Although it is a live-action version, the details are still close to the anime. Therefore, you don't have to care about the wolf boy Mao Gree's upright walking and use of wisdom. When all the animals around you can speak, can you really care about this? Compared with the animated version in 1967, "Fantasy Forest" more accurately restores the original style, and the mystery of the novel itself is the focus of performance. At the same time, it is also taking care of loyal audiences who have seen the old version, trying to maintain the unique elements of Disney's works. At the same time, in order to make the mirror image more precise and unified, the main creator of the film did not adopt the method of integrating computer special effects and real forests, but used computer special effects to build the entire virtual forest. Therefore, the magnificent and lush virgin forest on the screen is not drawn from any location, but completely drawn by the computer.
The protagonist of the story, the wolf boy Mao Geli, was Neil Sisi, who won the audition from thousands of people. The director praised him for his seduction beyond his age. His performance in the movie is also really bright. Different from live actors, this type of play is often performed by actors playing one-man roles more often. Most of the on-screen counterparts we see are processed and synthesized in the later stage. Of course, when you are filming, you can play with your opponent, but when you see a person imagine him as a bear and a tiger, the performance itself has become a level of difficulty. However, the children's "belief" is the highest. The truth of a child's performance comes from believing that everything he hears or is acting is true, and an adult needs to convince himself and use his acting skills to make it seem real.
The beginning and end of the film adopt a "chasing training", the failure at the beginning and the success at the end, the process in the middle is the growth of Mao Geli and the progress of the story. As a human child, Mao Geli was raised by a pack of wolves, his "godfather" was a black panther, and his best friend was a bear. On the surface, he seems to be at peace with the whole environment, but there are always some places that are out of tune. In order to keep him from being too out of touch with the whole environment, Black Panther and Wolf King both forbid him to use human tools. It's a protection and a hint. As long as Mowgli isn't so "different" and Tiger Shelly Khan won't find him so easily, he's safe. On the other hand, it implies that although the black panther and the wolf king nurture and protect Mao Geli, deep down, they also resist and resist human beings.
Brown Bear Balu is the main maker of laughs and cuteness in the film. He is a little chatty and a little stubborn, but kind and generous. Under the suppression of the wolf king and the black panther, the human side of Mao Geli was forcibly restrained, and he got the greatest display and inspiration in the process of helping Balu. The acquaintance with Balu turned Maugli from a wolf child who could only recite the laws of the forest to a child who could sing happily. He used his power to help Baloo, and also made himself a step further in the direction of man.
The tiger takes revenge personally, but the gorilla king Louis has countless subordinates. The scene of two monkeys escorting Mao Geli is exactly the same as the capture and escorting of prisoners by humans. The orangutan king who wanted to get the "safflower" seduced Mao Geli in the most human-like way, with wealth, status, and food, and his appearance was also different. The towering palace, the piles of fruits and treasures, a giant hand stretched out in the darkness, the looming figure, the earnest and seductive words, everything is full of human hypocrisy, darkness, greed and cunning. Unscrupulous action before the goal is reached, because greed will eat its own fruit, is also the arrangement for this type of character in too many TV movies.
The characters on the screen, except for Mao Geli, are all hairy dumplings. However, the deep perseverance of the wolf king, the gentleness and bravery of the adoptive mother of the white wolf, the guard behind the strictness of the "godfather" of the black panther, the honesty and kindness of the brown bear Balu, and the tyranny and insidiousness of the tiger Shirley are not false and perfunctory because of Mao Tuanzi's face. Every image is vivid and detailed, and even the small animals playing soy sauce are unforgettable - flying flying squirrels, peacocks grabbing branches, porcupines counting stones (is it a porcupine?), watching Balu cheating hair Gree's pangolins, squirrels, and wild boars robbed a few cuties of Mao Gree's fruit. From the splendor of these little supporting characters who played very little in the movie, you can know how much the main creator of the movie put on the protagonist. .
When the film was promoted, the voice of "Sister Widow" was one of the highlights. Therefore, it is recommended that you watch the original version, because Sister Widow's voice is really nice! The only regret is that this snake does not appear for a long time, but just a few minutes is enough to make you experience the strongest visual impact in this movie. When it stares at Mao Geli from the screen, you will have a feeling that it is actually staring at you. The contradiction between the creepy but indulging in the soft and seductive voice will definitely impress you.
In the film, the forest law recited by the wolves many times is one of the centers of the film. "The power of the wolves gathers in the lone wolf, and the power of the lone wolf comes from the wolves." The power of an individual is limited, but after unity and cohesion But it is powerful. When the heart is scattered, the shroud of fear has nowhere to hide, and the enemy can easily break through it. When the heart is united, even if you are as strong as the tiger Shelly Khan, you will not be able to get a bargain in front of the much weaker wolves; another central store of the movie is "being yourself", if you are human, don't like a wolf. Wolves have the fighting style of wolves, and people have the fighting style of human beings. At the end of the film, the black panther, who has never been allowed to "be a man", finally said to him, "You are not a wolf, you should fight like a human!
" , sat on the elephant, the strongest in the jungle who "created the forest". This is not only an affirmation of human wisdom, but also a demonstration of the harmonious coexistence of human wisdom and nature and overcoming difficulties. The world is changing, and so is every life in the world. Individuals follow the world with change, and the world changes itself accordingly. The law of the forest is also the law of the world.
The law of the forest is acceptance and tolerance, cohesion and harmony.
