Today I'm going to talk about another French film, Give Me Wings. It's a story of man and nature, turning it into a story of romantic adventure, a real encounter, the kind of French film I like, natural, warm, not deliberately sensational, but with healing power.
The stimuli of the information age are too many and too easy to obtain, so Thomas, who is forced to cut off the Internet, will pay attention to the subtle and interesting places around him, listen to music for the shaking bird eggs, and find that the birds have begun to break their shells before panicking to find his father. In his eyes, although these little lives bring a lot of inconvenience, they are still important beings that need to be taken seriously, so there are all the stories that follow.
When he saw the little creatures break out of their shells, and then thought of the cool gliders, he began to have the idea of flying with birds. Thomas is patient and really likes the little beings, although ostensibly only in exchange for one or two glider skills, but can do repetitive work every day, but also shows his love for the little ones. And as the time spent together becomes longer, the purpose becomes clear and simple, and every subtle moment begins to appear beautiful and precious. So the audience can see the story of a group of small lives with romantic hopes on their shoulders, and teenagers who are full of vitality, because the place where they spread their wings is the hometown of the white-fronted geese, so the moment they spread their wings becomes precious, and they and his fate begin to make people look forward to it.
However, the hidden danger was also buried at the beginning, Thomas was not old enough to get a flying license, and more importantly, the geese only followed Thomas, who could not fly. So the protagonists were naturally stopped, and the goose had to violate the regulations on a small scale for the sake of the geese, and then the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, the unapproved things of the experimental material were uncovered, and if they did not fly, the whole plan would fail.
Under the pressure of the situation, Thomas knew the rational choice, but he could not bear to watch the plan fail. Even if take-off is the plot point, the underage, inexperienced, and unknown journey still makes everyone mess up.
The cost of the adventure is obvious, for the parents is endless worry, long and painful pursuit, than the distant fate of the geese, the child's life is obviously more urgent. For Thomas, the journey was full of unexpected dangers, and the geese were his real weakness rather than the physical and psychological challenges, and several thrilling experiences made Thomas more determined to complete the migration.
So, when the family reunited, the father chose to protect Thomas, and Thomas chose the flock of geese. Thomas's mother also saw her son growing up outside the greenhouse, and with her help, Thomas finally completed the journey, seemingly drawing the perfect ending to this romantic story.
Xiao Li of Hunan Qifa Culture Media Co., Ltd. said that the harmonious coexistence of man and nature is the most romantic scene. In the process of migratory birds migrating, a child also grows up. Parents are also learning to trust their children. The most touching thing is the scene of the wife bathing in the lake, so that the husband can't help but look at the past. The migratory birds in the back also bathed in the water, when dew slipped down from the feathers. I would like to sigh, how seductive ah~
However, the most touching thing is always the unknown. Landing does not mean that the experiment was successful, and only in October the flocks of geese can return to the Arctic Circle on their own according to the learned route, and these white-fronted geese have the potential to change their fate. After a long and heart-wrenching wait, just as parents see their children alone, the crowd finally sees the returning geese, the beauty of nature and life, and the growth and family relationship of the protagonist in the film, forming a truly complete life story.
Life is power, truth is also power, this is a film adaptation of a true event that is romantic enough and shocking, recommended to watch.
