Some adults are children

Quoting a movie review I saw, well written!

We look like adults, how many of us still live like children? In the face of problems, you can only escape and never grow up.

"You couldn't change the past, but the future could be a diferent story, and it has start somewhere.... When I watched the title of the film "Little Children", I suddenly realized that all the plots have other meanings.

The four characters with the most space in the film, Sarah, a housewife with a master's degree in literature, BRAD, a housewife who did not get admitted as a lawyer after graduating from law university, but married a beautiful strong woman, just released The child molester Ronnie, the former police officer Larry, who killed a child by mistake and founded the anti-Ronnie organization. Each of these four adults has an unbearable past, a strong dissatisfaction with reality, and a longing for liberation. They experience a redemption throughout the film that may turn them from Little Children into adults. Why is the film called "Children", because when children face difficulties, the first reaction of conditioned reflex is to escape. In the film, when these four people face the plight of life, they all choose to escape rather than face reality. "

Sarah felt that Madame Bovary was fighting, just as she wanted to have an indulgence and an elopement from her boring life. This reminds me that when I watched "Anna Karenina", his entanglement and pain and some factors made me not feel that she should be blamed for her cheating, and even felt that she was fighting and found love. Thinking about some of the negative comments from book friends, I now feel that I may be too "child" and immature like Sarah. Anna is also a parent. Even if she encounters love, she should think about her responsibilities. Some people should let go and let everything return to peace. It's still difficult to define Anna, or maybe that's the case. Anna finally committed suicide by lying on the rails. All those who cheat and choose to run away seem to have no good results (is there any scientific reason for this...?)

In the face of life's boring problems, Sarah also wants to escape. Everyone makes excuses for themselves. Perhaps what everyone should think about is how to solve the problems of the moment in the right way.

    There are too many things to express in the whole film. The most impressive thing is the last words of pedophile Ronnie’s mother to be a good child. Ronnie’s self-governing has been fully realized, and the significance of such a movie is better than a commercial film that only earns the box office. many

Little Children quotes

  • May McGorvey: You're a miracle, Ronnie. We're all miracles. Know why? Because as humans, every day we go about our business, and all that time we know... we all know... that the things we love... the people we love, at any time now can all be taken away. We live knowing that and we keep going anyway. Animals don't do that.

  • Ronald James McGorvey: I just wanted to cool off!
