Wild Things also talk about love

There is no complicated plot, and there are even few human beings. The story of a little boy who escapes from home is also a dream.

In the realm of beasts, they don't know how to get rid of loneliness and how to wait in the cycle of love, violence and quarrel for a king who can make them love each other. But this time, the king who was waiting was their same kind, smelling each other the same, angry, violent and hurt the same.

The little king thought that as long as he built a strong castle, he could resist all unhappiness and have his own world. However, those who do not like, those loneliness and estrangement have not been dug out by the automatic castle. They have boundless mana and can get in through any gap. Dive into the solid world and reach the little heart.

Put a small heart, howl loudly like a beast, look at each other with a smile, let a person hide in his body, or watch a person eat and fall asleep because of peace of mind, these safe supports are better than castles. Hold yourself up stronger.

Maybe KW reminded him of the night Mom listened to him tenderly about vampires, and that vampires who lost their teeth and couldn't suck would be abandoned by other ghosts, but Mom wouldn't. And that violent and restless beast kingdom probably does not need a king, but a female character who is equally soothing.

Yelling, crying and laughing, folded bodies, worried that the sun will die tomorrow. A child's world magnifies all weakness, fear and longing, but there is always a way home.

Love is the hardest and easiest thing.

    I want to imagine a kingdom, live in it and never come back.

Where the Wild Things Are quotes

  • Max: Did you make this?

    Carol: Yeah, yeah.

    Max: It's very good.

    Carol: We were gonna make a whole world like this. Now, everyone used to come here, but you know... you know what it feels like when all your teeth are falling out really slowly and you don't realize and then you notice that, well, they're really far apart. And then one day... you don't have any teeth anymore.

    Max: Yeah.

    Carol: Well it was like that.

  • Max: [upon seeing Carol remove his crown from a pile of bones] Are those... other kings?

    Carol: Oh, those? I don't know anything about that. Those were like that when we got here.
