Today is Mother's Day, have you thought about what gifts to give your mother?
Is it flowers, perfumes, clothes or bags?
In fact, for mothers, the most wanted gift is the children's understanding and understanding.
However, it is still a little too difficult to ask a child to empathize with his mother, and if he can "exchange identities", he may be able to do it.
Today we recommend four movies about mother's love for everyone, some funny, some warm, some "exchange souls", and some with a little horror element, but the foothold is to make us understand mom better!
01
Hot Mom Hot Girl
English title: Freaky Friday
Douban score: 7.4
Recommended for:
Children and mothers seem to never do much mutual understanding, empathy is said every day, but the quarrel has not decreased, many people quipped: Perhaps only by exchanging identities can we achieve true empathy!
"Hot Mom Hot Girl" is such a mother-daughter soul exchange, full of warmth and laughter.
The film tells the story of a mother and daughter whose tastes and habits are different, and on a strange Friday morning, they find each other's bodies on the opposite body — that is, the mother has become the daughter, and the daughter has become the mother.
Helplessly, they had to enter each other's lives: the mother went to the daughter's school, and the daughter went to replace the mother as a psychologist.
They learned about each other from different angles, and the mother and daughter re-learned to understand each other, but only if they had to find a way to change back before they showed their feet.
In the film, the mother has always not understood her high school daughter, and tries to control her daughter's life, does not allow her daughter to join the band, criticizes her daughter's often F scores, and always affirms "If I were you, I would definitely work hard... I can pass all the exams...".
The daughter also does not understand her mother, and she is also a little repulsive to her stepfather, she always can't find a way to communicate with her mother calmly, and she always thinks that her mother is happy because she can "do whatever she wants".
We all know that the exchange of souls does not exist in real life, but there is no need to use the magic cookies in the film, as children, we only need to think from the perspective of our parents in our growth, experience their difficulties, and hope that parents can understand the heart of a child who is growing up to be more and more self-aware.
02
weakness
English title: The Blind Side
Douban score: 8.7
When we think of maternal love, we always think of our mother, and we think of blood thicker than water. But maternal love is actually very broad, it is not limited to blood relations. "Weakness" tells the story of a mother and son who are not related by blood.
Auch, a black boy, has been divorced from his parents since childhood and is homeless. However, because of his strong physical condition and athletic talent, he was fortunate to enter a private Christian high school. Although he scored zero points, there were some details that made him stand out.
After a volleyball match, his initiative to clean up the garbage caught the attention of the Taussi family. So Mrs. Taussi decided to adopt Ohher and train him to be a rugby player. Mrs. Taussi made him feel the warmth of family.
At the same time, Tossy's son also helped Oher train, so that he quickly integrated into the life of the rugby team and constantly stimulated the potential of the sport.
Finally, in a game, he came to the fore for his outstanding performances and began to gain the attention of scouts, which brought a series of sweetness and trouble...
The film is based on Michael Lewis' original book Weakness: The Course of the Game and is based on the extraordinary experience of Michael Oher, the winner of the 2009 National Football League draft.
The most touching thing in "Weakness" is the mother played by Sandra.
At the end of the film appears the film's prototype, the 2009 NFL rookie, Big Michelle and his white family, their group photo, their lives. Without that great white mother, there would be no Michelle today. Because he may have died like the unfortunate people in other black communities.
At the beginning of the movie, the big man with the plastic bag in his hand and a very little word, he is dazed, he does not know what to study in class, does not know where to go after school, has nothing to do in the laundry, and does not know where to go.
On that cold rainy night, he walked in the rain, not knowing where he would perch. He was lucky to meet the kind lady and the "mother" who changed his life.
03
Ghost mom
English business name: Coraline
Douban score: 8.2
Let me give you the world you want and lend me your soul, can you?
Coraline is an adventurous little girl, with old houses and bottomless wells, all of which together arouse her curiosity about the world.
Her parents, on the other hand, seem to be working only at the computer, impatiently shouting at her, don't boring me.
One day, this little girl found a small door and was surprised to find that it could lead into another world. There, everyone's eyes have become buttons, but she has another pair of kind, elegant, meticulous parents, with delicious turkeys, cream ice bullying, mango milkshakes, the garden blooms with thousands of flowers that can sing and dance, and even the boring neighbors in reality have become performing artists, and she has her own unexpected surprises in this world.
And just as Coraline was immersed in this wonderful world, the "other mother" pulled out something that had been prepared for a long time, a pair of black buttons.
"Mom" said to Coraline that as long as you are willing to sew this pair of black buttons on your eyes, you can stay in this beautiful world forever.
Coraline suddenly woke up, "Another World", seems too perfect, perfect is not real, and everyone here has big buttons sewn on their eyes, she does not want her eyes to become buttons, so she decisively shouted NO!
In fact, this little girl coraline who dares to pursue her dreams and dares to sigh with reality is exactly who we were in childhood.
We dream of strange things, dream of having beautiful parents and friends, and then we become "ghost mothers" living in dreams, delusional that everyone lives according to their own wishes, delusional attempts to manipulate the whole world, and then we also become unhappy people, wanting to exchange all kinds of materials for happiness.
Finally, the brave Coraline, after discovering that her parents in reality have also been captured by the "ghost mother", once again returns to the evil world to save her parents and liberates the soul trapped in the house.
This is a horror animation, the ghost mother in the film is like those mothers who have a strong desire to control their children, they think that they have created a perfect world for their children, and the children are their private property.
But the film tells us that children are always independent individuals, and they will always find the path they want to take, not necessarily as perfect as the mother planned, but it is her own choice.
04
Wolf kids rain and snow
The Wolf Children Ame and Yuki
Douban score: 8.6
The movie "Wolf's Child Rain and Snow" is a warm and heartwarming story. The setting of a werewolf is not unusual, but the story is told from how a single mother raised the offspring of two werewolves in human society.
Here, the story of the werewolf is closer to the real world, closer to our daily lives, as if there are these "human beings" around us who will transform.
The film presents the world of werewolves that we never knew about—the details of their growing up life, the problems they will encounter in real human society, and how they coexist with humans without being suspected and discovered.
For the audience, it is their mother who sees and is more moved.
The mother is weak on the outside, but very tough and strong on the inside, giving up the comfortable urban convenience life, away from the crowd and bringing two babies to the mountains, repairing the huge broken house alone, opening up a wasteland into a large vegetable garden, not giving up on life, loving and carefully caring for the two wolf children...
The mother went from living on her late husband's savings to becoming self-reliant, with a relatively stable job, with a jeep, and everything was on track, and she relied on the strength of one person.
A single young mother, even if she lives alone with an ordinary human baby, is difficult in an isolated environment. Not to mention the two baby wolf babies who don't quite control the transformation.
The whole film is filled with great maternal love, a strong heart, and a spirit of perseverance from beginning to end. Be positive and forward, even if it is difficult, you have not given up on life, and you have given up on yourself and your children. Love in the heart, whether it is the continuation of the husband or the responsibility to the child, makes the mother great and indestructible.
