In fact, compared to the movie "Big Fish and Begonia", I prefer Zhou Shen's music "Big Fish", especially the version with Guo Qin in the second season of "China's New Singing".
"Big Fish and Begonia" is a fantasy animated film with a history of twelve years. Although the Douban score is only 6.8, I personally feel that it has not lived up to the expectations of domestic animation fans. In terms of plot, it finally Break out of Journey to the West and inject some freshness into domestic animation. From a visual point of view, although there are various animations that imitate Hayao Miyazaki, the moment Chun stood in front of the door of Rushing Tower, I suddenly felt like I saw Xiaoqian standing at the door of the soup house for the first time in "Spirited Away" In the past, the similar appearances of Lingpo and Tangbaba, and the designs of Qiu and Xiaobai. Fortunately, the various Chinese styles such as clothing, hairstyles, couplets, lanterns, and earthen buildings in "Big Fish and Begonia" can slowly bring the moviegoers back. When you go to the mythical China, the pictures are elegant and beautiful, and you feel like you are immersed in it. If transcendence starts with imitation, then I think "Big Fish and Begonia" is at least successful in imitation.
In the depths of the ocean where the sky is connected to the sea of ??the human world, there live "others" who control the laws of the human world. The people living here have to visit the human world during the coming-of-age ceremony and are not allowed to have contact with humans. The girl Chun was trapped in a net in the sea on the last day she returned to her tribe. The human boy was sucked into the whirlpool and sank to the bottom of the sea to die in order to save Chun. , the girl felt guilty after returning to her own world. At Pai Yao's suggestion, Ru Shenglou used half of her lifespan to exchange the boy's soul "Kun" with the spirit woman. If Kun is reborn, Chun needs to go through various difficulties and obstacles. The biggest disaster is the intrusion of seawater caused by violation of ethnic rules and the disaster of annihilation. In the end, Chun's secret admirer Qiu sacrificed himself to send Chun and Kun back to the world in order to fulfill Chun's wish.
I understand that Chun spent half of his life in exchange for Kun's rebirth in order to repay his kindness. I also understand that Qiu tried his best to fulfill Chun's wishes because of his love for Chun, even sacrificing his own life. I just don't understand Is it really necessary to sacrifice the entire clan for personal repayment? Even though Ling Po did not tell Chun what kind of difficulties there would be, and Chun himself did not know that the genocide disaster would be caused by the intrusion of sea water, Qiu must have known about it before opening the Gate of Sea and Sky, but in order to let Chun and Kun return to the world, Or steal grandma's mask and open the door to sea and sky. Is it really necessary to pay such a high price to repay kindness or love?
There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun. If the nameless boy who saved Chun in the human world could be called Kun, then it would always feel like a drama if the fish (soul) that Chun exchanged for half his lifespan in Rushenglou was named Kun. The Kun was so big that it was unknown how many thousands of miles away it was; when it turned into a bird, its name was Peng. I don't know how many thousands of miles the Peng has on his back; when it flies in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging down from the sky. Such a heroic "Kun" is constantly hiding behind Chun. When danger comes, Chun and Qiu always need to work together to protect and hide.
Putting aside all possibilities to be moved by Yu Qiu's dedication, Chun and Qiu Kun, no matter what difficulties they experienced, after all, spring passed and autumn came, autumn passed and spring came, and there was more than just one Kun in the middle. "Chun repays Kun's kindness, who can repay Qiu's kindness?"
I like many beautiful sentences in the movie:
Some fish can never be caged, because they belong to the sky.
The chun leaves and the chun comes, and the begonia flowers bloom. Have you turned into wind and rain and traveled through time to come here.
All living humans are like giant fish in the sea; when they are born, they set out from this shore of the sea. Their lives are like crossing the sea, sometimes meeting and sometimes separated. When they die, they When we reached the shore, everyone went to their own worlds.
Watch reincarnation, love and farewell. The reincarnation of life is a miracle.
Life is a journey. We have gone through several reincarnations to get this journey.
And this journey is very short, so you might as well be bold, you might as well be bold to love someone, to climb a mountain, to chase a dream...
