Love and courage are never lacking around us. Love and courage will always accompany us no matter when and where. As the trailer of the movie "Brave Legend" said, "No matter what age you are, home is an eternal harbor".
The film Legend of Courage tells a story about the mysterious Scottish Highlands that took place in the 10 century. As the eldest daughter of King Fogg and Queen Eleanor, Merida, the protagonist, is an excellent archer, but this runs counter to her mother's original intention. In order to challenge the sacred marriage tradition, Melinda of Luma, with the help of whispering elves, sought to marry a witch in the forest and turned her mother and triplet brothers into bears. Finally, after a series of efforts around love and courage, Merida broke the spell and found the true meaning of love and courage.
Brave Legend is the first costume drama produced by Pixar and the first fairy tale movie. This is Pixar's first cartoon featuring women. The whole movie is full of Pixar humor, vivid characters and first-class picture effects.
Throughout the movie, we can always feel the touching details that Pixar has shown us. Gorgeous but not cumbersome, surprising but not scary, romantic and warm ups and downs, can not help but make people move, love and courage will always inspire everyone.
First of all, the protagonist Merida showed the audience the true meaning of love and courage. Merida has changed a lot since she turned her mother into a bear. After getting along with her mother who became a bear, Melinda changed her previous prejudice against her mother and felt her mother's deep love for herself. When her mother was captured by her father and the leaders of three other tribes and was about to be killed, Merida openly challenged her father and protected her mother with amazing courage. In real life, although we can't have such a dramatic color, we still have to learn from this film our love for our relatives and friends and our courage to face a miserable life. We should all face life with a lover and a brave heart and go forward bravely.
Secondly, Queen Eleanor also deeply embodies love and courage in the later stage of the film. Eleanor, who is in the supreme position, has the majesty and demeanor of a queen everywhere in her life. However, after becoming a bear, Eleanor took off her crown and put down her shelf. In the process of getting along with her daughter Melinda, Eleanor realized Melinda's feelings, tried to understand her and regained her love with Melinda. Finally, when Merida was subjected to the magic degree, Eleanor broke the shackles of everyone with great courage and resolutely fought against the magic degree. Every mother's love for her children is always incalculable. No matter what kind of danger you are in, love for children can always make them abandon everything. They always love us deeply.
Finally, King Fogg also showed love and courage. King Fogg's love for Melinda and his three triplet brothers, as well as his love for his wife Eleanor, moved us. In the last scene of the film, the wife and son are restored to their original state, and the scene of King Fogg's family reunion is full of love. On courage, Fogg is the most representative. Facing the huge and ferocious bear, Fogg showed fearless momentum and defeated the enemy with firm belief.
We never lack love and courage. Love and courage are always around us. What we lack is a way to express love and courage. Love and courage are often the best medicine for our growth.
Comments on "The Legend of Courage"
The legend of courage is deeply touched. Really, I think it's really the pinnacle of Pixar. Grinding an "arrow" for three years has shot into each of us.
Pixar used a 10 century Scottish Highland Princess to perfectly explain the journey from recklessness to bravery, the most sincere love between mother and daughter?
/kloc-The Scottish Highlands in the 0/0 century have not been occupied by England. It is full of wild breath, but this wild land has brought the audience into a magical journey. The whole article tells the story of a reckless princess from being changed by external forces to discovering the true meaning of love, with whispering elves as the clue and maternal love and courage as the dual-center thought. Although this journey is dreamy, it is real. Only Scotland, a magical continent, can be so dreamy.
Let's summarize some gorgeous plots, or some foreshadowing, that I found by watching movies myself. I have to admire the staff at Pixar. The foreshadowing is too natural to find:
The king and the bow
This laid the groundwork for Merida's reckless personality similar to her father after her death. Her father put the bow on the table, and Merida put the bow on the table. Besides, Eleanor said that the king didn't believe in magic, which paved the way for Melinda to tell the king that Eleanor had become a bear and chased the bear.
Eleanor's story
A story of the Queen has laid two foreshadows. One is to pave the way for the ancient kingdom that Merida discovered when she was guided by whispering elves for the second time. The second is to pave the way for the dispute between the four tribes in her kingdom and Melinda's speech in the middle of the story.
Cut tapestry
For the subsequent development of the story, it is found that the rubble of the ancient kingdom similar to tapestries and the words of witches have laid the groundwork.
Witch's words
The two words said by the witch in the story have laid two foreshadows respectively: First, a prince did the same thing before, paving the way for the magic degree of the black bear. Second, the witch said: it is very important to bridge the gap blinded by vanity, which not only paves the way for the big prince of the ancient kingdom indirectly, but also lays the groundwork for the final thawing of mother and daughter.
Eleanor, who became a bear, put down her crown.
This is the little suspense I mentioned just now, which is the deepest foreshadowing of the whole story, because the witch said that if you want to break magic, you must bridge the cracks blinded by vanity, and that crown means vanity. When she went into the water to catch fish by herself, he put down his crown and played with his daughter in the river, which meant that only by putting down her vanity could she find true love, and the crack of vanity was repaired from this moment on.
The story takes place in Scotland, and naturally bagpipes are indispensable. Pixar really respected historical facts in the 10 century and didn't let elegance be born ahead of time. And those ancient music naturally brought the audience to Scotland 1000 years ago.
In addition, the interlude of the story summary is used properly, which makes the audience understand the mood of the characters in the movie well and makes us feel like we are in the play.
The above points, and many points I didn't realize, made this wonderful film. The highlight is that the princess has no prince. I don't agree. Its highlight is that it breaks away from the true love between men and women, but breaks our mindset from another angle and makes us feel love and courage.
Review of The Legend of Courage
I saw a movie, The Legend of Courage, and I was deeply impressed. I want to share it with you. At the beginning of the film, I thought that the whole story was probably that the princess and the bear finally turned enemies into friends, making the whole country become good friends with the bear, and finally meeting a clever prince. Of course, as the story deepened, I gradually saw a touching message explaining fate and affection.
First of all, the protagonist is really the princess-Melinda, and she is rebellious and doesn't like the marriage arranged by her parents, so she wants to change her fate (sounds familiar? )。 But since then, the film has chosen another direction: no, she didn't meet Prince Charming, no vicious stepmother tried to kill her, and no witch tried to frame her. In fact, there is no love story in the movie. Brave Legend focuses on the relationship between a rebellious princess and a strict mother, amplifying the contradiction between them, and Merida's fate has always been in her own hands. Whether the impulse leads to disaster or eventually saves the day, she has to find the answer herself. At the end of the film, what we actually see is more respect than humility. Merida understood her mother's painstaking efforts, and she followed the princess's footsteps to see the farther world.
After watching this film, I felt a lot. In fact, each of us has a growing experience when we are young. When we have children as adults, do we expect our children to grow up like ourselves, so as to be stable and decent? Every child has his own personality and pursuit. Premature bondage will either make children too rigid, or will only make children choose rebellious emotions more and more. Any daughter will unconsciously think of her mother. She is always nagging and strict, but at the same time, she realizes that even if she is angry with her mother's discipline sometimes, she must not be hurt. The communication between children and their parents is also a practical problem, especially when adolescent children begin to form self-awareness and change like adults, they will be very autistic and self-centered for a while, and their parents can't enter their world at all and understand their thoughts. This film also embodies this point. The communication failure between Merida and her mother led to a sense of disgust between them. But when her mother could no longer "talk", Merida found the importance of communication.
Everyone has the right to pursue their dreams, but it is our duty to respect our families. When a person can respect his parents, listen to your children and occasionally pursue the life he wants, such a person will be very satisfied and happy! ;

One day, Princess Eleanor asked the little princess to get married, and came to three houses, but who did the little princess marry? Just when no one was looking, the little princess said, "Let's try archery. I will marry whoever wins. " One of them won, but the little princess didn't want to get married, so she picked up an arrow and shot it at three targets. When she hit the first target, she just shot through the arrow in the center of the target, and the little princess's skirt split because of the arrow. The princess was very angry and threw the little princess's bow into the stove. Angry and annoyed, the little princess picked up a sword and cut the tapestry embroidered with the whole family. Then she rushed out of the castle and ran into the forest on his mount. Suddenly, many blue elves appeared in front. They seem to have taken the little princess to a mysterious place. The little princess followed the direction pointed by the elves and came to a hut. There is a witch in it. She introduced many things to the little princess, but none of them were what the little princess wanted. The little princess told the witch what she thought, and the witch gave the little princess a cake with a spell. The little princess couldn't wait to return to the castle with the cake. The cake gave off an attractive smell, and her mother suddenly felt uncomfortable after eating it. Soon her mother became a big bear. This Xiong Xin was very kind and was soon discovered by King Fogg. The king and their soldiers caught the bear together. The little princess was so scared that he would pat her father to kill her mother. Suddenly, he remembered what the witch had said: "If you want to change your destiny, first look at your heart and bridge the gap blinded by vanity." She knew that her mother had become a bear because of her selfishness. In order to save her mother, she must get rid of selfishness and sew tapestries to be saved. The little princess found a needle and thread to sew a tapestry and saved her mother at the most critical moment.
This story makes me understand that people should have love, not selfishness.
Comments on "The Legend of Courage"
In this flashy age, I prefer to keep my heart simple. Although watching movies cares about exciting plots and gorgeous special effects, maybe when I walk out of the cinema, that kind of warmth is the most important thing for me, which is why I like to watch fairy tales over and over again when I was a child.
The trailer of the movie "Brave Legend" says: "No matter what age you are, home is an eternal harbor." This sentence really touched me, even if it was only the simplest sentence in this fairy tale.
Looking at Pixar's movies again, we will always feel those touching details, which are gorgeous but not complicated, surprising but not scary, romantic and warm, and touching people in laughter. I don't care that this movie is a adaptation of a fairy tale that nobody cares about. Some people will complain that the plot is old-fashioned, but the simple magic of fairy tales is irresistible to anyone, even if it is an expected happy ending, because those tragedies that break the ultimate beauty will only make me more complicated, and only a single peace is the soothing agent of society. I used to wonder why an unexpected ending is a good movie, an impetuous heart needs to be ready to accept exciting reality, or the uncertainty of the real situation has caused some kind of * * * sound in the audience's mind, why many people don't want to pick up their childhood fairy tales and immerse themselves in them, why don't they accept the fate of villains, and why they can't believe in the happy life of princesses and princes.
I don't want to talk about the plot of this movie, nor do I want to say that this movie has benefited me a lot. In fact, it is just a movie with a shocking scene but a simple plot, but it is really full of warmth after watching it.
"If you had the chance to change your destiny, what would you choose?" Melinda, the protagonist, asked this question, which has been floating in my mind since watching this movie. Merida changed her marriage with her actions, gained freedom and felt the warmth of home.
When Melinda covered her mother who had become a bear with a sewn blanket, the sun had already risen, but her mother still didn't change back to her original state. We all know it must be a happy ending, but when Melinda burst into tears and said that her mother didn't come back from a bear, that feeling would definitely touch everyone's heartstrings.
I prefer the English name of this film. As long as I use a simple English word Brave, that simple courage moves me even more. Perhaps what the film wants to tell us is only courage, but what is hidden in courage is family, expectation and a brave and simple wait-and-see outlook on life. Pixar's story about women can't help but remind me of Miyazaki Hayao's animation and Jane? The book "Love" is precious to women's firm character and free and brave performance.
When I grow up and have my own children, I will read those simple fairy tales to my children like ordinary parents, sweat for the tortuous complex like them, cheer for the happy ending and reveal my inner beauty.
I believe that what I pay homage to is the youth and rebellion that have not passed away, and the simplification of the complicated life that has not yet been faced.
I hope my future children can experience the same thing as me, and then return to innocent fairy tales and gradually understand the influence of fairy tales on the world.
