Fish: Have you heard some jokes so many times that you forget why they are funny?

An old movie in 2004, very simple name.

If you want to try to get to know your father, this movie is a good opportunity.

If you want to seek a pleasant viewing experience from movies, you probably don't want to watch Big Fish.

The film is fascinating because it is lonely.

With such a narration, the story begins with his memories.

Edward Blue, the protagonist of the film, visited the witch alone at night when he was a child. This teenager is the backbone teacher in the team. Later, he took the initiative to petition Carl, the hungry giant, to take him out of the city and travel long distances through the ghost town alone.

He is fearless and never flinches.

Later, he came to the isolated Fengdu town. I have to stay here because my shoes were stolen by a little girl in town, Jenny. People here live a relaxed and comfortable life, even eating is as leisurely as rocking chairs.

Jenny was the first person he met in his adventure, but he didn't choose to stay.

Then, after the circus performance, he met Thornton, the most important person in his life.

When I asked about my identity, I was poured cold water by Calloway of the circus:

Finally, Blue promised to work in the circus for one month for free in exchange for a message from the woman.

He knows the university where the girl goes.

He knows that the girl likes listening to music.

He knows that the girl's favorite flower is daffodil.

……

In this way, every month, he receives a message about the girl he loves.

At last he got her name and came to him.

Thornton said that when he got engaged, Blue couldn't hide his disappointment, but he never gave up, even though he didn't know each other's names at first.

He used a glider to write "Thornton I love you" in the sky.

He moved the curtain of the teacher's lecture.

He moved here from America, a rare daffodil.

He kept his promise and didn't fight back even if he was beaten by Dunn.

Finally, I won my heart.

Time flies, face fades, love remains.

At the end of life, father and mother embraced quietly in the bathtub to welcome the arrival of death together.

The first half of the film is interspersed with reality and memories of his father Blue. Gothic love and diaosi counterattack capture the goddess is not the center of the film. If the story ends like this, it will be very bad.

Such a seemingly boastful father is telling many people his legendary experience at every waking moment, just like a romantic and thrilling fairy tale. Just bragging?

At first, my son was deeply attracted by the story, but when the child grew up, he stubbornly believed that his father's experience was just a fictional story, and he could not tolerate the ubiquitous story more and more, so that the relationship between father and son broke down and he was silent for several years.

Yes, when I was a child, my father was omnipotent. His powerful arms can throw us high, and he can answer all your questions. Later, we gradually discovered that they are not omnipotent. They have as much trouble and confusion as we do. Later, we can slowly lift the sky with our shoulders. They retire from our lives bit by bit, which is no longer so important.

We all grew up listening to fairy tales, and then inevitably grew up and no longer believed in beautiful fairy tales.

Later, when we came to the real world and were disappointed again and again, we began to call that fairy tale a lie.

So we smiled sarcastically and said, "Yes, fairy tales are all lies."

Anyway, my son came back to take care of his father this time, hoping to meet a real father.

He found Aunt Jenny in the story. Jenny told the story of taking over her hometown Fengdu Town, a paradise that had fallen at that time, from her father and making the town prosperous again.

As for why my father hid this experience. I think I might feel guilty about Jenny. Even if he finally helped Jenny repair the house and manor, for him, providing that little help is more out of unspeakable debts.

No matter who becomes a high-profile hero, the princess's prince or the embodiment of justice, they can only leave a faint track and an ordinary life in the world.

04

The film used the second half to complete the concise theme, and then suddenly found that it turned out to be a real film about fatherly love.

The son sat by his father's bedside, quietly looking at the lonely old man, as if recalling his father's fairy tale life a little.

The son told his father the end of his life: his father escaped from the hospital, got on the red car he drove when he was young, and came to the river where young people were fishing. All the friends in his life gathered by the river, and they smiled and said goodbye without any sadness. The son carried his father into the river. The beautiful wife in the river said goodbye again with a quiet smile. Father took off the ring with his mouth and gave it to his favorite wife. Then he crossed his arms in his son's arms, turned into a big fish and swam away freely. ...

That ring is a wife, a child, a family and a responsibility. Only in this way can the youthful Blue stay voluntarily.

I have told this story many times, and I have become a part of it.

He himself eventually became a story and became immortal.

Then you changed back to your old self, a big fish, and it was over.

When you swim away, the stars gradually appear, and I can't speak.

At this time, I don't really care about the authenticity of my father's story.

Because in this world, only outside the person you love, you need to distinguish between true and false.

Have you heard jokes so many times that you forget why they are funny?

As for the moral of the big fish swimming far away in the story, it is probably our yearning for beauty.
