Who will melt your frozen heart

The movie "The Snow Queen" I'm going to analyze today is the first movie that moved me in 2014. I will use this inspiration to talk about some of my superficial views.
A little abnormality of my sister, like many families, occasionally there will be "freaks" (different from ordinary children), in fact, this is not a very big thing, but having a strong fear of "abnormality" is the problem, This is especially prevalent among some traditional and socially established adults. Then they sealed her up in the name of protection. Later, her abnormality became a topic of "taboo" in the family. In real life, some families have similar problems, such as the divorced sister, an aunt who is mentally ill, or an uncle who has been in prison, etc. When a family has taboo topics, a gap between family members is created, and the "problem people" are marginalized. At the same time, it was set in the minds of other members unconsciously that some things are bad, some things cannot be done, and some actions are absolutely not allowed. And these taboos will slowly imprison a person's heart and alienate the relationship between relatives and friends. In order to maintain the face of the family, she had to maintain a "normal" or even "perfect" illusion on the surface. This process is the most painful, because this kind of pain can only be experienced by herself and cannot be shared with others.
But the paper can't wrap the fire, and one day, the so-called "fox tail" will be exposed. At this time, if they encounter some snobbish, prejudiced evaluations, even in rare cases, they will deeply hurt their hearts. In the movie, the queen is regarded as a "monster", only the diplomat with the head of a roe. However, the long-term isolation from the outside world will greatly reduce her ability to test reality, and she will be extremely distrustful of relationships, so even a few voices will make her think that the whole world is spurning her. She ran away!

After the grief passed, she would rather renounce this world rather than live with fear, and at this moment her inner strength was ignited.
The theme song expresses this mood very well. Go your own way and let him go!
When my sister did everything at once, she had to take into account the fact that a lady became a wild and flamboyant queen. It was the first time she woke up and began to accept herself for the first time, at least she thought so. But at this time, she can only build her own fortress, stay in the narcissistic fantasy, still trapped, isolated from others, even those who love her.

Speaking of which, we must mention the influence of fashion culture on us. Now cosmetics, beauty and plastic surgery advertisements are flying all over the sky, and every advertisement slogan is filled with lines such as creating a "perfect woman" and making a "woman shine" and so on. These so-called beauty are the shackles of beauty. Even if women say it's not their will, it's the way this society tends, men's prejudice, so women can only do this. The vanity of loving beauty and money is understandable within an acceptable range, but if it goes to the extreme, it becomes fetishism, which is alienation. And there is another kind of beauty in the world, a kind of beauty that really comes from the heart and natural harmony, that kind of feeling the freedom of life, the surging of inner strength, that kind of high-spirited beauty. This beauty is vivid and alive. And that kind of beauty that relies on cosmetics and botulinum toxin is the beauty of plastic flowers. (The mechanism of Botox is not to paralyze our facial muscles and nerves, reduce dynamic wrinkles, and turn into a beautiful zombie face). So beautiful and dignified is to put the shackles.

It has been very difficult for my sister, and few people can make such a decision. In reality, the reason why many people's entanglements and psychological troubles linger, such as a person who wants to get out of a dead marriage, but is not willing to give up the huge economic loss of divorce or does not want to destroy his public image. Fame and fortune are shackles here.
But it's not enough to let go of these, there is the last level, which is her own. The so-called not really accepting herself, because although she now thinks she is "good" and "normal", she still thinks that others don't think so (this is the "projection" of a typical psychological defense mechanism), but she is now rejecting others. In the movie, my sister builds her own ice palace. In reality, many people build their own spiritual fortress, which is needed when they are still weak, for a person who is powerless to the outside world, such as a child. But if an adult continues this way, in the long run, he will only end himself.
At this time, the only support for my sister is her external spiritual strength. Accepting her and helping her is also an arduous task and a huge sacrifice! So why is there such a profession as a psychologist? Because there is a lack of such beautiful friends or relatives in real life, they often have their own problems, and it is difficult for them to protect themselves. Therefore, the counselor acts as a substitute for good parents, good friends and good teachers, disturbing the entire system and improving the strength and psychological quality of the client and those around him.
There are no evil witches or perverted rivals in this film, and this is precisely the deeper point, those ordinary people who are dominated by vanity and power, and who are full of prejudice and arbitrary, these people can be seen everywhere in life, these talents is the real external resistance.
In addition, this film is more in-depth and instructive than the usual fairy tales. It is not the prince who saved the princess, but the ability of the princess to learn to love. Many people think that love can save a person. This is often a romantic fantasy. The reality is just the opposite. For some people who are in trouble, only when she really gets out of the trouble, her inner freedom, and her personality are perfect, love will shine. Otherwise, the so-called love will only make her fall deeper and deeper and repeat the same mistakes, so those failed marriages often have already planted the seeds of disaster from the very beginning.

    Adhering to the fine tradition of Disney animation, its songs are really great, occasionally reminding people of last year's [Les Miserables], because the song and the narrative are perfectly integrated. Although this is still a story about love, the final processing of the story is still a bit unexpected, and it is much more interesting than expected. This change also makes the theme of the movie warmer. The greatest affection and acceptance of the true self, no wonder it was accused of being gay. ★★★★

    The ice and snow world inside is really beautiful, and the special effects are great! The story is also very touching, and the songs inside are also very nice! Aisha finally understood that only love can melt the snow and save Anna and save herself.
