blue, the English dictionary's first interpretation of it is "blue. Melancholy".
This is a story about a single man and a boy waiting to be received. Obviously, both of them have the saddest past, but the scenes in the whole film are clean and pure, and all the plots are joyful and harmonious.
——A man's bereavement of his wife and a boy's abandonment are all fleeting, and given the shots, those who are stingy can no longer be stingy.
The final concluding remarks say:
"All children come to this world with a mission. They are like people from another planet to observe and learn from the earth..."

Yes, this look Is it really a warm ethical film?

Don't forget that its script comes from a short story that won both the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award. The author of this story is David Gerrold, a master figure who is very knowledgeable in the field of science fiction. "Interstellar Travel").
——It will inevitably be labeled "science fiction".

Just like the easy adjustment elements in campus comics, sci-fi is of course a serious theoretical pile, but it can't be ruled out as the shrimp skin of burning wax gourd, right?
Just a little bit, but not just a little bit.
Dennis said that the stadium was hit by a home run. You can know the color of candy by tasting it. This is no better than the sun, umbrella, sunglasses, or autism, which is summed up as the sequelae of childhood shadows.
This is the setting that really hints at Dennis' identity.

I believe he is a child from Mars.
There are not no other hints in the film, the most obvious being -
when David and his sister quarreled on Christmas, the sister's sentence "Your weirdness and this child are not at the same level!"

Why should we go deep, Dennis is Mars? The child who came, or the child who was abandoned?
Do the two conflict?
— No.
Surely he could have come from Mars, and he could have been abandoned at the same time.
Is not it?
And no one will take him back.

And what he said
was true.

But the world doesn't care about the truth, all we care about is the warmth of each other.
On Christmas night, after arguing with his family, when David stood in the yard full of colorful lights, his deep sense of powerlessness radiated. Little Dennis looked at his back and stretched out his hand timidly. , trying to hold his right hand.
But the melancholy man didn't notice it and hid his hand in his trouser pocket.
The sadness brought about by this momentary loss is truly beyond words.

After that, the golden retriever Mao Mao, who had accompanied David for more than ten years and witnessed his past with his untimely wife, passed away. The man covered his face, and tears kept flowing from his fingers...
At this time, it was Xiao Xiao. Dennis came close to him and hugged his arm - the feeling of being hugged by a child's soft body must be enough to melt the cold inside?
The father and son were wrapped in fabric and looked at the stars from the car window. That night, they truly walked into each other's hearts.
Depend on each other.

So from the corner of his mouth, he couldn't help but evoke a smile.
Through melancholy and sadness, loneliness and confusion, anxiety and hesitation, we look forward to, we meet, and we promise each other.
We have experienced friction in getting along with each other, we have experienced helplessness, we have experienced the departure of old friends, we have experienced eternal loss of love, and we have experienced not being able to ask for anything.
We all have answers in our hearts that we thought we would never get, but at some point someone will convince us. We all have wounds in our hearts that never heal, but at the same time we find true love again.
Whether it's people on Earth, people from Mars, people from Venus, we have countless puzzles that we can't answer, and things we don't want to look back on, but we will have each other.

There will always be a warm chest, or a pair of dependent little hands, that will keep you from being melancholy.

So in the end, David's Mars wish came true, and Dennis's got what he wanted forever.
The little Martians and Earth Dad, as well as their goddess Huimei, live happily together.

ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever...forever.
