But he is also a child. A child who refuses to grow up, is never heartless, happy, and can only cry because he can't stick to his shadow.
One day, one snowy night, Peter Pan came to Luoxue's window, and the three children found him. They are two innocent and cute little children; and she is Wendy, a girl who is about to bid farewell to her childhood. When Peter Pan talked about the spirit guarding him, Qin Ke, Wendy looked incredulous: "But there is no such thing." He warned her: "Don't say that... Every time someone says, a spirit will fall. Die." He persuaded them and let him live on the island. They are carrying through the sky of the real world, the stars are all over the sky, beautiful and gorgeous.
Peter Pan is a happy and transparent child. Everything in his life seems to be only related to happiness. Maybe we will find it incredible, but don't forget, our childhood is just like him, brilliant as sunshine and happiness as flowers. Unlike him, we will not refuse to grow up, we will say goodbye to childhood, and then embark on a new stage of life, childhood memories will be blurred and disappear. Just as Peter Pan has no memory of troubles. We become adults, so we no longer remember the beauty of childhood.
"The ice is melting, the sun is coming out, and the flowers are blooming." There is a dangerous person named Captain Hook in Neverland. He raised a prosthetic hand made of an iron hook and said in a slightly excited and cruel tone: "He's back." He is a calm, wise, sinister and cunning character. He directed the pirates under his command against the children led by Peter Pan, treating those children as enemies.
Perhaps we will also become people like Captain Hook. He is an adult who completely bid farewell to his childhood and understands the rules of the game in the adult world. He hates children like Peter Pan and regards him as an enemy only because Peter Pan deeply violated his logic as an adult. He is not a bad person, but their positions are different, and they can only stand on opposite sides. He is just an adult who has wiped out his childlike innocence. A sad, realistic, and not really happy adult.
Wendy is a reconciliation between Captain Hook and Peter Pan, a compromise between the opposites. She is in a transitional period of growing confusion and struggle. The rules of the adult game are beginning to become clear in her world, and Captain Hook’s philosophy can be understood by her; and continuing to deal with things like a child is no longer the best solution she thinks, so with Peter Pan Although they love each other, there is a barrier that is difficult to compromise. She obeys her inner judgment of things. Captain Hook took advantage of her to let her join the ranks of pirates. However, although the adult world has its own reasons, it is not as simple as Wendy imagined. Captain Hook poisoned Peter Pan's medicine and caught Wendy and the children on board.
Qin Ke drank the poison in place of Peter Pan, losing her light. At this time, it seems that everything is irretrievable. You can only choose to believe in miracles, in fairy tales, and in elves. Peter Pan shouted loudly: "I should believe in fairies! I do! I do!" Everyone resonated.
Perhaps it was Peter Pan who finally discovered that he also had something he could not lose. He was not careless, he had love, but he never looked up, hiding in his heartless shell. And in the end, he faced all of this, confronted Captain Hook's provocation.
"She is leaving you, your Wendy is leaving you. Why is she staying there? What can you give her? You are incomplete. Let's take a look at the future, you fly to Wendy's window ...And then? The window is closed."
"I will open it, and I will call her name."
"But she can't hear your voice anymore."
The conversation between the two was very simple, but again Very abstract. The fact is that Wendy will grow up and then separate from Peter Pan, because their intersection is only in the moment, but the future will drift away.
At this moment, Wendy's attitude is particularly important. Here, Wendy gave a very intriguing answer. She gave Peter Pan a kiss. This kiss is the kiss of the child, the expression of her innocence and beautiful feelings, the last confession she gave, and it also means the next farewell to him. Wendy insists on her philosophy, that is: I like you, but I still want to grow up.
These three people are the key puppets that pull the clues of the plot. In the play, their contradictions and collisions, understanding and denial, are reflected in repeated trials, verifications and questions on the theme of growth.
Everyone will say goodbye to childhood, is this really good? Are you in the adult world really happy? Is refusing to grow up really the best way to solve the problem? The film uses childish, straightforward plots and conflicts, but throws us a series of deep thinking about life forms.
After walking for too long on the road of life, we no longer believe in fairy tales, because fairy tales do not exist in the real world. Fairy tales are true only in the world of children.
Every child is an angel sent by God, innocent, beautiful, and happy, just as transparent as the trembling dewdrops on the rose petals. The real world is a big dye vat, it sends you frustration and sadness to you.
Believing in fairy tales is really a very ideal thing. Even if we are no longer young, we can still keep a space in our hearts for fairy tales. For each of us ordinary people, we certainly cannot be Peter Pan, because growth is an irresistible advance, and a life like Captain Hook is too realistic and cruel. Perhaps, like Wendy is the most correct way to deal with it.
