Watched Miss Bird twice in two weekends in a row. To be honest, I didn't really like this movie at all. Often, movies about growing up are either too personal, making people feel far away from their own lives, or simple-minded and don't capture the essence of a teenager's mental state. Moreover, as a 16- or 17-year-old teenager, he has endured enough comparisons among peers in his daily life. When choosing movies, he generally avoids this subject matter, and replaces himself with content that is a little bit out of reality. . But in fact, this theme of the film still has a great attraction to me. The actions of the characters in the films often serve as a direct model for my choice of my actions. Miss Bird can be said to be the leader in this type of film, giving people a bright feeling. Whether it's giving a psychological identity or really understanding the teen's heart, it does a great job.
Miss Bird can be said to be a very ordinary person. Although she has a lot of ideas and personality, she has a special family relative to her classmates, and she is also very active, and has experienced something that we have not experienced. But in essence, these actions are the externalization of her inner activities. And these inner activities, needless to say, any ordinary teenager will feel very familiar and intimate. Contradictions that desire to escape but are incapable of letting go, eagerness to secure one's place among peers, blindness to stray from reality and one's fantasies at the beginning of a relationship, and inability to deal with friendships and other social relationships. Adults often quickly forget their own feelings during this period after the remodeling of adolescence, and have difficulty understanding their children at this stage. In fact, this is not difficult to understand. After all, feelings are the easiest to forget, especially those scattered, unreasonable, and socially incompatible thoughts. Being on the edge of this period, I rarely feel that powerlessness, but I still remember the feelings I felt a few years ago. Adolescence can be said to be a time when teenagers rediscover themselves and the world. The little physical changes are nothing compared to the drastic changes that take place in the mind. In the process of redefining yourself and trying to find a proper place for yourself in society, the brain is like forcing you to think, you have to grab whatever you can see or it will be thought. The vortex swept away. It is really hard to judge which one is more intense between the fluctuation of thinking and the feeling of external stimulation, although external stimulation is given more attention in society because it is intuitive, easy to empathize with, and is not restricted by age.
One episode in Miss Bird stood out to me. Kyle and Miss Bird are arguing. Kyle once again moved out of his "you know how many people are suffering in Iraq" theory, and this time Miss Bird called a pause. She said, you know, in life, we also have a lot of things to worry about and worry about. Yes, comparisons can indeed give people extra joy or distress. We think we are happier or unhappy, but can true happiness be measured by outside standards? Only you know how you feel, and this applies not only to teens, but to all adults. Miss Bird may sound childish and selfish, but she knows how to pay attention to her own feelings. And Kyle seems to have everything, but he chooses to treat everything with indifference, decide the future according to the wishes of his dying father, and handle his life casually. Miss Bird was more alive than Kyle.
Also in my senior year of high school, I found a lot of resonance in Miss Bird. Miss Bird told her mother that she needed to weather the storm. I often have this thought too. In the sixteen years of life, except for the ideological storm of adolescence, everything in life was smooth. And such storms may soon come with the beginning of the university. University has always been a distant and vague concept in my mind. It seems that from childhood to adulthood, society has instilled in us a point of view: the college entrance examination is the end of life's struggle. Last vacation, I attended a university summer school for a week. In an unfamiliar environment, a person often has many ideas. I suddenly realized that the university is a bright, open new world behind a long dark tunnel. Not only do I have to leave everything I know, but I have to decide my own direction. It was fresh, but also terrifyingly withdrawn. It's funny to think that before that, I piled up almost everything I wanted to do until the holiday after the college entrance examination. This naive, subconscious thinking is precisely the embodiment of my dependence on my life today. And the so-called college life this week is meant to wake me up and urge me to get ready. Miss Bird was clearly not ready. She gets drunk at a freshman party, gets carried to the hospital, and wakes up to really realize how dependent she is on her previous life. This kind of experience may be the wind and rain she wants.
Miss Bird didn't like the name her parents gave her, so she named herself Lady Bird. After leaving her hometown, she introduced herself as Christine for the first time. In this dull moment, our world has ushered in another adult.
