As each of us grows older, we have gradually discarded the purest things in our childhood hearts. We are accustomed to the cold reality and no longer believe in purity, kindness, miracles and perfection. Instead, we think that they are all young illusions. And naive. From the protagonist, the little boy, we can see the moment when our childish heart was suspicious for the first time in childhood. It is at that moment that we clearly realize that growth will mean losing something beautiful and intangible forever. Although they cannot be touched, they can definitely be felt. What "Polar Express" is about to portray is that moment, the bifurcation of innocence and mature accident. Every child has his own choice, one is to close his heart, and the other is to learn to believe that there is no age and restrictions.
Just like the conductor stamped "Believe" on the boy's return ticket, this movie is more like a gift for adults to numb their hearts. Of course, petty bourgeois like me who are easily moved by Hollywood trash are more likely to burst into tears at that moment. And comrades with firm convictions who despise the invasion of capitalist culture, of course, are still invincible. It is particularly worth mentioning that the theme song sung by the little girl and the little boy in the film is very nice, and it was later discovered that this song won the best original song award of this year's Golden Globe Awards.
I have to admit that what attracted me at first was the strong lineup of the film. Oscar winner Tom Hanks and director Robert Zammicis, who have collaborated on "Forrest Gump" and "Remains of a Deserted Island", have joined hands again this time. I believe you will laugh out loud when you see the conductor in the film, because he created it with Tom Hanks as a model and dubbed it himself. The Chinese version of the original novel by Chris van Ellsberg will also be published in the near future.
Although I have always dismissed the film’s production technology and other aspects, I have to admire the film’s breathtaking computer animation technology. The characters and scenes of the film adopt the effect of imitating oil paintings, everything is like a dream, and it is surprisingly clear and real, giving people a beautiful feeling. The five-time Oscar winner Ken Reelston under the Sony Graphics Image Operation Company and Jerome Chen, who was nominated for the 2000 Oscar Award, used the latest motion capture system launched by the Image Operation Company-Performance Capture to combine this The fascinating fairy tales are presented to the audience through lifelike computer animations. This revolutionary technology enables actors’ real-life performances to be accurately reflected on the expressions and movements of digital characters through computers. Director Robert Zammicis said proudly, "Those images have an extraordinary quality, between dreams and reality, and they really capture the mystery of a sleepless Christmas Eve."
