Later, when I watched "House of Sin", I found that it was the same. She was obviously a girl with principles, courage, and hard work. She was suppressed and degraded by the so-called social rules and eventually destroyed herself. But there are still countless people who are accusing the girl of not being flexible, not knowing the rules of the game, and being "self-inflicted and unable to live".
It seems that we have already decided that we are living in a hierarchical prison cell, that any effort is worthless, any courage is futile, as long as we make a wrong step, everyone will tell you, and there will never be a chance to turn back. Therefore, we can only erect a thick inner wall, find our own position, and then live carefully without thinking of crossing the line.
A bit boring, but stable life.
Then I saw this "Zootopia".
The movie I watched, adults and children alike. Before the opening, the children were the most noisy. After the film started, the children's voices became quieter. The adults who laughed the happiest in the whole movie theater were adults.
Yes, an adult. Because in the eyes of children, reality is a huge fairy tale world, so they just read the story with peace of mind, a good rabbit, a good fox, and finally joined forces to eliminate the big devil, and live happily in the zoo. But adults can always see more and always find more.
If Xing Ye's "Mermaid" tells a story of pure love from an adult's point of view; then "Crazy Zoo" tells the struggle history of adults in a child's way. Stupid rabbits, cunning foxes, energetic newcomers, and old fritters who see through all the rules, this combination is not new in any Hollywood story - "Zootopia" is just to put these old souls back to the audience. Create a new dream.
More importantly, this movie is full of all kinds of cute things, and Disney has exerted its best "cute" power to stir people's desire for "cute". They've always succeeded in doing this, as did the big-eyed bunny in "Super Marines" and "Zootopia".
That "zoo city" is so similar to the city we live in that if you have the heart, you can even put yourself in the right seat. In this city, there is tolerance and joy, and there is unspeakable discrimination and contradiction. Everyone can come here to find a dream, but not everyone can find it. And this city can finally change every individual, but some people are smooth, some people go astray, and some people have the courage not to hit the south wall and not give up, and have been fighting.
The only difference is that it is only in the animation that we are convinced that the fool who is driven by courage and constantly challenged will finally meet the victory with a full head. Only in stories that seem to be shown to children, urban talents are willing to reveal a little bit of their idealism and are willing to believe in the existence of such a utopia.
Life is too hard. If we believe in the possibility of "try everything", we must accept the changes that will occur behind it. Beauty is too fragile, and in many cases, it requires too much strength to support. We may be successful, but most of the time, we'll screw things up, lose face, or lose ourselves completely, and become one-of-a-kind, every "urbanian."
So in reality, there are already many people who don't believe in this beauty at all.
I saw in "The Title of This Book Can't Describe the Content of This Book", the author said that he did not believe in Santa Claus, not because he had not seen it, but because he did not meet anyone who believed in it. Then he asked his daughter if she believed in Santa Claus, if she believed in the Easter Bunny, and his daughter said she believed it—
she said, I'm still young, so I believe in everything. But there are some things that not only children should believe.
That makes life a little more interesting, right?
