This is the most impressive sentence in "THE KITE RUNNER" (The Kite Runner). After watching the movie version, this sentence was also emphasized. And the phrase "For you, a thousand times over" is the same.
Of course this wasn't entirely written for the movie. The novel was read on the train. I wanted to use it as a pastime before going to bed at night, but I didn't expect to be attracted. In the end, I turned on the bedside lamp and saw all of it at 4 o'clock. It felt like it was too suitable for a movie. Although sensational, although some routines, but not annoying.
Later I saw the movie poster, two. One is a brownish-yellow tone, with two children running with kites, and the other is the backs of two children with their backs draped and holding a colorful kite under the blue sky. won my heart.
After watching the movie, I have no desire to write. Not so bad that I don't want to mention it. It's just like reading a little book again. The kind of little book that reduces the content of the book to a quarter with pictures. Neither creativity nor surprise. Moderate, but also a smart approach.
When I read the novel, I imagined that the scene of the kite-flying competition would need to be exaggerated if it were a movie. Some scenes flashed through my mind. blue sky. Countless huge and gorgeous kites high and low. child. crowd. Mountains looming in the distance. A grayish khaki house.
The movie is not much different from what I imagined, but unfortunately it lacks some spectacular and charm. I originally thought that this scene should have been successfully shot like the Quidditch match in "Harry Potter", so it was half the battle, but unfortunately, it was not enough.
Hassan's choice was too important. It was too difficult to find an Afghan Hazara boy who was suitable for acting and had a harelip. It is understandable to omit the cleft lip in this movie. In fact, this Hazara boy with a flat nose bridge like a Chinese child is really attractive. I like it, but whether it is too serious. And Amir is too handsome and young as an adult. His wife is simply an Afghan version of Zhong Xintong. Idol, idol. It's a bit wretched compared to the younger Amir. = . =
The Afghan landscapes that appeal to me are actually mostly filmed in Xinjiang, China. Sometimes I see Hui people. The parents of the child who played Hassan demanded that the scenes of him being raped not be shown because the Afghans could not tell which was the film and which was the real. Somewhat stunned.
Of course, my comment is too superficial. But it's all in the book. If you want to say it, the movie highlights the logical thinking that America is heaven, which makes people feel a little sick. But this is an American blockbuster, and we have no right to say anything.
If the novel had no politics, if the film had less politics. I would like it more.
That's the real "for you, thousands of times".
