before the film's introduction read and read some trailers, maybe everyone will think is another "The Chronicles of Narnia", this is totally wrong! The film is not a magical fairy tale theme at all. The special effects scenes may add up to less than 10 minutes. In terms of the theme, they are actually similar to "Pan's Labyrinth". It talks about life and death, sin and salvation, and the beautiful fantasy is behind depression. , The gloomy reality. (Note: The most tearful tear in 2006 was for the strong little girl in "Pan")
The little protagonist Jesse is an ordinary or even a little cowardly elementary school boy. His only talent is painting, but his talent is not appreciated except for the heroine, his transfer classmate Leslie and the music teacher. His family background is mediocre and his parents are neat. Tian's mind is how to feed five children. He is rigid, serious, and boring. He had to help his father all day at a very young age. The film seems to be a satire of the uncontrolled birth of certain families in Western countries. It wasn't until he met Leslie, a transfer student, that he found the happiness of his childhood in his life. Leslie’s parents are writers, and does her family even have TV. Therefore, Leslie is a typical school girl, a bit like a little Punk. According to Jesse’s sisters, the two of them are together, Freak and Freak. The two of them accidentally discovered a piece of Wonderland of their own, and they also built a small house on a tree that belonged only to them. Every day after school, they would come here to spend a short period of happy time. Fancy many talking characters, giant tree man, dark king, righteous hornet army, evil vulture and squirrel. Until one day, the music teacher took Jesse into the city to visit the museum. Jesse did not invite Leslie to go with him. As a result. . . . . . , Alas, this place is so sad. If you have not read the original novel, you will never think of what happened here. The tone of the film has also started to turn 180 degrees from here. If there are parents who bring their children into the cinema, this time is fine. I started to coax your child to sleep. The latter is not for children to watch. The movie starts from the depressive reality and turns to the fantasy of the teenager, and the fantasy of the teenager is not all beautiful. The fairy tale characters are actually the reality of the two protagonists. A projection of life, like the giant who grew up exactly like the worst senior girl in school. There is a little religious sentiment in the film. Jesse believes in the Bible, but Leslie does not. The title of the film, the bridge, is actually Jesse’s. Self-salvation is his confession. I am afraid that this guilt will accompany him for a lifetime.

The film is actually not happy at all, so it is very real. Whoever says that childhood is happy, the stinky faces of parents, the stern teachers, the punks in school, I believe it is the true memory of many people’s childhood, but childhood is also beautiful. That is innocent friendship, little friends, it doesn’t involve love or interest. Everything comes from the heart and comes naturally. However, "God" finally took away the happiness of Jesse, the first drop in 2007. I shed tears for Leslie, this little girl who resembles Natalie Portman is the only consolation in Jesse's life, and the sin he has borne in his life.

It’s natural to think of "Pan God's Labyrinth" when watching this film, which all talked about death, but the death of "Pan God" is even more heroic. It is a complete disappointment and denial of reality. It is angry and has nothing to do with tears. Death here is more like a relief. And the death of "Bridge" is helpless to reality, life is like this, life and death, it does not contain any metaphors, reality is like this, People come into your life, and People go (Sex and the city), everyone Everyone will meet, relatives, friends, lovers, the death of "Bridge" is very natural, very lifelike, natural, and even more teary. "Pan God" hardly left anyone with any hope. It is a black fairy tale, mocking all our childhood fantasy. Although "Bridge" is also very depressive, the final tone is still warm. Jesse's bridge repair has achieved self-salvation, reality Although not so beautiful, happiness and happiness can be found only by working hard. "Pan Shen" is more literary, it is a story of an adult, and it has nothing to do with growth and parenting. Whether you are a parent or not, there is no difference in watching "Pan Shen", while "Bridge" was filmed for parents. Parents should reflect on whether we should give our children more care.

Jesse's performance is fresh and natural, without the slickness of many child stars. It should be said that the appearance is very clean and beautiful, just like the young Keira Knightley. In comparison, Leslie's performance is more mature, but there is a bit of old fritters, a typical child star. What attracted me the most in the film was the giantess, who looked exactly like the worst girl in school, but had a kind heart. This is very touching for everyone to experience in the film. In addition, Jesse's little sister is very cute, much like the little sister of "Narnia"!

The movie is actually a small production with a very small style, not fancy, all the special effects are point-to-stop, and even have a crude feeling. However, the fantasy of the teenager is originally so impractical, and it will not be luxurious and magnificent. It is foreseeable that "Bridge" will hardly receive any nomination at next year's Oscars, which makes the film more fresh and natural, without any accent. In this era, such sincere and simple children's films are rare.

    tears. I still really believe in a saying that those little lives who died young were actually chosen by God to be angels.

    We don’t know much about growing up at that time. Encountering individuals, teaching you how to face the bleak life, the unchanging life. She helps you grow.. Then leave.. As if her mission is like this, and then your life Will always remember her grateful that she missed her.. (seeing me in a mess.. tears streaming down. what a charming girl. and the world only they know)
