Emotions do not have to be placed

The portrayal of life and death is not the point, but the film is indeed sad, but it can't tell why it is sad. Maybe this is the emotion that the audience has nowhere to put! Henry is the main thread. He symbolizes beautiful things and pure humanity, but at the same time, he is full of contradictions. Our emotions are moved by him, and our body is yearned for, and there are times when he is powerless. We always want the most direct reunion, and the film tells us that life is sometimes twists and turns, and the truth is sometimes looming, but this will not change the essence of a good life! Emotions do not necessarily have to be placed somewhere, it is also peaceful to wander around and move with one's heart!

    This kind of setting should be looking for Wes Anderson. In fact, Colin Trevorrow lost his job in Star Wars 9 because of this film is quite wrong, this film has been saved a lot by his scheduling, but unfortunately the script is really bad and can't be saved. Giacchino wrote less blockbusters and more sketches like this

    The performance of the two young actors was amazing. I really liked the feeling of the first half hour of the movie. The scene of Henry's death was also very heart-wrenching.

The Book of Henry quotes

  • Sheila: Hank.

    Henry Carpenter: It's actually Henry. I think you'd be able to retain at least one simple name somewhere beyond that haircut.

    Sheila: Nice goggles. They go well with your misshapen head.

  • Susan Carpenter: We are not murdering the police commissioner and that is final!
