In Angelina Jolie's new film "The Change of the Son", it tells us a more creepy story. Single mother Kristin Collins and her son Walter live in Los Angeles. They have a modest house. Kristin is the owner of a telephone company with countless female operators. When Christine came home late from work one day, she found that her son hadn't come home. After a five-month search, she was told her son had been found in Illinois. She was taken to the platform to meet the child, but from the first moment the child appeared, she knew it was not her son. The police, led by Officer Jay Jones, simply ignored it. Although Walter's classmates, dentists, and teachers all insisted that it was not him, the child present insisted that he was Walter, which also touched Christine and couldn't help being distracted. Arbitrary police believe Kristen is delusional and put her in a mental hospital. On the other hand, a pastor who has been preaching on the radio, Gustave Briglab, believes that this is the result of the corruption of the Los Angeles Police Department, and firmly sided with Christine. The pastor insisted on using Christine's example to attack the corruption of the authorities. What makes the plot even more climax is the testimony of a boy who tells the police that a terrifying and insane man has repeatedly forced him to kidnap and kill a number of boys, including Walter. Later, using cross-cutting shots, the director stitches together two important events, the homicide trial and the municipal hearing, to bring the story to the end.
It's a little surprising that Angelina Jolie is really starting to transform. She is no longer obsessed with the illusion of "the sexiest woman in the world", and has transformed from a violent girl who is sexy and cool in her bones to a mother who looks weak but strong as iron. It seems that she doesn't need to worry about the distress of her role transition, after all, real life has accumulated a lot of experience for her. She has children, more than one. Therefore, the role of "mother" is not difficult for her. What is difficult is how to shape the mother's state of being out of panic and panic after the child is lost, and inject her own strength and kindness into this not-so-beautiful world. Elements. After reading it, I sighed that Angelina Jolie has really become very charming and sexy. It turns out that the best sexy of a woman is being strong, kind, and persistent.
Whether or not Walter finally returned to Christine Collins' arms is no longer important. What is important is: 1. The police department can no longer be so dereliction of duty in the future that it has to wait until 24 hours after the child's disappearance before filing an investigation; 2. No longer Anyone who opposes is forcibly taken into a mental hospital to be persecuted at will. Therefore, we can imagine with good wishes that Walter returned to Christine Collins' arms and lived a good life.
Movies can give us tortuous stories, bizarre events, good expectations for punishing evil and rewarding good, and a happy and fulfilling life outcome, but we have to tell ourselves clearly that those only exist in the past, or on that screen, and that’s all. That's it. We can't naively avoid those ugly and cruel occurrences, which are part of the world. What we can't tolerate is the lack of malfeasance and kindness, which is fatal.
Look at those children begging along the street in real life, those children standing in the sun and rain on the overpass, those deformed children, who can really be so naive and imagine that the world is so beautiful? Yes, the world is beautiful, but it only exists in movies, texts and the future, nothing to do with reality. I can't help being a little too pessimistic, but I'm wary of those ugly phenomena in reality, and I'm careful not to fall into this trap of being invincible. Because they did exist, they existed in the past, they exist now, and they cannot be completely avoided in the future.
Think about it, what should we do if our child goes missing? In addition to all the rescue measures of Zhongji, if the child still can't return to our arms, how many people can still live in this world spiritually? If the child is just being given away, that might still be the best fantasy. What terrifies us is that those tragic results are unfortunately befalling us, day after day we are haunted by nightmares, haunted by that innocent voice, and fettered by the once sweet and innocent smile, and besides these, It is a pair of evil eyes and a malevolent laughter that surround us.
So, please be as vigilant as possible so that those terrible consequences don't happen.
