Some points outside the plot of the film

[Aesthetic differentiation] I am used to watching the animations of Disney, DreamWorks, and Pixar, and then look at the French clay animation. It is really a completely different feeling. Just like biodiversity, the aesthetics and modeling of animation also need diversity and homogeneity. The style really makes people lose tolerance for all kinds of beauty. In contrast, I think mainland animation should be wary of this problem. The character modeling and animation style are too similar to the model of the American animation giants. Of course, I understand that this is to please the audience’s acceptance. Things that are too stylized cannot be too market-oriented. It is a shortcut to stand on top of American animated films that have already gained market acceptance, but we also have to establish our own words and styles.

[Ideological packaging] Returning to the zucchini life movie itself, it also has a strong French ideological color. The composition of children in the orphanage reflects various problems in French society such as drug abuse, illegal African immigration, alcoholism, etc. Packaging ideology In my opinion, his abilities are moderate and seem implicit, but it is far less natural and smooth than American ideological propaganda.

[Children's Psychology] What makes the film more valuable is that the treatment in many places is very close to the child's psychology. For example, "Dick Explosion" "The children talk about how the little baby is, so the teacher will leave him". In my impression, French children’s literature is very well done. It is not blindly whitewashing the so-called “safe” children’s environment of sunshine, flowers, and smiling faces, but facing the fears, difficulties, and difficulties that children need to deal with by themselves. Solitude and so on.

    Sure enough, it is a sad story under the warm sunshine. Gentle. Clay stop-motion animation, I didn't catch up a year ago, I didn't expect there would be a show today, so I got up early to watch it. When I arrived, I found out that it was a "movie listening" plan specially arranged for the visually impaired and children. Headphones were provided on site, and there were gentle narrations to describe the scene changes and the actions of the characters. It was like a mother telling a bedtime story in her ear. I couldn't help but add one more. Star, very humane care.
