This movie is a clip about the evil growth of American girl Moonee's summer vacation. She led a small gang to lie and cheat money for entertainment, destroy public facilities, and burn unmanned villas;
When I was a junior in the United States, I went to Disneyland with my classmates to play in Orlando. Looking out from the hotel window at night, the neon-flickering Ferris wheel was slowly turning. At that time, I felt that Orlando was really a dream city. But when Moonee passes by all kinds of colorful cartoon buildings, the shots are switched one by one, like a barrier separating slum girls and normal children playing in the playground.
This is American poverty. Parents work at a fast food restaurant for $8 an hour, eat the leftovers they brought back, and blatantly beg from tourists. It seems that there is no dignity in living. Barbara said in "My Life at the Bottom" that these employees who work in fast food restaurants, with minimum wages, live in expensive motels instead of relatively cheap rental houses. When asked about the reason, it turned out that the weekly wages could only be paid to hotels that could be paid on the day.
Moonee is happy, even without the merry-go-round and pirate ship, she can always find a way to make herself happy. It's just that this may be the happiest time of her life. She didn't feel the seriousness of the class division, but only saw the out-of-town tourists who went the wrong way and refused to settle in the cheap motel, and heard the deafening noise of the private helicopter engine in the distance. She doesn't yet know that America's class solidification leaves families like hers with absolutely no chance of upward mobility. In "Heterogeneous", it is said that the academic differences between children from poor families and wealthy families are caused during the holidays. is not that right? These hard-working parents in fast food restaurants just want to have a good rest when they go home. At most, they hope that their children will not cause trouble during the summer vacation, and do not play with bad children. If they can achieve this level, they are satisfied. Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can not be done. So when Scooty's mother found out that he and Moonee had burned down the deserted villa, and immediately cut off contact with the Moonee family, this is really a conscious mother.
Of course, there is a high probability that a bear child has a bear mother. Moonee's mother has a large area of tattoos on her body, which shows that she is a bad girl without words. In Orlando, where every place is a perfect backdrop, my mother took a tourist photo of Moonee in front of the burning villa; she took her daughter into the cafeteria of a high-end golf hotel and reported the room number she made up without changing her face; The child is locked in the toilet, and the loud volume is used to cover up the physical dealings in the room. Although the mother and child have done a lot of bad behavior, neither of them has any thoughts. The mother just thinks of the ways she can think of and tries her best to raise the child to grow up; the child just lives every moment of herself within her cognitive limitations.
Moonee is a lovable child who understands that his mother cares about others and is keen to share good things with friends. Who is not at fault? When we were young, we would also lie and steal money to buy snacks. But we're just kids, aren't we? There is absolutely no need to look at these actions through a lens covered in layers of values, these are instincts, a slice of the pure heart of our lives
At the last parting moment, Moonee ran to her good friend Jancey's house to see her for the last time. The first time Moonee cried aloud, it wasn't because she didn't have pocket money to buy ice cream, eat maple sauce, or play games on Ipad, just because she wanted to play with this The best playmates of summer leave. Jancey watched Moonee cry helplessly, and suddenly remembered that there was a place he hadn't gone to, so he grabbed Moonee's hand and ran to the dreamy Disney Castle. This is the little dream of their little hearts, which is both out of reach and insignificant.
