How Elmer was chosen

Try to be a ghost and make them not interested in us.

"I don't want to be a ghost, I want to be an astronaut," the little boy said firmly when he was bullied after being sent to a boarding school where violence can solve all problems.

Elmer's eyes speak, from clear, full of infinite hope, to those hopes slowly slipping away. After being sexually assaulted, he suddenly changed into a soul, and he also pretended to be a ghost. Unlike others, he was the ghost who wanted to be an astronaut. Christmas is their last hope, but they still haven't escaped from this violent school.

Why do other kids in the school always like to laugh at him, because "wanting to be an astronaut" makes him out of tune with the people around him. Because the children have been assimilated by the constitution. When we were children, we also had this kind of "want to be...", all of which ended innocently because of a look in other people's eyes. But Elmer, how did Elmer choose.

Silence so you don't get hit

The way to solve everything here is, a slap, a fist, the children dare not resist, only fear and sluggishness. The violent principal said, "One day, you'll know it's for your own good." Will tomorrow really be okay?

I saw someone write: Tomorrow will be good, just a lie told by a bad guy to a fool.

three

I have no fear

The movie restrains this despair and devastation just right. When you see that those children have become insensitive under this kind of authoritarian education, Elmer will always give people hope, because you firmly believe that this stubborn little boy will always have something. One day I will bravely say no.

Sure enough, when he wore his "moon landing suit" and walked down the stairs calmly like an adult, you knew that he was going to resist, no longer waiting for tomorrow.

    The Danish version of "The Furnace" does not have the darkness and direct violence of the latter. While suppressing, this film also gives viewers some hope, such as the dream of a little boy astronaut. The directing skills are very solid, and many scenes are impressive. In fact, such a thing is not far away from us, China can shoot Yang Yongxin's treatment center.

    Shocking! Extremely shocking! For this great film, for this great performance, the two little boys are so spiritual, and their small bodies burst out with great energy. When I saw the ending of "Real-life adaptation", I felt heartbroken instantly. May there be no evil in the world, especially for children.
