Perhaps at the beginning, we already understood that the princes and princesses in fairy tales are all illusions. But even so, we don't want to doubt whether little ET really exists, like My Neighbor Totoro and Flower Fairy, Doraemon and Smurf. It's just that we "choose" to forget. Life is bluntly split and combined by words and sentences, letter words, formulas, and focal coordinates, and we are forced to grow up in a hurry. Childhood is like a hometown we can't go back to.
We will inevitably complain that our lives have not changed, we will inevitably lose out because of ridicule and scolding, and we will inevitably miss our childhood. At least we can make tears flow. We wear thick armors to prevent injuries and at the same time prevent sunlight from penetrating in. Suddenly looking back, in those forgotten times, we are immersed in our purest fantasy; in that forgotten world, we once lived our best partner.
This is a movie that evokes our childhood memories. The little Elliott took in the lost little alien ET. Although they were very different in appearance, they all had a kind, sensitive, childlike innocence who longed for love. Even if the language is not clear, some kind of magical telepathy is established between them, and this can only be done by the most innocent children.
Growing up does not mean bidding farewell to childhood. It does not mean losing your fragile qualifications. It does not mean you have no right to dream. It does not mean you have to become hard and complicated. Those soft emotions, such as love, sadness, and compassion, are actually the most precious part of our lives. Even though time has strengthened the beard of your jaw, as long as you keep your childlike innocence, you can continue to believe-as long as simple kindness can become strong.
