In the 2015 Oscar competition for the best animated feature film, Ireland's "Song of the Sea" and Japan's "Kaguya Ji Monogatari" lost to Disney's "Big Hero 6". Although the film was not made to fight for the illusory world number one, although the reputation of "Big Hero 6" is amazing, but after viewing these three cartoons in a row, "Big Hero 6" has won the business with cuteness. Dafa, after all, has fallen into vulgarity. Adapted from the new animation of Meiman, in the aftermath of the wind, it is far inferior to the ancient legend that has been passed down for thousands of years and suddenly awakened. But one thing is certain. "Big Hero 6" is more suitable for teenagers to watch, because it wants to talk about simple things, while "Song of the Sea" and "Kaguya Ji Monogatari" seem to be filmed for adults. Animation. They look too unhappy, repeating the protagonist's sorrows, and the songs also reveal the sadness that has passed through the vicissitudes of time and the vicissitudes of life. "Song of the Sea" has a climax that the audience knows will appear, that is, the little seal girl sings brightly, but the movie is to be delayed to the end, and then it takes more than ten minutes to say goodbye to the ancient legend. Before that, the little seal girl babbled and blew the snail horn. She was semi-petrified in the middle, and had a few strands of hair dyed white, which made people feel pity and worry. The arrival of the climax is not unexpected, but it still reminds me of the characters in the silent film talking, and in the "City Light", the blind girl reappears in the light. Some people say that ancient legends and fairy tales are not difficult to shoot. Of course, if you just want to show it to your children, then just follow the script and talk and tell the story while watching the picture book. As long as the child falls asleep, it is a good story. However, if adults are to be able to immerse themselves in it and cause a touch of sentimentality, then this requires the creator's strong expressive ability. To some extent, "Song of the Sea" is more traditional than "Kaguya Ji Monogatari" (despite the approval of a coat of a modern seaside town), but its style is always the same, and there will be no crazy night rushes. Similar to Tom Moore's previous work "The Secret of the Kell", "Song of the Sea" hardly needs perspective. Both islands and small towns have a strong hand-painted style. Some people say that it is clumsy and clumsy, deliberately showing simplicity and clumsiness, and cannot keep up with the mainstream style of contemporary animation. The film takes the rotating pattern of the island art to the extreme. The smart lines, rounded circles, and light color style make each picture a wonderful painting, which can be used as a pure visual art appreciation-so to speak. Not an exaggeration. Humans, elves, animals, and the sea are composed of similar but different lines, which entangle and connect them together. The cord that my brother brought with him, or pulled it Sister, either is tied to Q's dog. The silver hair of the old elves is inextricably threaded, and every hair contains a story of a person (did you think of the knotting notes of the ancients), what a magical setting, this is the amazing charm that legends can have . It is not difficult to see that Tom Moore emphasized the ultimate meaning of line painting, that is, between modern life and ancient legends, cartoons are the best line. It can visualize text and fill imagination beyond text. space. Shown in the movie, there are also various patterns, rich details, and amazing information evolved from Celtic knots, all of which make this legend look more like a legend. For this cartoon creator, lines are the Esperanto he used to write, which can awaken the childishness of the audience and the original intention of life. Behind Irish legends and fairy tales, some people have found out that they are just fairy tales made up by people in ancient times. When a woman died in childbirth, the father lied to the child that her mother had become a seal girl and had not returned after swimming in the sea. After being passed down from generation to generation, fairy tales have evolved to this day, but modern audiences are willing to believe that such a magical seal girl really existed. The giant crying into the sea, only need a picture, we can understand his pain and sorrow. The magical coat is not the cutest existence besides the dog, no wonder some people also think of Hayao Miyazaki's Ponyo. In returning to the traditional path, they took a path opposite to Hollywood 3D animation. Perhaps, there is no need to favor the other here. Behind every strong culture, there are other cultures that are afraid of passing away and being forgotten. "Song of the Sea" has dedicated the essence of the Irish nation to the world. With this alone, it can be called great. 【China News Weekly】The father lied to the child that his mother had become a seal girl and would not come back after swimming in the sea.
