As Murder TV said in "Movie Public Hi Lesson", Takahata Isao's imagination and creativity in animation are indeed better than that of Hayao Miyazaki. Compared with him, Hayao Miyazaki is more realistic and has more space for imagination. weaker. The rough brush strokes add a certain strength to the film, and also add a legendary color similar to an ancient comic strip.
It may also be because it is an adaptation of a legendary story, so the whole film is full of charming and lovely fantasy colors, as well as the wonderful interaction between man and nature. The first half of the mountain and forest is very exciting, full of beautiful fantasy, everything in nature is full of agility and vitality in the movie. The movements of the characters are also natural and delicate.
After going to Kyoto in the second half, the plot became a lot more conventional. Many plots were driven only by the lines and the depressing atmosphere. The changes in the princess' inner emotions were monotonous and not delicate and rich enough.
Before the princess returned to the moon, the ballad sounded again, and I couldn't help but wet my eyes. The good wish for nature is the most moving part throughout the film. Heaven and earth have great beauty without saying it, but most people do not know that they are ignorant.
The film expresses a very strong sense of fate, where they come from, they go back to, and different social roles cannot escape their original selves. It also implies another point of view, that is, knowing yourself and being yourself is the most comfortable posture in life. How can a man who comes from the fields and lives in nature become a man who is bundled in a house like an aristocrat? People who are born without certain factors in their blood or in the environment they grew up in, even if they want to acquire a certain ability, it is difficult for them to truly become part of their way of life. Volunteer. So the little princess felt depressed in the palace and could only seek the peace of the small field in the backyard. Different people are not superior or inferior. The rich, the poor, the low and the low are all packaged by people who think they are high in society. Everyone has the most suitable and favorite way of life in their hearts, and they cannot enjoy their original favorite appearance. It's the saddest thing.
The little princess came with good hopes and wanted to taste all things in the world, but she saw the ups and downs of the world, people were separated, and material desires were flowing. When she finally left, the sentence "nostalgia, love everything in this world" is the most rare. The world is like this, there are beautiful and ugly, and they all constitute a complete unity. To be able to see the truth and still have tears in your eyes, still love the world and love life, will not waste the gift of life.
