I have always known that "Goodbye Firefly" is very touching. Many men also left tears for little girls. I haven't watched it for a long time. I was afraid that my tear ducts would burst. Looking at it again, I have seen Elvis' lewdness, Chinchilla's cuteness, and friends crying and shouting to let me watch "Goodbye Firefly", I can't resist.

The beginning of Studio Ghibli slowly appeared, and the familiar feeling came out like that. I didn't watch the movie first, but just listened to Hisaishi's music. The beautiful scenery and the brutal war are all unbearable, but it's not that long after watching. The little girl didn't need to die, and the brother didn't need to be so sad. Although the culprit of all this is war, but My brother also has certain responsibilities, let me tell you slowly:

1. People have to wink and live in other people's homes, basically they are free to eat and live, then do the work, handle the housework, and say that the children of poor families He had been in charge early, but their family was not a poor family after all, so why did he not wince from an officer's family? Even if you don't want to, you have to pretend;
2. How can people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves. But my brother just doesn't understand this truth. Although my aunt is a bit snobby, she will give him food and shelter. Although she may not be able to eat enough, she will live comfortably. Since she has the money, she will slowly give it to the snobbish aunt. , how can I live a peaceful life for a few days?
3. Since my aunt is snobbish, and I don’t have much money, I can find a way to supplement my family, or go to the fields with my aunt to do farm work. 4. Finally, do
n't be petty, there is a reason for my aunt's cynicism. During the war, everyone's life was not very good, of course, their closest people are the most important, and there is no place to live when they go out. If you don't have anything to eat, then grit your teeth and bite the bullet and live here first, don't be angry for that inexplicable face or manliness.

To sum up, although war is guilt and human feelings are indifferent, at some point you have to let go of the so-called backbone in order to live a better life. Anyway, China has Goujian and can try hard, I am afraid that Japanese friends don’t understand this!

    Don’t talk about war factors, don’t mention whether this movie is brainwashed, just talk about your brother’s various faults: you are a war orphan, but who was able to raise two more mouths at that time? If you don’t help with things and mess up the room, take your sister around to play and make your aunt scolded, and want to eat well for doing nothing, is it wrong for your aunt to let the working children eat more? She can't eat better than her brother and sister! My sister might eat a little worse and be a little wronged in staying there, but she would never die so miserably!

    As the author of "The Criticism of Firefly", in fact, after a few years, my views on this film have actually become calmer...
