Because of love we exist

Good animation works are not just for children. This time, "Dream Pursuit" makes us realize that animation, besides bringing joy to children, can also touch the hearts of adults and make them feel like children.

MiG, a boy who grew up in a family of shoemakers, loved music since childhood, but his family banned music because MiG's great-great-grandfather abandoned his family for music. As a result, this family has become a place that music cannot reach. Miguel started a struggle with his family for his dream.

The plot of the movie is actually not too new. The little boy MiG crossed life and death unexpectedly and came to the afterlife world. He went through various twists and turns to return to the world, and achieved harmony between his dream and his family. The storylines are all the old routines that we are familiar with, but the film has a strong sense of rhythm, turning every time it is time to turn, grasping the emotions of the audience tightly, allowing the audience to follow the plot of the film down. Although this show is not a musical, music is also a theme of it, and it is also a highlight in the play. Original music, enthusiastic Latin style, incorporates a lot of native Mexican elements, so the storyline is old-fashioned. , but it does not affect the film's high score, and everyone can distinguish a film that tells a story with heart.

The picture of the movie is very bright and bright, and the whole atmosphere of watching the movie is relatively relaxed. It is also suitable to take the old and young to watch. In the film, a bridge of petals of marigolds connects the two worlds of Yin and Yang. Think about the legendary Naihe Bridge in China. Although there are some differences in the performance of some elements, they reach the same goal through different paths, and the expressions are different, but the core is the same. With love and care, the deceased is still alive, no different from when he was alive.

There has always been a saying that a person will die three times. Once a physical death, once his funeral, his social identity, and a last time, the death of the last person who remembered him, he died completely. This statement is well illustrated in the film. In the world of ghosts, everyone can still sing and dance, but when no one remembers him, he disappears completely into a puff of smoke.

We do the same with loved ones who have passed away, because of love, they are still there, "living in the heart". The deceased has passed away, but it is still alive in the hearts of those close to him. And our memories are frozen in the years they passed away. Why is the daughter COCO more vicissitudes than her father? Because his father died when he was young, he is still young in everyone's memory.

And for dreams and family, how should we choose? The music that MiG pursues is a family taboo. We are not unfamiliar with "the bondage of love". Compared with westernized education, China is more likely to let children give up their dreams in the name of love. Your area of ​​interest is often despised by your family. "It's all for your own good", too many people are restrained in the name of love. Is it to pursue the dream bravely or to compromise with love? The end of the film is a big joy, but the reality is not so. Whether to be brave or not is also a question worthy of our consideration. Because life is not a movie, when faced with a dream, there is no right or wrong whether to chase or give up for love. Probably what you can accept is the best result.

The film is called "COCO", the name of Miguel's grandmother. She is the protagonist of the whole film. In the picture, she always talks about "Dad" when she appears. As Dad said, the song "Remember me" that resounded through the streets was actually written to Coco. The Chinese translation of the film, however, is called "Dream-hunting Travel Notes". The young boy MiG is the protagonist, and the theme of dreams seems to be more prominent. So I can't help but wonder, is this reflected in our land to a certain extent, and everyone unconsciously ignores the love that is preserved in their hearts, so is this simple animation more impressed?

    Disney's animated films in recent years have become more and more frantic in terms of art settings and details, and the plots are still too routine, and this one is even more routine so that every plot can be guessed. Even so, at the end, I almost cried and fainted in my seat. Believe me, if you have a relative you want to reconcile with, or you want to improve your indifference, take him to watch this movie!
