The memory of The Lion King is still stuck in a certain summer, sleeping with his brother on the sofa of his grandmother's house. The live-action version has been released before I want to see the animated version when I was a child, but I am still deeply moved.

Simba loving parents

When he was young, Simba was very happy, smart and cute. Like many children, he had a strong curiosity about everything. He also had the inherent adventurous spirit and bravery of the Lion King, but he did not have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Prompted by ulterior motives, he put himself in the first danger, but was rescued by mufasa in time. The failure of the first temptation did not let Scar give up, and finally killed Mufasa through the second plan, and also let Simba Falling into deep self-blame and despair, he has since left his hometown. Scar became the king of his dreams, but the whole country was left without water and food by bad people, animals all migrated away, and the ecology was out of balance. At this time, Simba was out of the world and was saved by two good friends in the future. They taught him to forget the past, so that Simba temporarily escaped his negative emotions and lived with two good friends in Xanadu, brainwashing himself to forget the past.

Three good friends live in Xanadu

But deep in his heart, he didn't forget his mission, until a childhood friend accidentally found him on a hunt and told him that his homeland was under serious threat.

Meet up with childhood friends

The elder monkey also found him, awakened his mission to the family, remembered Mufasa's entrustment and the past, he resolutely went back, although he did not know that his father was killed by scar at this time, thinking that his own mistake caused his father's death. When Simba returned home, he happened to meet Scar beating his mother, so he appeared to face Scar and asked to take over the family again.

Simba fights with uncle

Scar told the truth that he killed Mufasa in the fight, but the kind Simba did not kill him, and Scar was eventually killed by his accomplices.

In the final scene in the rain, Simba becomes king.

When I watched The Lion King, I actually thought about myself. When I was a child, my parents helped me to solve a lot of troubles for me, but gradually I had to take responsibility for my own behavior. They could no longer let the environment around me change for me, and they couldn’t deal with my troubles. It is to face it yourself. This is certainly not easy, there may be many people with ulterior motives, there will be bad circumstances, and all the things you are proud of will be stripped from you in a period, your dreams will be shattered, and the real will be shattered. It is the first thing that comes to mind and is the easiest to do, but with the support of good friends and the encouragement of trusted people, I will gradually think of an adult to take my responsibilities. As The Lion King said at the beginning, one cycle at a time.

The Lion King quotes

  • Pumbaa: Anything we can do?

    Young Simba: Not unless you can change the past.

  • Scar: Simba. What have you done?

    Young Simba: There were wildebeests, and he tried to save me. It was an accident. I didn't mean for it to happen.

    Scar: Of course. Of course you didn't. No one ever means for these things to happen. But the king is dead. And if it weren't for you, he'd still be alive.
