.

Children as old as Jojo rushed to the battlefield with guns, so extreme, so crazy, so scary.

They still don't understand anything.

At this time Qiaoqiao, hiding in the wreckage bombed by war, was so weak, so scared, and so helpless.

What he thought was the most powerful thing collapsed.

The "Hitler" in Jojo's imagination is not the real Hitler at all, but just like himself, kind, cute, stupid, and tenacious.

The whole film gives a very light feeling.

The opening is cut from Jojo's house, from the beginning it is not grand, not heavy, and unconventional.

Regarding Qiaoqiao's growth process, whether it was facing his mother's sudden departure, or seeing the commander who rescued him was shot, he did not overstate his emotions.

The ending with the Jewish girl, unexpectedly, was finally comforting.

The magnificent background, subtly cut in.

A heavy story, easy to tell.

It seems casual when you look at it, but afterwards it has a long aftertaste.

Quiet, but full of power.

When a young man established his faith, Qiao Qiao ushered in the collapse of his faith.

How should the thousands of young people in that era look for faith and view the world in the long years to come.

I hope they all dance freely like Jojo.

    Was completely impressed by Taiga Viditi. It's really a movie with laughter and tears! In the new era version of "A Beautiful Life", the truth and cruelty of war are seen in spoof comedy. And the kindness of human nature has always been there, it's the butterfly in the belly of Jojo Rabbit, fly, you are free.

    What cool moms do: joking, pranks, drinking wine, kicking people, teaching children to dance without war, and looking into the tiger’s eyes.
