You can only protect yourself if you don’t let your youth pass away.

A crime film with magical images, based on the best-selling novel of the same name, tells a series of stories that happened after an innocent lively cute little girl was brutally killed by a neighbor. The film uses the perspective of the dead girl Susie and a prose narrative method to tell a magical crime story. The footage of the movie is beautiful, and the visual effects of the movie are fantastic enough, but the overall rhythm is too slow and the plot is a bit procrastinated, and not much connotation is loosened. The film is not expressive enough, and it’s a bit chaotic. In fact, the story is very simple, and only the tense part is Part of it, and the film uses a unique perspective to tell stories to expose the imperfections of the social system and the fragility of the family facing emergencies, as well as the fragility between parents and children, which ingeniously exposes family conflicts, and the soul is persistent every day. Home comes portrays the girl's unwillingness to leave the home and her attachment to the home. The film does not have a so-called ending. The wretched uncle was not brought to justice. Susie, who had a short life, did not go to heaven. After watching it, she felt that she was very depressed. It was even more sad to think that this was the adaptation of a real event. There are a lot of news about pedophilia today, and only a handful of them have been made into movies. Although there are weak people’s feelings of powerlessness in punishing criminals and the feeling that the family needs to love again, they still can’t accept the ending. However, the cruel reality is that all the protagonists do not necessarily die until the end. Not all crime films are thrilling and suspenseful. Not all criminals and villains can be brought to justice in the end, and not all victims are. Can heal injustice and get snow. The difficulty of this kind of film is how to be accepted by the public after the reality is nakedly exposed. This film did it.

    I haven't read the original book, but I really like this gorgeous and bright feeling. The music that we meet under the tree at the end is Song To The Siren from This Mortal Coil.

The Lovely Bones quotes

  • Susie Salmon: Always, I would watch Ray; I was in the air around him, I was in the cold winter mornings he spent with Ruth Connors; and sometimes Ray would think of me, but he began to wonder maybe it was time to put that memory away, maybe it was time to let me go.

  • Susie Salmon: There was one thing my murderer didn't understand; he didn't understand how much a father could love his child.
