The movie of the same name, adapted from the book "Beating Heart", got a high score of10/of more than 0.2 million people on Douban.
However, under the sweet love, it is a cosmic collision of two families' diametrically opposite educational ideas.
Sally, a 7-year-old girl, fell in love with Bryce, a new boy, at first sight because of his bright and aggressive eyes.
However, Bryce was scared away by her enthusiasm. How much Julie wants to get close to Bryce and how much Bryce wants to escape from Julie.
However, the world is always changing, and anything that happens in life may become the fuse of children's growth:
In Defending the Buttonwood Tree, Julie learned to look at everyone's actions from a macro perspective.
From the fact that Bryce threw away the chicken for her, I realized that the eyes that made her fall in love were just her irrational infatuation. Bryce never loved her as much as she thought.
Julie understands the philosophy of life more and more every day. She became confident and keen, and saw Bryce's indecisive and evasive character in time.
Dramatically, when she came to her senses, Bryce found herself in love with her dazzling light.
From Julie's growing up, we can see that she is a "minority" who doesn't follow the crowd. There is a high degree of self-esteem and a strong tendency to individualize, but there is also a very strong need for self-expression.
She clearly knows what she wants, and she will be more determined to move toward the goal.
On the other hand, Bryce played a good hand in repeated hesitation and evasion.
The biggest difference between Julie and Bryce is that when she formed her own view of love from independent thinking, Bryce was still echoing others' views on Julie and love, which were basically instilled by others.
Reflected in this world, many people think that being kind to others can win their love, but this is actually not a sufficient reason to win their favor, so that they can become better.
Julie blindly expressed her love for Bryce, but she was repeatedly rejected. When she became dazzling, Bryce was still deeply attracted by her, even though she was indifferent to Bryce.
If you like a person, you can like him because of his looks, personality, speech, specialties and so on, but you must not like him because you are good to yourself.
Because when you like someone, you always want to be nice to him involuntarily, but when you no longer like him, this kind of kindness will disappear with the dissipation of your liking.
At this time, without the hormone filter, the person you like may return to the status quo of nothing. Just like leaving attractive eyes, Bryce has no other place to attract Julie.
The reason why the growth of the two children is so different is that the film shows more influence from the family, especially the father of the two children.
The material conditions of Julie's family are not very good, because she has to take care of her mentally retarded uncle Daniel, but Julie still gets full affirmation and the feeling of being loved from her father Richard.
After the beloved buttonwood tree was cut down, depressed Julie received a picture of the buttonwood tree painted by her father.
Although the buttonwood really didn't stay, Richard understood the meaning of buttonwood to his daughter, so he used a pair of eternal buttonwood trees to affirm her original intention of guarding, and the support behind it further pushed Julie to doubt the world and face herself.
Compared with Julie, she always gets love and encouragement from her father. What Bryce got from his father Rosicky was mostly negative feedback:
I suspect that Julie's eggs will contain salmonella, arbitrarily think that Julie's family has genetic defects, and suspect that Julie's brother traded stolen money for recording equipment. ...
Compared with Julie's practice of seeking the secular truth by doubting the world, Rosky's suspicion is more of a total denial of the value of others.
Father's influence is the deep reason why Bryce plays a good hand.
Influenced by his father, Bryce received little positive feedback and didn't learn how to communicate with people sincerely. Rosicky habitually belittles, doubts and taunts others, making children afraid to resist because of fear.
Not only in dealing with people, but also in educating children.
In a person's life, family provides us with a great part of confidence. Although a wealthy family has to stoop, spiritual peace is more important.
Children who are often affirmed will be more confident to cope with various challenges in the future, because even if they fail again, there will always be family members who will not easily deny it.
Especially in this matter of life, just like drinking water, know yourself and know yourself.
Rosicky should not impose his own values on others, not only hurting children and other family members, but also hurting himself.
His irritability, in addition to the resistance from his family, is more anger at himself.
He used to be a great young man who loved music, but I don't know when he became irritable ... a combination of various negative words.
What saddens me even more is that Rosicky didn't even realize the real reason for his anger.
He lacks communication with the world and he doesn't know how to express his needs. He can only express what he doesn't want by expressing dissatisfaction, and then seek what he wants.
As an individual, he can choose the expression he wants, but as a father, he must pay attention to whether the expression will have a negative impact on the whole family.
Because children are parents and mirrors, children's three views will subtly shape stereotypes and reproduce the tragedy of the previous generation.
Fortunately, Bryce has a wise grandfather and a rainbow-like Julie who volunteered to come into his life. Under their influence, Bryce began to re-examine his past behavior and make up for it. Finally, a plane tree seedling saved the innocent feelings of two childhood friends.
Through this story, the author makes two diametrically opposed families intersect and makes the children grow into an ideal ending.
But the chances of the story coming true are too small. If you are Bryce, I hope you will look forward to the appearance of "Rainbow Girl", while facing the sun with your back to the shadow, and strive to grow rainbow-colored flowers in the crevices of family of origin.
May every child become "Julie" and may every "Bryce" meet a rainbow.
