Overall still like it. Four and a half stars. I deducted half of it and felt that the rhythm was too slow at first to not know what to say.
He knows kids. They don't know everything. They understand something. They see everything.
The difficulty of filming children so well makes me feel that this film is more like how to shoot children's performance art.
Watching it reminds me of my childhood. There is no mobile phone and no elevator, and all the children are leaning downstairs and shouting. The yard always reverberated with various sounds calling people to come downstairs to play. As long as there are children, trees, puddles and grass are paradise. Children don't know what they are playing, but they are just having fun. What are you playing? We just play. Go downstairs to play by yourself, and go upstairs to eat by yourself when the time comes, just like a domestic dog. Our generation of only children doesn't know what loneliness is. In the beginning, there are no siblings and parents are very busy, so they are proficient in getting along with themselves from an early age. I always say that the last generation with "wildness" is probably the post-90s generation. I haven't heard the yard calls for people to come downstairs and the kids playing "get people" since I grew up.
The power flowing in the huge ant nest of dilapidated stagnation and failure is warm. The manager who protects everyone silently with a cold face and a warm heart, who has nothing to do to exchange her body for money, but has never been angry with her daughter, blames her failure on the young single mother who gave her all her love, and the swearing neighbor grandmother.
Little girls are that kind of kid. Looks like he doesn't care about anything but sees everything. How can a child who grows up like this not see it? She just doesn't say it. Then the so-called bear children can also pop up such philosophical thoughts that do not match their age
The whole film was touched several times, the little candle and the rubbing fireworks that accompany my daughter to celebrate her friend's birthday,
Willem Dafoe's 45 dollars and the paint bucket he knocked off because he was keenly aware of a pedophile, and an adult who must grow up in order to live quarreled over 45 dollars...
In order to redeem their souls, the children in front of them can't hear the quarrel of the reality behind them, but they can only see the pictures in the TV series. We all grow from children to adults.
I had a baby and I knew that my mother was so good at doing this, she might be a moth to society. Waste that does not create value but consumes materials and air. Not to mention the fact that Wei Han had to leave this child behind if he didn't protect himself well in the first place, and so on. Now that she is a mother, she has taken the responsibility on her shoulders, even if it is far beyond her own ability. But she didn't get overwhelmed by life, didn't blame the environment, and didn't push all this to her daughter. The way she plays and laughs with her daughter is more a good mother than many people in real life who are better than her who can accompany their children and can't put down their mobile phones at all.
All she gave her children were the joyful laughter and love that she inhaled and outputted after the negative reality of the pressure.
In the final farewell scene, the girl is an acting genius. Weak but hot. In that "paradise" next to the real paradise. There are weak and hot lives. very nice.
Florida light and shadow is really good
