About the original dream. about love.

Very loving, very loving,
very warm and very warm.

I think
maybe we don't need a big Hollywood blockbuster.
There's no need for a terrifying thriller either.

Because ah.
As long as it is a little warm, cute, and moved,
it is enough to make us feel happy about it.

This is a movie that will make you feel again that the world is actually a beautiful place after watching it.
Personally, I think it's really better to use animation rather than live action.
Because
few people in life have such a pure heart,
and we are always passive and timid about love, dreams, and the future.
In contrast, we more or less embraced the dream of flying, and at most we were just foolishly daydreaming in the quilt.
Perhaps no one can be so obsessed with their original dream.

But, comfortingly. The little people in the movies can.
Whether it is a little old man in his 70s who still sticks to his old house and travels around without authorization,
a little old woman who says "I like you" arrogantly and willfully and also loves adventure,
or a childish boy with adventure badges on his chest,
or Charles, an old adventurer who will do anything to prove himself.
etc.
They are the cutest bunch of people.
They bring us not only a visual feast,
but also a spiritual comfort.

I admit that in the first fifteen minutes of the movie, I was moved to death.
However, when I haven't finished reminiscing about the sweet life of the old couple, the warm love story is over.
Stupid like me, because I always thought that the plot of their life together was just a dream of a little boy in his sleep, and while being moved, I didn't forget to secretly think "He thinks so beautifully~". However, after the image of the old little old man kept appearing on the screen for a long time, I realized that those were all real.
So my heart suddenly sank. It's like regret for missing something beautiful.
Human life is so short that it comes to an end before we can let it go. We never learn to cherish, never learn to believe in life, and always realize it at the end.
While watching the film, I suddenly deserted and remembered what a deceased singer sang, "People are young, unknowingly, they have to go back when they wake up." I

love them very much.
What I love is that little old man with a square face and a square black frame, who always frowns tightly, making people unable to help the little old man who has a dream of flying for more than 70 years in his heart.
What I love is the little boy who is always full of curiosity and childlike innocence and is full of proud little badges who clumsily repeat "self-introduction" with a notepad on his first appearance.
What I love is that little old lady who arrogantly chattered and bravely confessed "I like you" when she was a child, and always fiercely made boys swear that she would go on adventures with her.
What I love is the cozy-looking hut full of infinite warm memories that originally had a colorful balloon bundle hidden in it and finally took the little old man to travel around the world.
Love is that colorful, playful and lively big bird who will take the little boy to play around in the forest, and always loves to knock the little old man's head three times with his jaw.
I love the timid, shy, and human-speaking puppy who is bullied by other vicious dogs but always stands up to help his owners through the critical moment at critical moments.

The one who loves is also the stubborn and cruel old adventurer Charles who is willing to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests for more than a few decades for the sake of his ideals.


This is a good movie.
No tears and no dissatisfaction.
Yes, it's just full of emotion and renewed confidence in the world.

Bless, may I meet you in my next sleep.
Meet my first dream, first love, first obsession.

    The beauty of a warm cartoon story lies in the incomplete and lonely old man. It's not a very smooth dream trip. However, the ending is important. It's always the harvest of the process.
