The Secret of Kells--Full Of Mystery And Religion
Aric 2022-06-17 15:35:14
The story is based on a scripture in Ireland, full of mystery and religion. The plot can be briefly described as the magic pen Ma Liang meets the white-haired girl and defeats the gluttonous snake. "Without firm belief, no matter how strong the wall is, it is still a pile of rotten wood." This verse cannot be digested quickly by us in the era of fast food. Honestly speaking, no matter how compact the plot is and how profound the meaning of this animation is, in fact, it can't surpass the huge shock brought by the suffocating soundtrack and outrageous pictures. The whole film is like a poem, suitable for viewing in an art gallery rather than a movie theater. It's just Oscar's taste to squeeze out "Mary and Marx" for an Oscar nomination.
