- "The Lion King" After watching
the movie "The Lion King", people can relate to the golden generation of the movie in 1994, the most advanced 2D animation technology at that time, the original African soundtrack of the grand scene . Of course, there is also the dignity and redemption of a leader.
Although the reincarnation of life
is a cartoon, it is the most serious cartoon in Disney history. Although it is an original script, more film critics often compare "The Lion King" to the animated version of "Hamlet", and even the scriptwriting team is calm and deeply influenced by the story, Shakespeare and ancient Greek mythology. Mufasa's teachings to Simba perfectly illustrate the ABCs of the Law of the Jungle. On that distant prairie, the natural laws of domination, seizing power, and enthronement are constantly being repeated. "Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. All life in the world exists in a delicate balance", which is the eternal law of the universe.
Responsibility VS Freedom
Young Simba believes that his father Mufasa's death was caused by himself, and finally chooses to escape. The days of Hedingban and Pengpeng were relaxed and free, which could have allowed Simba to hide in the "Peach Blossom Land" of his life and enjoy the "insect feast". The story completes Simba's inner turn in the form of Mufasa's return to light. This Simba's sense of self-worth is blown away. He is a lion and the king of the grassland.

"The Lion King" The portrayal of "Male No. 1" Simba finally returns to the simple educational significance - from boy to man, from youth to maturity, from cowardice to courageous responsibility, from self-exile to self-redemption.
Tragedy of Power
"The Lion King" is a milestone in the history of human animation. For children, its significance is undoubtedly the victory of justice over evil, and the prince and princess have lived happily ever after. But from a deep perspective, the main line of the story is still serious and ancient, or even a bit tragic. No wonder some people say that the essence of "The Lion King" is too adult, and it is easy to cast a shadow on minors. Mufasa's death and Scar's death are just the true portrayal of today's international situation, political disputes, and business turmoil. It confirms the famous saying in "Paradise Cinema" - life is different from movies, and life is much harder.
