LION, this old movie, true story. The film is roughly divided into an Indian part and an Australian part. In the Indian part, the director's narration is remarkable and catches people's hearts. In Australia, the gap is too large.
Dev Patel Dev Patel is my favorite actor, especially his "Foreign Hotel". In the film he plays the adult Saroo. And the childhood Saroo played by Sunny Pawar from the slums of Mumbai is even more brilliant. It's not Dave's problem, it's because the plot in India is too tense.
I am very impressed with the cinematography of the film, from the long shot to the close-up to the lighting and everything, it is precise. I also admire Nicole Kidman's acting skills. As long as she appears, it's all acting skills.
It took 25 years for Saroo to realize that he had misremembered the name of his hometown and his own name. His name is not Saroo, his name is Sheru, which means lion.
Out of the movie, there are two sighs: ① Sue and John who adopted Saroo are not infertile. But because Sue believes that having a child by herself does not necessarily make the world a better place. And if you adopt a child like Saroo, you can make the world a better place. ②Saroo was lost when he was 5 years old and separated from his mother and brother since childhood. This is a misfortune in life. However, it was also a blessing in disguise.
Online, there are many pictures of the real Saroo along with his adoptive parents and real mother, as well as his older brother. Seeing it, I was deeply moved.
In addition, in the Australian part, the setting of the role of Saroo's girlfriend seems redundant.
