Tonight, there is no moon

After watching the movie, I believe everyone will remember that scene. A tattered bicycle, carrying ET and Eliot and their dreams, flew staggeringly across the dark blue sky. Behind it is bright and clean. And the bright moonlight. Thinking of the figure of the goddess Lingbo at the end of EVA, it is also a sacred and inviolable scene, and similarly, it is a moon as big as a sesame seed.
I haven't watched too many science fiction movies, but I have read a lot of science fiction novels. I understand how difficult it is for the works of 30 years ago to infect modern people. When Spielberg made this movie, it was not possible to create a complete alien through computer animation, but it was the production of this entity that gave people an irreplaceable sense of reality. Little ET, he is wrinkled, his head is flat, he walks like a little old man, he can't even speak clearly; but the slender fingers, the dull look, the wisdom and sadness in his eyes, no wonder Almost little Eliot and we both like him so much. When he tremblingly points to the sky and mutters home in his mouth; when he touches a little boy’s tears and then touches his face; when he leads the children to fly; even without the gorgeous animation , There are no dazzling stunts, but also enough to make people very excited
-they are not the salvation heroes who are constantly exploding behind their backs and wearing black windbreakers holding beautiful women and walking forward calmly, nor are they equipped with omnipotent flying in the sky and drag racing on the ground. His pretending to be a cool guy is just an exchange between two different kinds of young creatures, and nothing else. In the previous news, it was said that aliens would be found within 25 years, laugh, if there are aliens, the earth may be in chaos. Very few creatures would send people out to sea like the emperor of the Ming Dynasty just to declare the world's mighty power (it seems that I also conjectured the intention of an unknown creature with the worst malice), even if people really come to exchange civilizations, it will be true. Do any adults believe all this? This slow-moving but always unexpected little monster is a dream that only exists in fantasy, an unattainable dream.
In the same science fiction novels about aliens, Ted’s favorite is the story of your life. Of course, three bodies were added the year before last (support domestic: -D). The former discusses the language system of the aliens and the completely different thinking system. Everything is doomed, doomed death, doomed sadness; the three-body is a narrative of a huge conspiracy (pay tribute to Liu). The truth of the package reveals the problem of alienation within civilization. I think of Yangtze River No. 7, which is also about aliens. It’s okay with Mars. It’s also a story with a little boy. It’s also the trivialities and emotions of daily life, but it’s always as if I can’t scratch the place where I need it most. Can you watch science fiction movies in Mandarin and see tears streaming down your cheeks?
Maybe, one day, I will also say to you, hey, I am an alien ~ you will also laugh. Above our heads, there is no moon yet.
