One sentence after watching: In a year like 2020, this film came too late!

The core of all comedies is actually tragedy, and more and more films with realistic and social themes are put on the screen. The expressions of great directors are actually a reflection of their dissatisfaction with reality, but they rarely give solutions; even in the film It was solved in the middle and Happy Ending, but the solution was either a seance of the machine, or it was mostly "not related to me". The audience who returned to reality did not believe that such a coincidence or this luck could come to them. In 2020, we have also experienced too much hardship. Even if there are no big twists and turns such as illness and unemployment, we are also a member of the global community of shared destiny that has witnessed the suffering of our compatriots, restricted isolation, and economic downturn, and plans to start a business, travel, etc. There is no progress. This year seems to be going by without doing anything, and I feel very sad. And "Soul" is a spiritual healing for all audiences. We, who have been mourning for a year, desperately need this kind of comfort, "It's already December 25th, and there are five days left for this year to pass. Why did you come here!"

The male protagonist who has done nothing in his life, his soul has risen to "heaven", but he desperately wants to return to his life; in "heaven", he can experience everything and even talk to great people, but he cannot fill a complete soul. Life, only when the soul and the body are integrated into one, can it be considered to be alive, and it can be considered to have life. Pixar and Disney will work together to teach us all the older children who still watch animated films in 100 minutes - Xiang Sheng, in an imaginative and creative way, to show us the preciousness and irreplaceability of life, and to praise the beauty of life, 2020 Nian is like a subway that is surrounded by gray and depressing people in the film. If you love life and cherish every day you live, it will be a vivid color!

PS. A useless little knowledge every day: The key props in the film are maple wing fruits. Does it look like this in reality?

Soul quotes

  • Joe: You ready?

    22: Huh?

    Joe: To come live.

    22: ...I'm scared, Joe. I'm not good enough. And anyway, I... I never got my spark.

    Joe: Yes, you did. Your spark isn't your purpose. That last box fills in when you're ready to come live. And the thing is, you're pretty great at jazzing.

  • 22: [in Joe's body] Like my mentor George Orwell used to say, State sponsored education is like the rattling of a stick inside a swill bucket.
