on that boring afternoon

In that boring afternoon, I didn't even have the strength to watch a suspense drama. I just wanted to watch some relaxing and beautiful stories to adjust my mood, so as to perfectly welcome the upcoming Chinese New Year. So I was attracted by this very DISNEY-style poster and returned to the embrace of 2D again.
In fact, in the process of watching the film, it is more isolated from the plot. The one who watched "The Lion King" with his cousins ​​on a hungry stomach on a certain day, the one who talked about "Mulan" with his classmates on the way home, and earlier and earlier, was held in his mother's arms and listened to "Snow White" of the past. Large sections of memories are constantly recalled between those beautiful melodies. In the smooth story, I was like a hypnotized person, and the warmth and beauty in the deepest memories came out again and again.
At the end of the year when the temperature fluctuates, Mayan prophecies and political turmoil, it is like watching such a simple, relaxing, warm and pure story, holding a cup of hot tea and recalling the beauty of the past. A boring afternoon turned into another page of shining memories.
The plot is actually quite simple. When that humble and ordinary she met him as a prince. The ending is also a big reunion that can be guessed with closed eyes. But the little moving, the little sadness, and the little twists and turns in the process made me fascinated. I like the simple crocodile, the persistent firefly, and the young lady. Oh, maybe what I like is not the movie, but the simplicity of the movie. As long as you have a dream, you can achieve it, as long as you recognize your heart, you can be together, and as long as you are kind and brave, you can have a perfect ending. It would be great if the reality was simply "as long as..."
Maybe because I haven't grown up yet, maybe because I'm still living in a dream, so I can still be moved by such a story without a 3D mirror.

    A drastic adaptation of the original fairy tale has become a modern inspirational story with fantasy. Although the love part is very touching, I think what is more touching is the heroine's pursuit of dreams. And when she decided to be a frog for love, I really cried for her. Fairy tales always give you a happy ending where you can choose love and get everything in the end, but in reality, how many girls sacrifice themselves because of love, marriage and family. Therefore, when making a choice and making a decision, you must carefully consider whether you can bear the consequences. I still like the words of the heroine's father: never lose courage for the most important things

    A prince, a Cinderella, a villain who likes to slap a pair of mandarin ducks, and finally a kiss of true love. Too much repetition of a classic becomes a cliché.
