The scene at the end of the latter is like this: The teacher takes Simon and his classmates to the museum to see a painting (Felix Vallotton, "Le Ballon"), in which a child is chasing a red ball, the teacher asks it is A sad picture or a happy picture? A child said: There is a little sadness and a little happiness, because half of the painting is shadow, and the other half has sunshine.
Of course, this is the answer given by Hou. In "Red Balloon", the meaning of the boy's silent playmate may be broader and richer - it may be a friend of the boy's lonely boyhood, or it may be a kind of relationship with the child. closely related features. Lamorris shows the pure, faithful and sincere emotion between the boy and the red balloon in the most simple way, and this connection will not disappear due to the repression of social customs, schools, etc., but is like floating in the city. The balloon in the sky, like the boy, flew to a place no one knew about.
When I watched it for the first time two days ago, I felt that the story was simple and there was a sense of intimacy. Looking back this afternoon, I suddenly found that the footage was clean and many details were well thought out.
The boy's world is happy, and perhaps a little lonely, while the adults' world is full of dark houses and gray costumes, which may be why the color in the final scene is so touching.
