I just finished watching "Dream Travel", formerly known as "Coco", and I was so "hard-hearted" that I cried to tears in the theater.
I think the rustic-looking name of "Dream Hunter" is too low-level. At first glance, combined with the poster, I thought it was an old routine for teenagers to pursue their music dreams. of lost loved ones and memories.
I didn't know much about the country of Mexico before, and I only felt the same "desolate" Mexican roads in some desolate road movies. Fortunately, this film gave me a chance to re-acquaint me with the country of Mexico. The people here can sing, dance, work hard, laugh and laugh, and more importantly, their "day for the dead", also known as the Day of the Dead, is so... gorgeous. Yes, the word splendid cannot be more appropriate. The film gave the most brilliant colors to the Day of the Dead. with golden petals
Flowers cover the Lingtai at home
Even the cemetery looks brightly lit
Not to mention the "undead world of the dead"
Do you feel it? It seems that in the eyes of Mexicans, death is not so terrible. Every year, relatives will turn into undead and come to the house to share food and dance with everyone. All you need to do is spread the petals at the door and enshrine his photos at home, that’s all.
However, something as simple as this can sometimes be difficult. When no one in the world of the living enshrines your picture, you cannot return to the world on the Day of the Dead. What's even more cruel is that when the world of the living completely forgets you, you will disappear completely, not even a skeleton will be left behind. because:
Forgetting is the last goodbye.
This is the central idea of the article.
During the viewing process, I really lost my mind several times, because of my own personal experience, I may have more say in this topic. In the years from high school to the present, I have lost several close relatives, some of whom have left us because of a cruel accident, which is completely unbearable. The loss of my loved ones was a huge blow to me, because the process of leaving was so painful, and I was always worried that they would not find their way home. So when I saw the guiding path paved with golden petals in the film, I couldn't hold back the tears. Now that these years have passed, those departed relatives really seem to be forgotten by us. Except for the annual tomb sweeping and their death anniversary, those of us who are alive don't seem to think about them deliberately anymore. Sometimes when talking to my mother, I would still say, "It would be great if XX was still there..." After a sigh, we can continue to live as usual. Time is such a cruel thing, no one's departure will stop the world from running. So what can we do? Just like the theme the film wants to express, live well, and don't forget them.
China also has its own "Day of the Dead", which is the Zhongyuan Festival, the "Ghost Festival" in the seventh lunar month. But unlike the joy of the Mexicans, the Chinese Ghost Festival is depressing and painful, and no Chinese would dare to display the lights on such a day. Take myself as an example, since I became an adult, I always go with my dad when my family burns paper money for my relatives. In the dark night, my dad and I stood alone, watching the flames burn silently, I don't know what my dad was thinking, I usually express my longing for them and hope that they can bless everyone next day. Therefore, people from different countries have different ways of expressing their feelings. It cannot be said that the way of the Mexicans is good, but the way of our Chinese is not good, but this film is enough to inspire me. Because, if there really is a world of undead, then our thoughts can really be conveyed, and they can live well, right? So, learn that Mexicans take death a little less.
Say something off topic. Although there are a lot of Spanish in it, I'm really not unfamiliar at all... Because MF's Gloria always says "Hola!" Although Gloria is Colombian, South American is no different! ! Gloria also has a strong sense of family, and she often has various relatives and friends come over to make cameos. I feel that she and the great-great-great-grandmother who hates because they are very similar in personality, they are both so agile, haha.
That's all, it's a rare masterpiece, and our family will always be our most precious treasure.
