From the beginning, we are all children

I couldn't hold back my tears when I saw Sarah crying out to my dad at the end, because it touched the softest part of my heart, and I believe it is the feeling of most people.

I think a film can be said to be a good film if it can express the emotions it wants to express. What the movie conveys to us is the pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty in the world. The real elegance is not the magnificent appearance, but the kind and brave heart. I don’t know when it started, we no longer have wild imaginations, and gradually forget how to experience the beauty of life. Maybe as the headmistress said, the cruel and dirty reality will not sympathize with you. I also think so, the world is cold and ruthless, but the little princess said, I don't believe it. Yes, there are unspeakable things in this world if you believe in them, but you don’t if you don’t believe in them. Why do we always think this world is so cold? Why can't we look at the world with kindness? The so-called "don't forget the original intention" is what I want to remember is the yearning for the world and the imagination of things when we were children. Bacon said that if the human heart can be moved by benevolence, be content with providence, and revolve around the axis of truth, then the world will be no different from heaven. In modern society, materials are extremely abundant, transportation is extremely convenient, and communication can reach the world in a moment, but why do we always feel unhappy in life? I think it is because of our excessive self-righteousness that we have less reverence for nature and less imagination of things, so what we see is only what we see. If we can stop treating the world with cold eyes, Then I believe that the world will also open its arms for us. One thought of heaven, one thought of hell, how do you think about it?

    Every girl is a little princess

  • Albina 2022-03-26 09:01:11

    Children's movies, the story is of course "as long as you have hope, it will always work" and "always believe in your inner strength", combined with the colonial background and a little exotic mysterious magic factor (but the Indian prince in the story looks like It is Avatar, and the skill is Sun Wukong. There are too many elements). The plot line is simple but tortuous. The little princess suddenly lost her father, and her treatment in the girls' school also plummeted. Suddenly, across the road, she unexpectedly met her father who returned from the battlefield but completely lost his memory. The tension of the plot was directly full. The character setting is more complicated than a fairy tale with a clear distinction between good and evil. Even the villain's evil principal will hide behind the door and feel sad when confronted by the little princess' questioning (compared to her, the role of the villain in the child is endless). In the heavy rain, when the little princess was about to be pulled away (the three or four police officers who arrested a little girl were probably just to increase the tension), the father suddenly regained his memory and called out his daughter's name. It was a happy ending like a fairy tale. The set is gorgeous and beautiful, the photography is exquisite, and the color palette is close to the colorful cartoon (but the scene in the fairy tale is too heavy in the studio).
