A pointless trip, not to mention bizarre (at least please don't translate the title like that)

The content that the movie wants to express is very jumpy, but the actual viewing experience is not good, and it always makes people feel like "Did you just watch a little bit of distraction" - even if the situation comes back after the event. It's also not laudable about the journey, since my mother is a scientist, why can't I understand the value of winning to help TS go to Washington? During the whole trip, the protagonist's luggage, activities, etc. are completely unsustainable. All the details that can make an impression appear before and after the trip, and these details do not seem to help the film itself to express much, and the trivial is deposited.
Several French films I've seen recently have children as protagonists (like Je m'appelle Elisabeth), but none of the stories told are the minds of a body of that age - even with such a mature/intelligent child, I don't think The same as the movie describes. The director just borrowed a child's body to think as an adult, and then switched back to the child's position to form an inexplicable perception. This kind of processing is very difficult, and at least this film did not handle it well.

    In 2013, there were two movies with great photography and great music, but the story did not make me feel great (just thought it was pretty good). After watching it, I wanted to relive it on the big screen. ", one is "The Bizarre Journey of Young Speyway". ——I like the passage where TS takes the train to Washington to receive the award the most! It's so wonderful that I have the urge to secretly "catch" the same train and enjoy the breathtaking scenery.

    I love it as much as "The Grand Budapest Hotel", with an obsessive-compulsive aesthetic, sweet but not greasy tones, sad and not sad, all kinds of magnified details of whimsy, the characters are well behaved, it's just a French "genius" American journey. After watching it, the cute energy and healing power can be stored in your body for at least a week, haha. And it's another satirical work that presents something very realistic with fairy tale touches.
