Similar to the previous films of Hayao Miyazaki (this film is just the screenwriter), a pure girl with bright eyes and a good eye, a determined and tenacious teenager, concentrated the wildness of Princess Mononoke in Spiller, as well as in "Howl's Moving Castle". your courage. Even the images of these characters are similar. If you watch enough movies related to Hayao Miyazaki, you will find that Alitie and KIKI look similar, Xiang is a bit like Xiaobailong, more like Jiro Horikoshi. Every time I watch Gong Lao's films, I feel emotional. It seems that every film is the same, but it is different. How can people show you the same thing over and over again, and you can see something different every time? This is the spiritual core of these films.
In many of Miyazaki's films, girls are the protagonists. I once read in an academic book that the Japanese believe that women are the spiritual gender of the Japanese. Women who run, women who are strong, women who bravely rebuild on the ruins, if you pay attention enough, you will find that the protagonists of many Japanese works of art are women. In this movie, the girl Ality is the first protagonist. Compared with her, Xiang and Spiller are supporting roles to set off her. It's also a growth story, like KIKI's story. Ality is 14 years old and is going to borrow things independently. Like all Gong Lao movies, she is also independent and full of courage. She also has a mother who worries about everything and encourages herself to fly to a higher sky. dad.
Ninety percent of people, like me, probably have such doubts in their hearts: Why do you say it's "borrowing" when it's obviously stealing? This is how I understand it. The villains started their lives by relying on human beings from their ancestors. In their view, borrowing things means taking a little bit and not disturbing human life. They do not feel inferior because they are inferior. , but said in an upright manner: Borrowing things, and the process of borrowing things, is not what it deserves to stretch out your hand for food and open your mouth, and it takes a lot of hard work. The process of "borrowing things" is carefully portrayed in the film, and borrowing things is also the work for the survival of the villain family. Dad builds tools from what he has on hand, and also needs to exercise, practice climbing, and reinvent things borrowed from humans. My mother is a housewife, and she made the things her father "borrowed" as a necessity for the family's life. The family built a warm little home the size of a shoe box in the sewers.
Since Xiang's grandfathers had seen the villain at home, they built a doll house and wanted to give it to the villain as a gift, but until the generation of Alitie, they still remembered: the doll house cannot be taken away any item in the .
I think it's not just the fear of being discovered by humans, but also the backbone of the little people borrowing things. What can be taken and what can't be taken. What you get through your own efforts, you only take what you need, don't take too much, and don't wait for gifts weakly. This is the backbone of the villain's borrowing. Now, we often see articles that directly stab weak bitches - "You are weak, are you right?" What a positive image the little people have established. They are not greedy, they are not weak and inferior, and they do not use weak morality to kidnap others. The family never said: Ah, you are adults, what is a sugar cube? You don't care about a tissue, we are a family of villains who don't work hard to survive. The family never said such a thing. When Xiang asked Elity how many clansmen you have, she still carried the superiority of the adult clan. The girl Ality didn't know how many borrowed things were left in the world, but she said confidently and firmly: No matter what, we must work hard to survive. "Borrowing things" is to work hard to live, but also to work hard to live, so "borrowing things" should not be stealing things and begging for things, just like we have to work hard, but if we have to bow down for a bite of bread, I am afraid it will be the same in this life. Tired, distressed. Work is for living, and dignified work is for living. This is the quality of life.
In the end, the Elity family also left Xiang's house. You and I may hate people like A-Chun at a glance. They are very ignorant, relying on their powerful bodies (or loud voices), they think they are superior, bully the weak, and have no compassion in their hearts. But from a human point of view, she was nothing more than a faithful maid. She cared more about the piece of sugar and the piece of tissue than the owner. Why assign such a role to the maid? This is precisely the reflection of this world. The owners of the old house are tolerant, understanding and welcoming towards the villain, but a maid who has nothing to do with herself wants to hurt the villain. The more people at the bottom of society, the more they lack a kind and tolerant heart. They treat the villains the same way they treat those who are weaker than them or who they don't understand. The cunning and secretiveness in A Chun's eyes shows us the sense of existence and superiority that a person obtains by bullying others. Such people are no longer a minority, but those who live well are more tolerant towards others and respect the weak. All people, in the world outside this animation, can actually find prototypes.
Xiang said: You gave me the courage to live. The movie doesn't show the teenager too much, but there is no doubt that he is very lonely. Parents are divorced, no one cares, even if it is about to die soon, they still can't get false attention. In the process of protecting Elity, this boy may have gained the courage to protect the person he loves even if he is weak. Although the movie never mentions the relationship between the adults and the villains, there is a place in Xiang's heart that belongs to the villain girl Elity. Of course they are destined to be separated. You can interpret their friendship as friendship, but I prefer to It is regarded as the beginning of love. Red mulberries represent feelings that can be achieved in a world, and a small hairpin and a sugar cube are feelings that can only be missed. Everyone has their own mission and the distance they want to reach. The relationship between the girl Ai Liti and the boy Xiang is just right, giving people warmth and will be remembered forever.
You will never be disappointed, set aside an hour and a half for Ghibli, it will always be bland, always tell you a story told many, many times in the most bland tone, but every time, yes As far as you are concerned, it is a new story. Every time, it is still the touch of ironing, the warmth of plainness, this is the charm of Ghibli, this is the dreamland created by Hayao Miyazaki-in fact, it is not Is it your childhood?
