There's a reason why I picked Chicken Run this night. In 2000, I bought the first box of "Crazy English", which introduced the film that was just released at that time. Although I have heard the clips in it many times, I have never watched this film. Maybe subconsciously I'm waiting for a suitable opportunity.
Looking back now, I have forgotten too many things in the past eight years. But I still remember Rocky and Ginger talking on the roof. Ginger likes it cautiously, and Rocky is willing to admit it. Just like the delicate and sensitive emotions that I gradually lost from the summer of 2000.
There is no farm. There was a bitter smile at the corners of his mouth when the repeated lines sounded again. I am like those hens who are gradually going numb, unable to see the outside world, unable to imagine how I can live after losing the not-so-good life I have now. Maybe I also need someone to wake up my sleeping soul with a loud voice.
For a long time, how much I wanted to fly out of the wire cage that I surrounded myself, but I was so, so afraid of the possible injury after escaping. And tonight Ginger gave me the courage to fly for freedom, and Rocky taught me how to live by letting go of worry.
Apart from these personal emotions, I also like the soundtrack and the interaction of British and American cultures.
I am very fortunate to have watched this film at the moment of farewell, and remembered those initial good things.
