Hayao Miyazaki said, "This film is neither an indictment of the war nor intended to inspire young people in Japan by depicting the excellence of the Zero fighter, but it also does not want to hide Erlang's sincere desire to build a civilian aircraft, only hope Telling the story of such a man who is loyal to his dreams and forging ahead." This film is not only for children, but also for adults. A plot film without surrealism, magic, and fantasy is just narrated in chronological order. Except for the scenes in Erlang's dream, the animation is basically faithful to reality. The anti-war message revealed in the movie makes people admire the old man's position and positive energy. A person who likes to manufacture and research aircraft does not like war. This is a contradiction. Therefore, the dream of flying is a nightmare ending. How painful is it to see the plane that he built crashed in the war? There is a gap between the ideal and the reality. I want to create a perfect aircraft, but it is used in war. I still prefer the inspirational and love lines in the main line. Erlang is determined to stick to his ideals to the end. It is good to have dreams, always full of strength and goals. And Nahoko's feelings for Erlang are one of the most touching tears. A world with pyramids or a world without pyramids, which one do you choose? Erlang chose a world with pyramids, and pyramids meant gaps and cruel competition. To maintain the structure of the pyramid, it is destined to have a large number of bricks at the bottom and only a few bricks at the top. A pyramid is used to represent a social structure. The people at the bottom are poor and tired, and most people are in this class. The higher up they are, the higher they are. The rich and powerful are in the upper structure. Maintaining such a balance requires cruel competition. and eliminated. Maybe this movie is really not dreamy and beautiful, and even after watching it, it makes people sigh. Human beings are contradictory creatures. On the one hand, they must continue to innovate and make breakthroughs. On the other hand, they use these innovations to create killings and wars. It is to reduce wars and maintain world peace. During World War II, aircraft became weapons of mass destruction and helped fascists slaughter many innocent people. It is a human dream to fly like a bird. The manufacture of airplanes makes this dream close to reality. The cruel reality is that the military has to spend a lot of money to build killing weapons when the people are hungry during the war. The film criticizes reality, and of course, because it is close to reality and criticizes reality, the theme of the whole film is heavy. Even if the wind blows, life never gives up.
