I remember reading a very long new fairy tale, linking the most famous fairy tales such as Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Cinderella, etc., but there is no absolute good and evil, the original Sleeping Beauty because of the prince who changed his heart. From love to hate, it became the stepmother who framed the pure princess in the next story. When I saw it, I felt creative and novel on the one hand, and sighed on the other hand. The pen of an adult, how sad and pitiful is behind the blackened beautiful girl. "Maleficent" reminded me of this sad story once again. In the process of watching this movie, people will invariably stand on the dark side, cursing and resenting the stupidity and ugliness of human beings. I think this movie perfectly interprets an "adult fairy tale". In fairy tales written for children, there is always a clear distinction between good and evil, there is no mutual transformation, and goodness always conquers evil; in the world of adults, perhaps the boundaries between good and evil are no longer clear, there is no so-called absolute good and evil, and some are just every personal last resort. This film provides us with another adult perspective to re-examine the evil in the eyes of children. But is there any good in an adult world where good and evil are confused? Of course there is. The beauty is reflected in the "Kiss of True Love" in this film. Maybe it wants to tell people that in the complicated world, there will always be love that transcends hatred, justice that is higher than personal grievances, warmth that grows in the cold, and light that germinates in the dark. The end of complexity, deceit and hatred is still there. You can find a beautiful, pure and shining human nature. The seemingly ordinary narrative of the movie is actually a process of breaking first and then establishing. It first brutally shreds the fantasy of true love between men and women in the original fairy tale, telling you: don't be silly, welcome to the complex and cold real world. And then unexpectedly gave the kiss of true love another meaning, soothing you: what about the real world? Can't it continue to be beautiful? Isn't Maleficent's transformation from good to evil to good again, just like human growth? From the love and trust of the world to the brokenness of the original pure faith, after more experiences, he regained his true self and confidence in the world. From "Maleficent", I read a message: The world is not beautiful enough, but we still have too many reasons to love it.
