I was very tired at night, so I watched the movie "The Kite Runner" in bed. After watching it, I liked it very much, so I decided to get up and write a blog.

The book "The Kite Runner" has been reading recently, but I only read 1/4 of it, so I couldn't help watching the relatively short movie first. The original book "The Kite Runner" was written by Khaled Hosseini (Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul in 1965, and fled to the United States with his father.) The film is directed by American director Marc Forster and involves In many respects, the history and current situation of Afghanistan, the friendship between the protagonist and the little servant, and the later redemption of his son, show us the living conditions of the Afghans in an intertwined and three-dimensional manner.

After buying the "The Kite Runner" movie disc, a friend said that the movie was not as good as the book, so she forfeited the disc, but for me who didn't read the book, the movie still moved me a lot, and I admit that it might be something to watch with me. The previous part of the book is related to it. Stepping back, whether the success of the film or the book is inseparable from this beautiful and moving story.

After watching the movie, I kept thinking about what moved me. I think it was the beauty of the protagonist’s childhood friendship and the beauty of Afghanistan, and the loyalty of the servant Hassan, and even his son inherited his father’s loyalty.

Kite chasing, this dynamic act itself, will make people have infinite reverie, two children in the bright sunshine, dancing colorful kites in their hands, running on the beautiful land of Afghanistan, crossing the lively streets with ethnic characteristics Alley, and the cooperation of enthusiastic Afghan folk music, the beauty of which is already a kind of enjoyment just thinking about it, this feeling is well grasped by the film director. The regrets in the movie, I think in the atonement part of the protagonist Amir, the protagonist did not explain enough about Amir's feelings before, so that the later part of the atonement seems weak, if you have read the book, you can fully understand it, if you haven't read the book. People will find it a little awkward.

A film describing Afghans is naturally indispensable to the description of this country with Taliban and lanterns, and the fate of this country is also naturally linked to the fate of the protagonist. The two complement each other in the film. The performance is very tense, which is another wonderful part of the film.

In fact, "The Kite Runner" is neither a book nor a movie. It reflects a cruel fact with a beautiful story, the profound damage caused by the war, there are countless such topics, but it makes me feel It's not easy that a film or book about this unfortunate nation can go viral and be known and noticed by the world. That's great in itself. The Afghans created this opportunity and we got this opportunity. .

    Although it is a bit inferior to the original work, it restores a lot of brain-filling scenes. A small actor who likes to play Hassan and an old actor who likes to play his father. For you, thousands of times!

The Kite Runner quotes

  • Baba: [regarding the mullahs, who teach that drinking alcohol is a sin] I piss on the beards of all those self-righteous monkeys.

  • Amir: [explaining Sohrab's presence] You see, General Sahib, my father slept with his servant's wife, and she bore him a son named Hassan. Hassan is dead now. That boy sleeping in the other room is Hassan's son. He's my nephew. That's what you tell people when they ask. And one more thing, General Sahib: you will never again refer to him as "a Hazara boy" in my presence. He has a name, and it's Sohrab.
