"None of you can remember, but I do remember well. The moon was above us, and it was huge: when we looked at the moon, it was like day, it was a cream-colored light, and the huge moon seemed to kill us. Overwhelmed and crushed. At the new moon, it rolled in the air like a black umbrella carried by the wind. The tip of the crescent moon hung so low that it seemed to penetrate the reef and let the moon anchor. - Calvino " The Distance of the Moon" Every time I marvel at Pixar's magnificent and fantastic imagination, I can always find some sources of inspiration. It turns out that everyone is on the shoulders of giants. This contemporary Italian writer, the name of each book arouses my interest , Amway completed the topic. The Miao Miao Xinghe, connected to the sea, was quiet and peaceful, the sound of paddling sounded, and a small boat entered the eye from the left, accompanied by the Spanish-style composition, the name of the boat "laluna", and three Personally, only a little boy appeared in the whole picture, lying on the edge of the boat very curious, this is his first time here, which also shows that the direction of the story will revolve around the little boy, accompanied by a warm and healing soundtrack, the boat Continuing to go deeper, an overhead shot introduces three generations, the young boy in the middle, the tall and strong father figure rowing the boat at the bow, and the figure of a grandfather with a long white beard and a mop in the stern. The strong image of the father is very strong at the beginning. oppressive.

Continuing an aerial shot to introduce the environment, a flat boat floats on a deep and calm sponge. This composition is dreamy, soft blue, and healing music. Based on past viewing experience, it seems that you will enter the "Peach Blossom Land" at any time. .

A flat boat in the sea with an oil lamp on the stern

The father stopped rowing, the grandfather threw the anchor into the water to hold the boat, took out a blue and yellow flower package wrapped in a hat and handed it to the child. The father and grandfather also owned this hat. This "hat" is a unique symbol in the film. Here, it is worth noting that the father wears the hat downwards, while the grandfather wears it upwards. The direction of their movements is always opposite. The father and grandfather often quarrel and quarrel. The first time in the play is because of how the child should wear it. With this hat, they all hope that the child will listen to their own thoughts. After turning off the kerosene lamp, the two of them crossed their arms and clasped their hands arrogantly. On the boat, children also imitate the action of two people holding hands. The father wipes his nose and the grandfather digs his ears. Children in the imitation period will take the behavior, hobbies, likes and dislikes of the people around them as their own imitation objects. In these three generations, the father And grandpa has become his imitation object.

Imitating hugging hands is the point of communication between three generations. It can be seen that the young father also imitated his grandfather, arrogant and cute

Suddenly there is a bright yellow light in the distance, the screen switches, the moon slowly rises from the sea, a panoramic shot, the moon is very close to the boat, this picture is very dreamy and beautiful, the picture cuts back to the boat, the father opens the bow cover and pulls out Ladder, the ladder stretches to the moon, the child is holding the anchor and wants to imitate the grandfather and still goes into the water, the child is in a stage of rapid growth of thinking, from imitation to wanting to practice.

Next, there is fear in the child's eyes, and when he shoots through the ladder, the child is caught in the middle, and his eyes flicker, which is very oppressive.

The father and grandfather let the child climb the ladder to the moon. I define this process as "adventure". The difference is that this is a fantastic adventure, which is unknown, excited and worried for the child. He stopped to look back, showing his inner nervousness, climbed up and floated up, and then suddenly sat on the moon. The brain hole in Pixar's animation is always impressive. The surprised boy looks at the shining stars everywhere. The camera zooms out quickly, and then slowly pans to the left. The light of the whole moon comes from the falling stars in the sky. There is a The utility room was stocked with tools, and father and grandfather began to sweep the stars, as if it were a family occupation—sweeping the moon.

At this time, the two had a second quarrel, because the child should learn whose cleaning method. At this time, the child was in the middle holding two brooms of different shapes. In the noise, the child picked up two brooms and started By comparison, the father's broom is like his square beard, and the grandfather's broom is like his mop beard. At this time, the father's tall oppression is weakened in the child's heart.

At this time, children are no longer limited to simple imitation. Such a comparison with ridicule has a tendency to oppose authority.

Ridiculous

The plot climaxes in a giant star that causes a shock, which stumped father and grandpa, and the two have a third quarrel. But at this moment, the boy walked in and came up with his own method, having gone through imitation-practice-thinking to himself, "It is worth noting that the boy turned his hat back before climbing the big star", This behavior symbolizes that he can start to practice his own ideas, not to imitate, not to worship.

This angle, the image is enlarged, strengthens the child
Through the comparison of heights, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves.

The process of the boy climbing up is very unique. From the perspective of the father and grandfather, it is always upside down, and the child’s perspective is down. This shot indicates the sublimation of the boy’s behavior and the growth of his thinking, which once again weakens the sense of oppression of the elders.

"Boom, ⭐⭐ Blast", the boy slowly descends with the stars in joy, the adventure is successful, and the status is equal!

In the future, it is worth noting that the picture starts with a close-up of the boy's tools, and then slowly pulls back to reflect the three-person working scene. This unique shot symbolizes the boy's mature thinking and the hat-wearing method just emphasized. After getting on the boat, the three of them looked at the moon with satisfaction. The successor of this family business was healed and the soundtrack sounded again. High energy came, everything in the picture, the full moon turned into a crescent moon, and "la luna" appeared. the moon god? The luminous stars on the moon occupy the eyeballs. If this story is transplanted to a boy who leaves home to complete an ordinary job and experiences difficulties, the core of this story can be clearly seen, a fantasy adventure growing up, but the animation has added space for imagination, Adding fantasy color, "moon landing" and "drifting", which used to only appear in dreams, but animations help us realize our dreams, and the process full of conviction has been diluted. The three characters "grandfather", "father" and "son" are what happened between three generations. The change in the child's mood is reflected in his way of wearing a hat, sweeping stars and tools. These three generations symbolize the growth of a boy. , three generations have their own ways of thinking about problems, but each other hopes that the next generation will follow their own ideas, and the results are often failures. This can be seen from the relationship between father and grandfather. When my father went to the moon for the first time, he should have also Solved the problem by himself, abandoning the authority of the predecessor, Grandpa. The number la luna is still working, the moon god is not mysterious, just like ordinary people, in the bickering of father and grandfather, the characters have reduced the sense of confrontation and even a little cute, the whole process is very dreamy, the soundtrack is gentle and smooth Healing, a great bedtime short.

i Buenas noches!
