"Spirited Away" is my favorite of Hayao Miyazaki's animated films. Every time I watch this film, I have a new experience. Every detail brings me different insights. Every character is like a friend. Just like a good book, a good story is like this, it doesn’t tell you any big truth directly, but makes people understand many hidden meanings in the appreciation over and over again. This kind of appreciation is often relaxed and happy. It can be said that after "Spirited Away", Hayao Miyazaki really became a palace-level master in the eyes of the Western world. After the animation was released, it won the Best Animated Feature Film Award at the 75th Academy Awards and the Golden Bear Award at the 52nd Berlin International Film Festival. It can break through national borders and cultural differences, perhaps because it expresses a universal language love. The film tells the story of Chihiro and her parents going to their new home, accidentally entering a mysterious tunnel on a small road in the suburbs. They go to another weird world - a medieval town. The smell of food wafted from the distance, and my parents feasted on it, but they turned into pigs! At this time, many strange and translucent people gradually came to the town. Chihiro fled in a hurry, and a man named Xiaobai rescued him, fed her medicine to stop her body from disappearing, and told her how to find Grandpa Boiler and Granny Yu, and she had to get a job to avoid being turned into something else by magic s things. With the help of Xiaobai, Chihiro was lucky enough to get a job doing odd jobs in the bath. Gradually, she was no longer intimidated by those strange people, and learned from Xiaoling that Xiaobai was the disciple of the vicious Granny Tang. Once, Qianxun found that Xiaobai was injured by a group of white flying paper figurines. In order to save the injured Xiaobai, she used the pills given to her by the river god to drive out the seal in Xiaobai's body and the goblin guarding the seal, but Xiaobai used the pills given to her by the river god. Bai still didn't wake up. In order to save Xiaobai, Chihiro embarks on her adventure again. Miyazaki's "Spirited Away" does not deliberately express any environmental or anti-war ideology. Of course, the river god was polluted into the god of decay, and this episode is a condemnation of human beings for destroying the environment. A timid and cowardly little girl is lost in the strange magical world, gradually grows up, understands love and being loved, and always maintains sincerity, and finally returns to the original world. Such a story is actually about the process of finding the self from the lost way of self. In the magical world, Yuba will take away the person's name after signing a job contract with a person, which means that the person is manipulated, which is the first step of getting lost. In the huge bathing place, the waiters were staring at the guests' wallets, and the Faceless Monster used gold as a temptation to swallow three people. It was a metaphor. People were swallowed up by material desires and blindfolded. This is the second step of getting lost. And Chihiro was able to find her way home, and she didn't get lost in the end, because there was love guiding her, love for Xiaobai, love for the faceless monster, and love for her parents. ~ 1 / 3 ~ Chihiro is a child, with the cleanliness and innocence of a little girl, as well as the cowardice and cowardice of a little girl. He has been growing up under the protection of his parents, with the happiness within reach and the troubles and helplessness of being considered stupid and ignorant by adults. It also has its own initial understanding of the world and a less clear code of conduct. The fear of unfamiliar territory may be shared by everyone, but under the temptation, Chihiro’s parents’ inner fears were overcome by desire. Chihiro didn’t go to eat soup because she was a child and was too frightened. The so-called food of the gods that my mother-in-law said was not turned into a pig. The author turned Chihiro's parents into "pigs" because of greed. Isn't this a warning to the world! Once a person becomes dominated by desires, once he loses his diligence and only knows how to enjoy himself, it may be the time when his thoughts begin to ponder and become lazy. Too late! When they found out that their parents had suddenly become "pigs", when the children in China could only sit there crying and their thoughts were all despairing, the story did not deify Xiao Qianxun, but arranged for the appearance of "white dragon". Let the disappointed people not despair. In fact, we can understand that this is the power of society, the power of interpersonal relationships, or the power of friends. With the help of friends, Xiao Qianxun did not despair, but hid her grief in her heart and faced the reality bravely. This is to educate people: even the biggest difficulties and changes, don't give up easily, adjust your mentality in time, and have the courage to face reality. "Don't forget your name", Shiro told Chihiro that. Yes, you can't go back if you forget your name. When children often play crazy, their parents get angry and say, "I've forgotten what my surname is, right?" And adults often get lost. Sometimes, they even sell their bottom line for what they want in front of them. If you want to return to your own world and be yourself, you must remember your own name. In contrast, Bai Long was not so lucky. He forgot his name and had to obey Tang Po Po and do some shameless things, so that he would be criticized by others, saying that the dragon had no concept of good and evil. Perhaps in our lives, there is always such a person who appears, consciously or unintentionally, to remind us. When Qianxun saw Bai Long who was in extreme pain, in this world, he was the person he could trust and rely on the most. I am more important than my parents, but at that critical moment, there is no future, only now. When Xiaoling asked why this was in confusion, Grandpa Boiler said, this is love. That's right, only people like Grandpa Boiler can say such a thing. Those who have experienced hardships know that this is love. A kind of family love that transcends blood and includes everything between people. At this time, Chihiro is no longer the weak little girl. She has grown up, understands love, and understands dedication and responsibility. ~ 2 / 3 ~ In addition to these, many details in the play also reveal the beauty of "human" nature: Chihiro never abandons his parents, which is the beauty of family affection; "White Dragon" draws his sword to help, which is the beauty of justice; Care and love are the beauty of kindness; Chihiro has no grudge towards Granny Qian, the frog monster, the invisible monster, and the malice towards the "coal dung", but instead influences them with sincerity, winning their trust and help. It is the beauty of tolerance and forgiveness! There are also invisible monsters that go from "good" to "bad", and then return to the good side from the extinction of nature. The constant emphasis on the importance of "names" in the play is actually a warning beauty to warn people not to lose themselves! There is also the beauty of courage that runs through the entire plot! The beauty of hard work! The beauty of persistence! Of course, it goes without saying that the picture is also beautiful! The final outcome is, of course, a return. Qianxun obeyed Bai's persuasion, endured her curiosity, and never looked back before walking out of the passage. This is very difficult for a child to do, perhaps we can say that she is no longer a child - when she worked hard to save her parents, when she was running around to save Bai, when she alone took on many It's something that is too hard for an adult, she is no longer just a child. Although the two people are separated from each other at the end of the film, I firmly believe that after the end of the story, there will be stories that we don't know about to continue. , no longer pursue the other side of the sea, the dazzling treasure has always been here, and it can be found on me." In the sound of singing at the end of the film, Hayao Miyazaki is still telling his thoughts on life, people are always searching , but the ultimate goal is still on yourself.
