"This film describes the summer vacation aspirations of some six-year-old children, and the adults who guard their sunny smiles are actually fighting for their lives every day." This introduction actually attracted me at first, but after watching it, I found that it was very different. , however even exceeded my expectations. I've always wondered if there would be anything wrong with having a kid play such a foul-mouthed bad boy. At first I thought the protagonists were a bunch of children and their parents, but in fact the real protagonists are probably just a mother and a daughter. The children in the movie are only six years old. They are represented by Moonee, who spit on other people's cars, swears at others, and even set fire to the house with a stolen lighter. Hate bad boys. At first glance, Moonee broke them because she had a mother Halley who made her become like this. She is full of foul language, tattooed, has no regular job, and can't pay the rent because she owes her rent. (with daughter), then prostitution and stealing (daughter is behind the bathroom curtain). Because of this, the police finally brought Moonee away. To be honest, in real life, no one would think she should continue to be her mom anymore. However, in the movie, she and her daughter play together while shopping, they roll on the ground in the rain together, run far away together to celebrate the birthday of Moonee's last and only friend who can play together, and those who are afraid of their children being caught by them. As far as the bad parents are concerned, she is also the only one who plays with her child like a child and accompanies each other. At this time, she feels that she is the purest one. It was she who ruined her daughter, but who ruined her? And Moonee, who seems to be a bad boy, can be seen everywhere in the movie that she has love. She still has a kind heart, just like her mother, but she doesn't know what is "good" and what is "good" for society. "bad". When the police came to take her away, she too cried and fled. It reminds me of the custody battles of "Girls Prodigy" and "I Am Sam," however they are obviously better people for the moviegoers, who are questioned as unfit for raising children. And this movie, seriously, I don't know if Halley should still be raising Moonee. In real life, no one would think that such a mother should continue to raise her children, but if it was in a movie, and I saw that scene, I really think, I don't know which outcome is better. In the end, the two little girls ran away together. This story has no ending, but this is the only ending.
