Reunited again, and then walked on firmly.
I finally reunited with "Spirited Away" again. Although I have seen it before, it is the first time in my life to appreciate this Miyazaki classic on the big screen.
Classics need to be savored and even re-watched over and over again, and each time you watch them, you will have a different look and feel from the past. Spirited Away is no exception. When I rewatched it in the dark cinema, I burst into tears several times, and even turned into Chihiro for a few moments without knowing it. I experienced the adventures with her and gained the feeling of growing together. This is what I expected. , and never seen this movie before.
While flying in the sky, Chihiro confided to Bai Long about the incident that he had accidentally fallen into the water but was rescued by a river called Amber River, and said that Bai Long's real name was actually "See the Amber Lord in the early morning" At that time, Bai Long turned into a human figure in an instant, and he and Chihiro hugged each other in the sky and wept. At that moment, I couldn't help crying with them.
Just because of a momentary inexplicable fate, they are sincere with a person who has never been masked, accompany each other all the way through the wind and water, like and protect this person, I just hope that he can remember his original appearance... And this may be The whole point of the young world, right?
In addition to the sincere friendship between Bailong and Chihiro, there are many things that touched me in "Spirited Away".
But moving is moving, thinking seems to be more important. After watching this movie, the first thing to ask is whether Chihiro and her parents really came to another world and experienced a strange adventure, or all the phantoms that appear before us from beginning to end are just a source of The unprovoked dream of the girl Chihiro?
The answer is not certain. Only in a dream that is not a dream can there be such a story like a fantasy. And this may be the artistic ambition and uniqueness of Spirited Away. The plot setting of "Like a dream but not a dream" is more like what happened in "The Mirror of Flowers", "Nanke's Dream" or "Gulliver's Travels". By chance, mortals encounter bizarre people and bizarre things by accident. , After the passage of time, it seems like a big dream, but it is very real when you think about it. The things of gods, monsters and evil spirits are also reflections of the floating world. The artist only uses the bizarre shell, but his original intention is to depict the absurdity of the real world.
After thinking about it, "Spirited Away" has indeed happened a lot of unimaginable things. For example, how did Chihiro's parents suddenly turn into pigs? Why are people without jobs turned into animals? Why does Granny Tang take the employee's name, and why can't her chubby child walk? Why did the famous "River God" turn into a dirty "God of Rot"? How could a faceless man who started out innocent and innocent suddenly turn into a greedy ogre? What are the people in the oil house working so hard for all day long? And why only those who remember their name can leave safely... Also, why did Bailong help Chihiro, and why did Chihiro save Bailong?
If we seriously consider these issues, it is not difficult to understand Miyazaki's intentions. He is just using the hand of the movie to insinuate Japanese society or all the bizarre human life. The absurd sights Qianxun saw along the way were actually another form of representation of the real world, and the two were essentially the same.
We live in a society full of 'entertainment'. Adults seek constant entertainment to fill the void...why choose 'modern' as the backdrop for the story? After all, there are still many people living in reality. The scary thing is living in the 'now' for too long, people become numb and sometimes forget the way they came. I haven't spoken much about reality, but the people around me are always talking, and everyone has their own set of opinions. Now it's my turn to speak, right?
This is what Hayao Miyazaki said about Spirited Away.
It can be said that "Spirited Away" is a solemn speech by Hayao Miyazaki to "reality". The whole movie points to all the diseases that are common to modern people. For example, Chihiro's parents, who have no reverence for gods, the incarnation of a river that has been polluted by humans and stinks into the sky, the "River God", the "women entrepreneur" who squeezes wealth by manipulating other people's fate, and the woman who lost herself in Vanity Fair. The monster "faceless man", the oil house employee who was insatiably greedy and eventually swallowed by the "faceless man", the "fat child" born by the over-care of a strong parent like Tang Po Po... Whether it is a human, a monster or a god, they all have More or less, it represents and symbolizes some mistakes or original sins that mortals will make.
Of course, there is also Chihiro, the protagonist of our movie. If she hadn't experienced this transformation, she might just be the "stupid, lazy, coquettish" little girl from before.
Now that I stop and look back, it can be said that "Spirited Away" is probably the first Hayao Miyazaki work that makes me feel "very adult" and "very realistic".
The pure and beautiful young world represented by Chihiro, and the adult world represented by Yuba and the people in the oil house, the two met and confronted head-to-head. Snobbish, sinister and bizarre, we were impressed. As the absolute villain boss in the movie, Granny Tang is good at calculating selfishness and has strong spells. Obviously, she doesn't intend to let Qianxun go easily, and there are some unfriendly monsters around her, if it weren't for the white dragon With constant mediation and protection, Chihiro might not be able to get out of Yu Po Po by herself, right? Not to mention turning the parents who turned into pigs back into humans.
The reason why "Spirited Away" is so successful is not only the touching story, the three-dimensional and vivid characters, but more importantly, the profound thoughts with a strong critical color in the film, which are not common in animated films. of. This is probably why many fans regard "Spirited Away" as Hayao Miyazaki's "peak work", right?
It can be said that that summer was unusual for Chihiro, because a lot of things happened, and she treasured many imprints of her growth that she will never forget. I think every audience feels the same way. In the summer scenery along the way from Chihiro, we inadvertently collided with this absurd world, the real and fake ten-way fantasy, and the self in it. projection. It's like looking at yourself with a fun mirror. Although it is a little exaggerated, it is also very real.
The summer that belongs to Chihiro is actually the whole world you pass by.
