审片 审片+胡思乱想
用爱文的话说,这两天我净审片来着。一口气看了3部儿童电影,2部是豆豆妈妈推荐的: Thumblina, Fantastic Mr. Fox; 还有一部是琪琪的英文老师推荐的:Charlotte's Web.
今天晚上跟琪琪一起看了Thumblina,她果然很喜欢。画面精美,对话也比较简单。
三部影片中Fantastic Mr. Fox是难度最大的,我觉得整个主题和对白都更适合成人观看和理解。没有中文字幕的情况下,狐狸爸爸的传奇魅力要大打折扣。我准备给琪琪详细讲解剧情后再看。
最后一部charlotte's Web, 跟芭比系列一个特点,语言都比较浅显生动,不像狐狸爸爸还要来一段存在主义的独白。我和琪琪爸爸看了之后都很感动,然后我就开始胡思乱想,不知怎么就从这头猪的事情想到自己身上去了……
The Destiny of Mother
In the film Charlotte’s Web, Wilbur the piglet eventually escaped from the destiny of a spring pig that would never see winter’s snow with the help of his friends. He would not become ham or bacon for X’mas dinner. Wilbur was surely an extraordinary piglet.
But what’s the destiny for an ordinary mother, I wonder. Death? Absolutely not. All men are mortal. The destiny of a mother, I suppose, no doubt and no surprise is the departure of her kids, both physically and mentally. Why, people will say that’s commonsense and it will be our great pleasure to watch our kids grow-up and leave home. No reason to feel hopeless or helpless.
Yes. I have to admit that it does make sense. But for me, I perceive it’ll work in a different way. The departure of our kids will not be a moment of nice kiss for goodbye or waving your handkerchief with a few tear drops at the gateway. In fact, it may be a long goodbye lasting for years, a long harsh war to go through or even a nightmare for those trapped parents, especially, sensitive mothers.
All of these painful dark days may begin with a bright day, all of a sudden, totally beyond our consciousness. That bright day, our beloved kid remarks, ‘Oh, mum, let me be, please.’ If we unfortunately happen to ignore his/her impatience and try to make more points, he/she will say, ‘Mum, it’s just my personal issue. You have no right to make judgments on me!’ They will say this quietly but firmly, staring into your eyes while you’re startled and upset.
What’s happened to our kids? Where are the little, cute, delightful, obedient sweeties? Where had they gone? They should always be there, beaming from ear to ear at sight of us, opening their arms and hungry for our affectionate hugs. However, they’re not there any more, and they’ll never come back.
And that’s the answer we can get from a doctor, ‘Don’t be nervous, ma’am. That is only adolescence.’
Adolescence. Whenever this word comes up, our long goodbye will start formally.
Let’s celebrate the premiere of a brand new drama where kids are heroes and heroines. We find ourselves overcome with complex feelings of nameless exciting, agitation and alienation as the overreacted audience watching their performance. We may know exactly what’s going on and how it’s gonna to be ended up because those were old, tough stories we’d been through as teenagers. Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we beam, sometimes we burst into tears and sometimes we yell out for anxiety. But, remember, we’re just the audience, whatever we know the truth or not, the actors and actresses on their stage just won’t listen.
All that we could do will be watching, laughing or weeping. Our kids are growing so wildly like those plants will do in Spring that we can hardly have chance to do a perfect pruning. How could it be in this way? Please don’t be puzzled or feel frustrated. Actually, that is the way we say goodbye to our little sweeties. Be relax and be polite as the best audience could do and don’t forget to applause timely or you’ll be too easily getting into a war- a cold war rather, as it’d be most time.
And after all the mess, all the desperate, aimless efforts, the kids will finally struggle their own way out. They’ll find their brave new world without our close company and learn to be themselves without our continuous intervention. They’ll become so strong and independent that it may seem a little bit strange even awful for a devoted mother who still recalls memories of toddlers.
That departure pain roots deeply from inevitable generation gap as well the maternal instinct about safe and love.
It is a hard time for all devoted mothers but it’s our destiny. That day is coming up. I have confidence and courage to go through all the sufferings on departure. I have no choice facing the destiny.
I cherish every joyful moment that I once shared with Jane and I will spare no effort to be her lifetime friend, a reasonable, accountable, considerate and intimate friend, and, a loyal and polite audience for her new world without me. This is not a destiny. This is a promise and a promise means never to break.
