In the foggy night, the dazzling green water of Paris is rippling with microwaves. In this hazy city, it seems that sunlight will never penetrate...
The protagonist of the movie is like countless people drifting on this green water. A big man with a mind like a child, dedicated to looking for the stolen waiter brother, although danger often blocked his way, even though he didn't know the whereabouts of the waiter boy, he kept going on firmly, because there were some. The feeling of a younger brother is to make people move forward and move forward... The spirit of moving forward makes him seem to be unable to see the dark road in front of him, and it also makes me moved by this persistent and indelible family affection.
Meiya, a strong and sophisticated girl, has been wandering in this ruthless world since she was a child, and she has long regarded everything very lightly and lightly. The sentence "born in a stinky sewer, died in a dirty dock" can represent her when she faced a cruel death. , beyond the calmness of ordinary people, how many people in the world can maintain such a natural attitude towards the cycle of life and death? Thinking about his so-called experience, compared with Meiya, it is like a feather that can be ignored.
The scientist on the tower, without dreams or illusions, invented the "dream machine", stealing children under the age of five from all over the world, stealing their innocent dreams, this seemingly outrageous behavior, but this scientist is desperate only hope. From this point of view, I can tell others about my absurd dreams, which is a very happy thing. I can't imagine how much my life would change if the only way to fall into another "self" was gone. , will it fall to the point of despair as any scientist?
In addition to these protagonists who moved me and pondered, another attractive highlight of this movie is the perfect logic one after another, which interprets wisdom so real, Wonderful. Looking back on life, it seems that everything is part of a miracle, an essential part of the "butterfly effect".
After the filming, I suddenly want to go to sleep and go to dream...

The City of Lost Children quotes

  • le scaphandrier: The Children!

    Miette: What about them? What do you know?

    le scaphandrier: He takes them. The Devil takes them away. In his boat... he takes them to Hell.

    Miette: What Hell?

    le scaphandrier: The tattooed man: he knows where. The map... the map of the minefield is tattooed on his body.

  • L'oncle Irvin: [after Krank's latest failiure] Who stole the child's dreams? Krank, in his evil schemes. But the happy tale had a sting in it's tail. The genius has a fit of pique, hear the genius shriek, the 'genius' is up a creek.
