children are lonely

I liked that part. The little girl was pushed aside after being called by her father "let me work!" Busy parents don't want to care about the little ones, so the little girl starts to amuse herself by walking around the big house, hanging out, stepping on the rug, counting the windows, hanging on the door and shaking, slapping the little bugs, and so on and so forth. It was as if he saw a trace of his own childhood.

Children are lonely.

In addition, I am more puzzled that the director did not show any signs of teaching the slightly indifferent parents until the end of the story. After a series of tossing, the little girl became brave and worked hard, rescued her parents from the devil's clutches, and reunited her family. After all, parents should be busy or busy, and occasionally take time out to accompany their children or rest. It hasn't changed much from before, but the director said, this is the reality. Reality is imperfect and impossible.

I remember there is a saying that the story direction of making a good movie is to make the audience have expectations (resonance), but it cannot be exactly the same as the audience's expectations (conventional). I think this story is a good example.

I was immersed in the loneliness of children and the gentle world of ghost mothers in front of me. Although I knew that no pie would fall from the sky, and that I would definitely pay the price and setbacks later, I still had the idea to say: If it is such a hell, I would rather die in It's better over there than this indifference.

But seeing the price to be paid in the later stage, the director's black humor, made me anxious and angry with Caroline's anxious anger, sweat, it seems that I am such a little girl who is easily confused.

After watching the ghost mother and watching The Adventures of Flying House, I personally feel that Flying House contains many metaphorical meanings of life, and I will talk about it later when I have time. The ghost mother is relatively simple and persistent. Good people are good people, and bad people are bad people. It made me feel a little regretful of disapproval. Just be a simple bad guy.

But I still like ghost mothers very much. The director used 3D techniques to deliberately imitate the animation of stop motion puppets, which surprised me. Haha, gravity recommends.

  • Other Father: [robotic] All will be swell, soon as Mother's refreshed. Her strength is our strength...

    [one of the robotic hands closes his mouth forcefully]

    Other Father: Mustn't... talk when Mother's not here.

    Coraline Jones: If you won't even talk to me, I'm gonna find the other Wybie. He'll help me.

    Other Father: He pulled a loooong face... and Mother didn't like it.

  • Coraline Jones: [on the "Other" Mother] Why does she want me?

    Cat: She wants something to love, I think. Something that isn't her. Or, maybe she'd just love something to eat.

    Coraline Jones: Eat? That's ridiculous, mothers don't eat... daughters.

    Cat: I don't know. How do you taste?
