What animal spirit will your soul become?

I always wonder, if my soul can become an elf, what will it become, a cat, a bird or a fox? What animal do you want to be with? Speaking of these smart friends, you must know. Today, I will introduce you to the magical film directed by chris weitz in the United States in 2007. Douban score 6.4-Golden Compass.

? In a world similar to our earth, souls accompany people in the form of animals. If people die, animals will disappear. Children's souls can change into different animals, but when they grow up, their souls will be fixed into an animal, often an animal that reflects your personality. At the beginning of the film, the dust that connects many worlds and the golden compass that can explore all the truth are introduced. Although most of them were destroyed by the authorities, one book survived and only one person could read it. The story began to unfold around them.

The main character of the film is Anabel, a girl who is only 12 years old. She lived in Jordan University with her uncle since she was a child. She is warm, brave and full of sense of justice. The elf's name is Pan, and she likes being a mink best. She also has a good friend named Roger. There are often children missing nearby recently. On the day of the university dinner, a blonde woman came and successfully prevented the dean from educating Lila. The dean introduced her to Mrs. Colt, and Mrs. Colt told Lila a secret about the armed bear king, which won Lila's favor. She said that she was going to the North Pole, and hoped that Lila could be her assistant. Laila excitedly agreed. Before leaving, her uncle gave Lila a golden compass and told her about the world.

Laila set off with Mrs. Colt. Along the way, she just took Lila to various parties and didn't mean to go to the North Pole. Laila thought Mrs. Colt's behavior was strange, so she sneaked into Mrs. Colt's study and found a list compiled by Gobler with the name of her good friend Roger on it. It turned out that Roger and other children were taken to the North Pole for experiments. Laila wounded Mrs. Colt and ran away. He decided to go to the North Pole to save Roger himself.

Laila escaped, was saved by the gypsies, and went aboard with them to meet the king of the gypsies, Lord Fa. They taught her how to use the golden compass. Lila can see the truth of her problem. That night, Laila met the witch Serafin Na on the deck. She told Lila that the children were being held in Boluowang Ang, guarded by soldiers and their guardian wolves, and Lila would find help in Luo Song.

"I'm glad to see you alive, son."

In Luo Song, she met balloon pilot Lee, who told Laila.

"If someone is watching me, I will hire a balloon pilot and an armed white bear."

Eric the Armed Bear is a defected Prince the Armed Bear. He was drunk by the people in the city and took his armor, so he had to work for them here. Laila used the golden compass to see Eric's past and present, and the position of his armor. They got his armor back and went to the North Pole together.

"I am an armed white bear, and the battle is the sea to swim and the air to breathe."

Laila saw some scenes of the golden compass that night. He and Eric went to Billy without elves and knew that Gobler was studying separation. At this time, a group of people attacked them, took Lila and took him to the territory of the armed bear.

"A gift for Wang Xiong"

Seeing the armed bear king, Laila remembered the little secret told by Mrs. Colt.

"Armed Bear King always wanted an elf of his own."

She lied to bear king that she was Eric's elf. If Xiong Wang beats Eric one-on-one, she will become his spirit. When Eric came to save her, she told Eric that he would fight Wang.

"I should call you Lila, a golden mouth."

Finally, Eric won a one-on-one battle, became the king of armed bears, and sent Lila to Bolovan according to the previous agreement.

Laila went to the experimental station alone because the ice bridge on the cliff collapsed. The adults at the experimental station lied and tricked Lila into entering the experimental station.

"We are here to help children grow up."

Laila met Roger here. He tried to take the child away, but he was caught by the adults at the experimental station to do the separation experiment. At the last minute, Mrs. Colt appeared to save her and told her something about the experiment and her identity.

"Yes, Lila, you are my daughter."

However, Laila didn't fully believe Mrs. Colt. When Mrs. Colt asked her to hand over the golden compass, she gave her the sealed spy bee. After hurting Mrs. Colt, Laila broke the musical instrument and ran away with the children. There are layers of guards outside. At this time, gypsies, witches and Eric all came to help. They won the war and saved the children.

When it was all over, the children ran home cheering. Laila told Roger that she was going to find her father, Lord Aisley.

"That I also go. You said you would come to save me, and you came. "

The last scene of the movie is that they are sitting in a balloon spaceship. The witch and Li have a conversation about Lila's influence on the war.

"There is a prophecy about this child, and he will influence the coming war."

"What are you fighting for?"

"Nothing more than free will"

This has also laid some foreshadowing and questions for us.

? The Golden Compass is one of the dark matter trilogy adapted from philip pullman. However, during the screening, the box office and ratings were not high, and the evaluation was half good and half bad. As a film adapted from a magical novel with the same reputation as Harry Potter in the United States, it is really unsatisfactory. The previous story was too long, which caused many people to read it uninteresting. This is also the reason for the low ratings, there are too many foreshadowing. Why is Lila's mother not with him, why is her father matched with her uncle, and what is the purpose of the separation experiment?

However, as a fairy tale movie with a magical theme, his world setting is still very interesting. Human souls accompany us in the form of animals, which makes people yearn for it. We can't help wondering what kind of animals their spirits will be, full of fairy tales.

Of course, there are many hidden meanings in this film, which is worth pondering. For example, the appearance of elves in the form of animals implies that people live in harmony with nature. Adults' spirit is fixed according to their personality, while children's can really change with their mood, suggesting that adults' thoughts become solidified and single, while children are free and unrestrained, and their thoughts are free. Dust represents free will, and in western conservative theology, free will also represents impurity, so they do separation experiments to keep their children single and conservative. In the film, the adults organized by Gobler are metaphors of dictatorship and ignorant policies, while Laila is a representative of independent thinking and yearning for freedom. The golden compass represents the pursuit of truth and the exploration of facts. The rulers want to destroy the golden compass, which shows that they are afraid of truth and just want everyone to see what they want the people to see. Finally, fighting for free will also means resisting dictatorship and praising freedom.

I believe that our thoughts are free. We should not stop our imagination because of the growth of age and other external interference, because imagination is our precious wealth. I hope we can always be as imaginative and passionate as children, full of curiosity and love for the world. Dealing with problems also requires truth and longing for facts. I hope everyone can always be full of childlike innocence, and every day of life is happy. Love You!
