Their historical works include Looking for Neno and The Wall. There is a kind of worm life, a monster. Inc) ... and Jobs was one of the founders of Pixar.
In addition to the amazing imaginative depiction of the world after death and the acousto-optic visual effect, this film also has a reputation, which should be a discussion about "dreams, feelings and death"
Previous film and television works have never portrayed dreams and deaths or cartoons from this angle.
The first half of the film is about dreams.
Mig, a boy from a shoemaker family in Mexico, loves music. Most Mexicans who enjoy life are passionate about music. But he only dared to hide his love for music in the abandoned attic at home.
He put up a poster of his idol, the late God Delacourt, in the attic. He is addicted to using an old video recorder to play the works of the god of songs over and over again, and recite them backwards.
Because MiG's great-great-grandfather, in pursuit of his musical dream, ran away from home irresponsibly and heard nothing. Leaving the abandoned great-great grandmother struggling to support her family.
But because great-great-grandmother can never forgive her husband. Since then, family rules have been made: family members are forbidden to touch music for generations.
MiG, who is full of admiration for Song Shen's successful performance career, unexpectedly thinks that Song Shen is his great-great-grandfather, based on similar clues on the guitar, and has strengthened his determination to attend the grand concert on the Day of the Dead.
So in the fierce conflict between ideals and family rules, angry and sad MiG came to the world of the undead.
In the world of the undead, he still tries to find opportunities to meet the God of Songs in person and get his blessing.
In the innocent and pure MiG's view, Song Shen's inspiring famous saying "seize every opportunity" is an understanding and spur to persist in the pursuit of ideals, and it is a silent resistance of all young people to mediocrity.
It is easy for us to smile with such longing: fear of being buried in the set norms, naive desire to show all our talents, eager to be recognized; I want to keep following the inner light and find a broader meaning of life and a greater sense of value. ...
If that's all, this is a gorgeous cartoon with a slightly different background and a dream-chasing type.
Is it just a common background to choose a regional nation that cherishes family ties and an alternative theme of life and death?
Pixar spent ten years preparing this animation, and certainly didn't want to do more.
The English name of the film is Coco, which is also the name of the great-great grandmother of the boy MiG. This old lady who lost most of her memories in the film and spent most of her time doing nothing, waiting for the last point of her life, is a character who strung together the emotional lines of the whole film.
Cocoa old lady ran out of oil, her eyes and consciousness became more and more cloudy and dim, but she could clearly recall the warm memories related to her father when she was young, accurately opened the drawer, took out the letter that her father treasured her childhood, and sang her love and thoughts for her father. ...
In the dark, I know I'm definitely not the only one, and tears can't help falling.
There was a cautious rustle around: some people rummaged through their bags for paper towels, some people couldn't stop sniffling, and some people used another posture to cover up their embarrassment.
The other world, great-great-grandfather Ekto, was deliberately forgotten for a long time because of misunderstanding and resentment of several generations of family members.
As a ghost that nobody cares about or worships, he lives alone at the bottom of the undead world.
If no one in the world remembers it, then the ghost will eventually become dust and disappear with a gust of wind.
For decades, Hector has been struggling, trying his best to go home to see his beloved daughter Coco every year on the Day of the Dead.
If the only person who remembers his daughter dies, he will become a gust of wind, never to be seen again, and no one will remember him again.
Life and death are the first isolation, and death and forgetting are the heavier isolation.
Seeing such "rules", you can't help thinking: If I die, who will put me in my heart?
The name of such a lovely little girl is in sharp contrast to that of a wrinkled old lady.
Finally Coco died and was reunited with his parents in the undead world. It is also a very happy picture that the little old lady is curled up like a child, still calling her parents.
From time to time, there will be similar scenes in the film to reconcile the dignity of the topic between life and death.
For example, jaw series:
For example, the eye scare series:
It is said that the Chinese translation of this animated film with Douban score of 9.3 is 0. 1 higher than that of Zootopia.
To tell the truth, I bought a ticket online, and on the way home from the movie, I couldn't figure out its Chinese name. Is it "Dream Tour", "Dream Cruise" or "Dream Tour"?
Instead, I only remember the concise English name CoCo. What * * * is not a continuous collection of individual feelings? Small is big.
Think about the virtual story, sad for a while, most of us will still be busy on an endless road. I don't know where the light is and when it will stop.
We will naturally continue to enjoy and squander those unconditional love, and then pursue the stubborn determination in our hearts.
No matter whether tomorrow is the same or not, go to the movies and shed a tear when you are free today.
