frankenweenie
And once again, i will offer a round of applause to the morbid but undoubtedly talented Tim Burton.
i meant, he gave new life to black and white film, with an animation film, instead of the traditional femme fatale movies. how can you (yes you!) not give credit to him.
it was pure hard work producing this film. there was a ton of puppets made to get every expression and move accurate, and every one of them have movable joints so the animators could put them in different poses. imagine the rise in eye pressure and stiff joints.
it's a simple plot overall, nothing complicated. but nonetheless, the music, cinematography, editing, effects were good. like really good.
i think it's a pretty story, with its heart-wrenching bits in it.
pets and friends and relatives and family, they have a limited amount of time on this earth and we face the agony of losing them. it's something we can't choose to avoid. "Frankenweenie" brings hope to us, when Sparky was revived. but oh boy, we do know we can't actually connect the circuit back in our loved ones if they leave us. And in the same way, science also becomes a topic of interest in this movie. it does the same thing as this film, it brought light to humans. suddenly we discover we could do so much, so much to alter the nature. But there's always a downside, if it can do so much to help us, it can harm us with only the very same standards.
i guess humans are almost always blinded by greed that they forget the very sole purpose something was present for. people lose themselves and gradually, the world around them. and if they are ignorant about something, people refuse to admit their absence of knowledge, it's all shutting off and rejecting others thereafter. this is the adults favourite past time, sad to say.
although i'm legally an adult, i'm secretly a kid. okay, maybe not a secret. but the thing is, not to see people or know people based on their age, past, looks or gender. why can't we have a free and open mind, and it's true that adults don't know what they're talking about most of the time.
everything boils down to your heart. just do what you think is good, as long as it doesn't sacrifice or endanger another life. and as i was watching this film, i thought of my darling hamster. his fur, his eyes, his nose. when the movie ended with the happy reunion, i could feel him running inside of me again.
oh my god, i feel like crying all over again.
