Wow, I haven't seen this kind of magic movie for a long time, it is different from the dark magic like Harry Potter, it can give people the beauty of endless fairy tales.
The magic nanny McPhee is based on the British literary picture book "Nurse Matilda" in the 1960s. McPhee has two moles on his face, a carrot nose, a mouth full of jagged teeth, a bucket waist and a burnt appearance. The hair looks so terrifying, it can basically scare children into screaming and forget about being naughty when they appear.
McPhee came to the house of the male protagonist who had just lost his wife. The family had 7 children, none of whom were easy to discipline, and 17 nannies had already been mad. McPhee was like Jigong or Avalokitesvara in Chinese legend. There is no other relevant record, but wherever there is a problem, she will appear there, and then save all sentient beings and act as a chivalrous person. With the help of a grotesque cane, she can make donkeys dance, tidy up a messy kitchen in an instant, and make snow fall in the sky in August, but mainly through wisdom and love, she begins to control the family and make these children They gradually realize that their aggressive actions will soon have consequences that they themselves fear, and slowly unite with McPhee and follow her teachings.
Every time the children make great progress, the ugly McPhee will remove an ugly part of the body, and finally McPhee becomes young and beautiful.
She has a thought-provoking sentence: when you need me but don't want me to stay, I have to stay; when you want me to stay but don't need me anymore, then I have to go.
At the end of the film, McPhee smiled slightly but was sad, because the children who had changed their stubborn temperament no longer needed her as a magical nanny, and she could quietly leave and find another place that needed her...
