Turning Red (2022)
Disney wins
For most of the audience, this movie is just another Disney-like family movie with a predictable happy ending.
But from a Chinese perspective , it is too real to be a foreign language movie.
Many episodes or actions are telling a story of a Chinese kid's childhood.
The education of Honor your parents which is stem from confucianism, A over controlled Mother and a invisible father, the big burden of a long history family, all of these remind me of my real life.
There are many ways to address the problems in a drama, but in reality, the problem still exist and will last forever.
Nan Ren He Ta De Hai (2020)
I felt connection
I live in inland. I've seen many BBC-made ocean documentaries . To be honest, This movie is not as good as those. There aren't many spectacles and "once in a lifetime " moments.
But maybe because of the Chinese narration or the Chinese characters, when I finished the movie I felt the connection to the whales and the ocean.
It seems their life is not far away from me.
BTW
Wouldn't it be cool to have a scar hurt by a whale!
