tells that in 1976, 8-year-old Mary Daisy Dingle was a little girl in Melbourne, Australia, who liked the cartoon "Noblet", sweetened condensed milk and chocolate. Mary's mother is an alcoholic, and her father, who works in a tea packaging factory, only likes to make bird specimens. Lonely Mary has no friends. One day on a whim, she wrote a letter to Max Jerry Horowitz in New York City, USA, asking where the American children were from, and attached a cherry chocolate bar. The 44-year-old Marx suffers from autism and obesity. He also happens to like to watch "Noblett" cartoons and eat chocolate. The pen pal relationship between the two was maintained from 1976 to 1994, during which they experienced many ups and downs in their lives, until the adult Mary finally came to New York to visit Marx...
may be the most simple animation film I have ever seen this year. The character modeling and the frame-by-frame shooting technique are very rare in the current movies that promote "technology" and "simulation". However, this independent movie without dazzling visual effects, heroism, and large-scale publicity has more shocking souls than any 3D blockbuster. At first glance, this movie may be slightly It feels dull, but it doesn’t matter. Please settle your impetuous mood and watch it calmly. This movie is slow enough to wring out your heart and cut your nerve endings that are intact and intact. Good medicine is always bitter. If "The Flying House" is a refined adult fairy tale, this movie is a scalpel to analyze our spiritual world.
Marx finally said: "I forgive you because you are not perfect, you are not perfect and neither is I, no one is perfect, even those who throw debris outside the door, I wanted to become anything when I was young Apart from myself, Dr. Bernard Haashof said that if I were on an island, then I had to adapt to life alone, with only coconuts and me. He said that I must accept myself, my shortcomings and my All, we cannot choose our own shortcomings, they are also part of us. However, we must adapt to them. However, we can choose our friends. I am very happy to choose you. Everyone’s life is a long sidewalk, and some are neat , And some are like me, with cracks in banana peels and cigarette butts. Your sidewalk is like mine, but there are not so many cracks in mine. One day, I hope your sidewalks will intersect and we can share a can of condensed milk. . You are my best friend. You are my only friend.” I have read this dialogue over and over again and again, almost memorizing it. At the beginning of the movie
, like "Angels Love Beauty", the profile of the two people is introduced. As the color tone is bright and dark, the story follows these two colors. Two people who did not have any intersection, one lives in Melbourne and the other in the United States, but because of an accidental opportunity they started to communicate. They are very similar. They love chocolate and noble animation. They both live in a lonely corner of the city. Lack of love, no friends, few smiles, they are strange and difficult to touch in the eyes of others, Mary is born with low self-esteem because of the birthmark on her forehead, Marx suffers from mental illness all day long with fictional friends and goldfish. The encounter across the geographical limitation in the virtual world allowed them to find the person who knew them best. They kept confiding their views and understanding of society, love, friendship, sex and spiritual world through letters, and kept introducing each other My own preferences and experiences tell me everything I can’t say and comfort each other. A sincere friendship is warming up like this. Waiting for each other’s letter to become the most anticipated thing in their lives, letter after letter, In the sloping cold world, the two "hug" together and become the most loyal support in each other's world. Marx’s experience should be richer. After all, he is 44 years old. So when Mary mentioned some sensitive words, Marx was as if he was crushed, and his mouth was like being nailed to a stapler. Have you ever teased?", "Have you ever had love? Have you ever made love?" This sentence with innocent doubts like a knife to dig out the pain hidden in Marx's memory, making Marx anxious at the same time. Without facing himself again, he seemed to have seen his childhood in Mary, and saw his stupid adolescence throbbing. And when Marx's heart was put into the washing machine and was twisted, did you feel touched in front of the screen? Can you answer Mary's question? Do you feel the same way? Take off your suit, do you have a few scars? Every adult has a sturdyThe fortress, mature and sophisticated, is already unbreakable, and only innocence can make it collapse. The young Mary had a crush on her neighbor, longing for love and eager to "make love", but she was hurt by love again and again. She said to Marx, "I know love makes me miserable. So I don’t want to try it anymore. I think love is not for me. "Prepared", her life was full of changes. She lost her parents and lover, and finally almost lost even Marx, a friend. But in the end Marx forgave him, because Marx firmly believed that he did not choose the wrong friend, and he only had such a friend, and at the moment when Mary was almost desperate for life, it was the forgiveness of this old friend that made her stand again. It turns out that in the past 20 years, the friendship between the two has long been polished and indestructible, which even surpassed the love and even family affection that Mary had. The last scene of the
film is the most sensational scene in the whole film. Many years later, Mary finally summoned the courage to find Marx, but only when she entered the house found that Marx had left the noisy world peacefully on the sofa. On Marx's body, it is the pamphlet used to recognize facial expressions. It seems that he is ready to welcome this old friend. The roof of Marx’s room is covered with letters from Mary for so many years. They hang there neatly and intact, at a glance, as time passes by quietly in front of them, and the old typewriter has become forever It is a symbol of their friendship, sitting in the sunlight of the window. At this moment Mary watched all this and burst into tears. I think in the process of exchanging thoughts between two people, they have already understood what love is, and they have practiced it more greatly and unforgettable than ordinary people.
We have been discussing the value of friendship all our lives. Some people say that friendship is the most lasting, some people say that friendship is fragile, love, friendship and family love always appear before us as multiple choice questions, and different people will give different things. answer. In fact, the most important thing in the process of getting along is yourself. There is a saying that "how you are, what your world is like". You must be completely open to your heart before you can gain trust from others. And identification, this may be a bit risky, but it is also the price that must be paid in this life. Just like in this movie, Mary didn't know who was on the other end of the letter, but she gave her truest self. As a result, she received the same treatment from the other side and gained true friendship. Modern people have a strong sense of self-protection. In the process of choosing friends, many people are always pursuing the so-called perfection. They always set themselves many so-called standards for choosing friends, and do not give up their sincerity easily. And parents will often stand up and say, "Who is not a good boy, don't play with him", these are pathological thoughts, like a wall that obstructs the passage of heart and heart, "This kind of hedgehog, who has ever Treating me well will bring injuries." We don’t make friends for temporary pleasure, nor for gain, let alone the pursuit of so-called “equality”. What we need is the most inner communication and communication. The friends we need do not accompany you every day to eat, drink and play but lose everything in you. People who forsake you and ignore you, but can give you a slap when you make a mistake, shield you from the knife when you are cut, walk with you through a long street when you are most confused, and can not speak but can Know who you think in your heart completely. Friendship is actually looking for another self, because only oneself will not betray oneself.
