Probably there is. And these people are called: losers.
But the word "Angel" popped into my head at the last moment of watching "The Blue Mascot" because he disappeared the moment the reunited family embraced. Suddenly, the previously boring road stood helplessly, the harsh screams of the children became less real, and everything returned to a dream. It seems that there are some signs of warmth in the previously pale.
This self-directed and self-acted big boy looks like a bean, with a big nose, thick eyebrows, and big round eyes. Every day he looks like he is in a trance and listless. However, under the frail appearance, there is such a little sense of security that is unpredictable.
He has a little obsessive-compulsive hobby, using plastic bags to seal everything that looks fragile: CDs, dollar bills, etc. . It seems like an uncontrollable desire to protect.
However, no one took his good intentions, and it was difficult to tell whether he was causing trouble for others or offering help.
When the Iraq war broke out, there was finally a family of three who needed his help: a lonely sister-in-law and two terrified children after the elder brother went to the battlefield. In a year and a half, this family that lacks the support of father's love has become a little hysterical and impetuous.
Lucky Blue (unfortunately, I don't remember his name like everyone else in the movie =.=), came to fill the void. But his sister-in-law treated him lukewarm, and the children fought him even more, because he was just a substitute, and it was impossible to replace the person they needed.
His sister-in-law found him a job selling office buildings as a mascot for a real estate company that was about to go out of business. Standing on the edge of a lonely highway every day, handing out flyers. However, it seems that he did not hand out a few flyers from beginning to end, but just dutifully stood on the road to complete the mission of a mascot.
From the first day of his work, people have had different interests in this blue bark thing. They don't know what kind of person it is, but they can feel the helplessness and loneliness of this thing just like them. . Gradually, people fell in love with this mascot that appeared in their field of vision every day. Even the kids who hated him in the past took long-lost joy from this blue fluffy mascot.
Looking back, what did this blue mascot do from start to finish? He just stood there, seemingly in vain completing the mission that others gave him, whether it was the image of a mascot or the guardian of a family. Although no one has affirmed what he has done (in fact, he is often ignored and contemptuous), he silently insists. Maybe it's natural stupidity, maybe it's trying to get things done, no one knows.
However, in the end, accompanied by the mascot, people waited until the haze of the war dissipated, and that moment was also the moment when he disappeared. As I said before, even if people don't remember the name of this mascot, but in the surprised and lost eyes of the child when he lost him, people seem to think of the birthday party he spent with the children, He fought the boss for the reunion of his brother and sister-in-law, and his blue figure standing silly on the boring road seemed to be a rare sight on that road.
I think this is probably the role of angels. They are not God who can easily change people's lives, and can only silently rely on their own strength to protect those who he cares about. No matter whether they succeed or not, they just never give up. If I had to compare such a Blue Angel with superheroes, I think I prefer the former. Because, unlike superheroes who are out of reach, Blue Angel may be lurking somewhere in our lives at this time.
