Ben Saoirse Conor Bronach Macha
, watched it for the second time and was still impressed by the film's beautiful pictures and beautiful singing. Unlike The Secret of the Book of Kells, which is full of obscure meanings, this movie is relatively easy to understand, and the production of the picture is also on a higher level.
Consider these questions:
1. Why did Bronach have to go to sea when he was about to give birth to Saoirse and never came back. At the time she said I had to do this for the sake of the child, sorry. In addition, why did Bronach not take Saoirse.
2. Why is Ben a normal person and not a seal fairy?
3. Why do both Saoirse and Bronach in some cases become weak and their hair slowly turns white?
4. Why do old people with long hair lose their memory?
5. Why the fairy turns to stone after Macha takes the fairy's emotions.
6. Saoirse sang and opened the passage between the fairy world and the human world. Why did the fairies have to return to that world, and why were they trapped in the human world in the first place?
7. What does the film want to express most?
Answers:
1.
Bronach experienced sudden pain during pregnancy and left the house in a panic, which she did not expect, indicating that this was not the case when she had her first child. The biggest difference between the two children is that Saoirse is a seal fairy. Having to go to the sea to give birth to Saoirse means that Saoirse is not born like an ordinary child, but undergoes another ceremony. This ceremony is likely to be accompanied by a certain contract, which can explain why the mother had to leave. Bronach was naturally reluctant to part with this home, but for the sake of the child, in order to make the family as complete as possible, she had to leave. As for what made Bronach so compelled?
2.
Part 1 has already been answered. Seal fairy is very special, so it is normal that Ben is not a seal fairy.
3.
Because they are all seal fairies, they can only be happy in the sea. The pain in the world will weaken their vitality and even make them look old. The Song of the Sea revives Saoirse, the most beautiful sound of the sea, brings Saoirse back to happiness and heals the pain of the past.
4.
The long-haired old man was apparently cursed in some way, too, because he didn't start out as a happy fairy. Every strand of his hair is a fairy tale. What does the old man with long hair mean?
5.
Macha always takes her emotions away, but only her lower body turns to stone. When a fairy's emotions are taken away, it will turn into stone, and Macha obviously has more complex emotions, and ordinary fairies are very simple.
6.
The beautiful singing wakes up the fairies, lifts all kinds of curses on them, and the door to another world opens. Without the coat, Saoirse will become like an ordinary person. On Halloween, the fairies want to go out, which is what Ben told Saoirse, and Macha will stop the fairies. And Bronach left after giving birth to Saoirse, just one day before Halloween. The implication here is that Halloween is the day when fairies return to their world, and people pretend to be all kinds of ghosts on that day so fairies don't have to worry about being recognized. Maybe the fairy can come back, but Saoirse can't become a seal fairy again.
Fairies represent some spirituality of all things in the world, that is the spirituality of nature, that is the soul of the ocean.
7. The movie focuses on the Ben family's affection and mutual love. Ben realizes his harshness towards Saoirse and cares about his sister again, which makes her determined to stay in the world. In addition, what the owl witch wants to express is that all kinds of emotions make people whole, and emotions such as sadness, joy, and anger are an indispensable part of human beings.
Connection, love and emotions, these things are not the most precious things in people, aren't they the ones we miss the most. Without emotions, we can't perceive joy and sorrow, so people think of a stone, which is no longer a human life; without mutual love, we will not have so much attachment to this world, and little Saoirse will not be here. After suffering so much pain, she was willing to play the flute. She loved her home so much that she refused to leave with her mother.
Relate to the title of the movie, Song of the Sea, this song uses beautiful melody and voice to call out the beautiful things in the world, such as love and emotions.
