★★★★ (Four stars is a perfect score) It is rare that a movie that won an academy award is not shown in Chicago at all, but "The Kid and the Eagle" is like that. If the name of this film sounds unfamiliar, then I should add that "The Kid and the Eagle" won the British Film Academy Award in 1971 and...

In the mining area where the class is solidified, the eagle accompanies the boy. The eagle is a symbol of freedom, and the boy is the representative of the loners in the deformed society; the eagle is bound by the ankle, while the child is bound by the solidified class, poverty and...

The dark mines quietly swallowed up youth, and the cold classrooms imprisoned childhood indiscriminately. Under the blue sky, dreams put wings on the lonely soul, and on the quiet hills, reality quietly bury the free body. Thin Billy held a touch of disillusionment in his hand, and hot tears stubbornly shed the boy's face. Before he understood the value of Jieyu, he had been forced to surrender; he had not yet understood the meaning of starting, and he had already begun to wander. Ken Roach used a child's perspective to reflect the loss and loss of the entire British society at that time. The coexistence of criticism and compassion was an important milestone in neo-realistic films. In the film, the emotional progression and communication between people is not the person-to-person or the person-to-object in other children’s films, but the emotional link between people through animals, killing two birds with one stone. It does not highlight the warm temperament of other children's films, nor does it have the pet perspective like other animal films. It is restrained and true, and it is unique in the same type of film. To some extent, if you want to make a good children's film or a youth film, this is a must-watch.

If Ken Loach goes down this path, it would be good, at least it can cater to my aesthetics..........The imprisoned go to imprison people (eagle), which is equivalent to the oppressed to oppress people again, in fact You can also understand it as the spirit of Ah Q...
