dream early

I watched it at night, and it felt like I was in a dream ahead of time.
The paintings of the little girl Helena in the film are very special. One night after her mother fell ill, she entered the world in her paintings. Everything inside is amazing: books that fly back to the library by themselves, cats with human faces, and more. What I think is the most interesting is the strange animal with the head of a pigeon and the body of the tourist ape Tarzan. It's funny, the pointy beak of a pigeon will grow crooked when it collides, or it will simply fall off, haha.
The music box that can sing at the Black Queen's place sings very beautiful, psychedelic steps, it seems to be called "close to you".
The film is also very fantastic, but what I thought of: it is a world that is completely reversed with reality in the mirror, and it is not the same thing at all.

    The computer effect is simply fantastic. . . . Music has something to say

    In addition to the storyline, the visual sense constructed by fantasy and ultra-alternative imagination is surprisingly similar to the nightmare dreams of night and night, emptiness, weird, dark and eerie and unbelievable, resonance that cannot be described.
