China News Service, Beijing, July 20 (Reporter Gao Kai) As a well-received member of the 2022 summer season, the film "Mozart in Outer Space" seminar was held in Beijing a few days ago. This "Opening the Blind Box for Growth" 's film, considered "a glimpse into the power of dreams".

  "Mozart in Outer Space" is directed by Chen Sicheng and co-stars Huang Bo, Rong Zishan, Yao Chen, etc. It tells the story of the mysterious alien "Mozart" on the earth's fantastic journey, and explores the growth of teenagers and the Chinese-style parent-child relationship.

  Well-known experts in the field of literature and art, education and psychology were invited to the seminar on that day, and the film was discussed and analyzed in depth from various perspectives such as the film's theme, artistic features, educational value, and parent-child relationship.

The meeting was chaired by Song Zhiqin, executive deputy director of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Film Art Center.

  Zhang Zhijun, a researcher at China Education Television, believes that the film is a work of serious educational significance with "comedy for the purpose and education for the body".

From the perspective of artistic exploration, it has three values: First, it is entertaining.

The performances of Huang Bo, Yao Chen, and Fan Wei added a lot of natural comedy elements to the film. This comedy element is not pure farce, but wraps up real problems such as family education. The biggest highlight is Ren Dawang, played by Huang Bo. Finally, he had an epiphany through his father's mirror-like reflection.

The second is to put deeper than shallow.

Many comments on the Internet are relatively superficial. In fact, this work is for children, and it must be made simple and easy to understand. This is its characteristic, avoiding the embarrassment of constantly answering 100,000 whys when taking children to watch movies.

The third is to live in harmony.

Compared with the previous film directed by Chen Sicheng, this film has an artistic continuation and an artistic exploration.

  Rao Shuguang, president of the China Film Critic Society, believes that the film is based on the relationship between father and son, observes the world from the standpoint of the child, and expresses the current relationship between father and son. Adjustment in line with human nature to achieve a certain balance.

"We can't just start from ourselves, but more from the other side's standpoint to make adjustments, so as to be more conducive to the growth of young people and the all-round development of people. The film is a family-friendly film with a mix of genres. The audience is different according to age and gender. The differentiation and differentiation are becoming more and more obvious. If you want to achieve resonance and resonance at the maximum level and make the market active, mixing types is a better way. And we also need to further explain in theory, how to mix other elements in one type. To meet the diversified needs of a larger level. Chinese films now particularly need imaginative films, films with expanded genres, and films that can bring happiness to the audience. In this regard, "Mozart in Outer Space" is very successful. "Rao Shuguang said.

  Lian Baojun, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of China Education Press, believes that the film directly confronts issues such as parent-child relationship, youth values, outlook on life, etc., as well as philosophical issues, pedagogy issues, psychological issues and social issues. Movie.

From the perspective of parent-child relationship, the relationship between parents and children should move from the relationship between subject and object to the relationship between subject and object, otherwise it will be out of balance.

As a subject, each person faces a different world, feels the world, and knows the world differently. If parents always unconsciously impose their own knowledge, understanding, and feelings on the world on their children, it will cause the children's self-identity to be blurred, confusion.

As a parent, the biggest problem is the lack of understanding the child as an independent individual, to respect his independence and autonomy, and to take "all for your own good" as the reason for all actions, but love is inexhaustible, unable, Injustice is precisely the most prominent problem facing family education at present.

Parents should bring their children to watch this movie and play its role in entertaining.

  Cao Wei, deputy director of the Educational Growth Research Center of Beijing Normal University, believes that this is a fantasy, comedy, and family-themed film for children.

The film conveys warmth, growth, emotion, dreams, etc. in the form of comedy, and realizes the power of love in laughter.

She talked about two feelings: first, the role of parents.

The conflict between the father and son of Ren Dawang and Ren Xiaotian runs through the whole film. Compared with the stereotyped preaching, the comedic expression is easier, closer to life, and easier to get closer to the audience, especially the children.

In an entertaining way, the film subtly integrates the value position and attitude into the story with the help of film technology and expression techniques, and completes the thinking of reality and enlightenment of the mind in the laughter.

  Yao Ping, a lecturer at Peking University's School of Psychology and Cognitive Sciences, explained how children realize their dreams and how parents can fit their children's dreams from a psychological perspective.

From a parent's point of view, how to love and understand children is difficult.

"From the film, we can see that the conflict between the father and son is one of the common forms of conflict in Chinese culture. The characteristics of the education of the elders to the younger generation are to guide the children according to their own life experience, thinking that the children are the continuation and hope of self-worth. From the child's point of view, happiness is to do what one wants to do independently. Only by considering the proper development of one's talents, characteristics and preferences can one get real happiness. The film focuses on an ordinary child, alluding to the vast majority of real life. Some ordinary families."

  Wang Chun, director of the Film Theory Research Department of the Film Art Center of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, believes that on the whole, the film has opened up new space and possibilities in the creation of a series of films, and more mature directors like Chen Sicheng should be encouraged to pay attention to such films Create, and launch more masterpieces for Chinese youth-oriented films.

  Du Xia, an associate professor at the Department of Education of Beijing Normal University, believes that most Chinese-style parents educate their children according to the logical method of "doing what you want to others".

It is worth pondering that many children are now suffocated and uncomfortable by being wrapped up in the name of love.

The director of "Mozart in Outer Space" uses an artistic rather than a scientific way to solve and answer the ultimate question. This kind of cherishing and caring for the free will of human life is particularly precious.

  Zhu Song, an expert from the Chinese Psychological Society, analyzed the characteristics of the film from a psychological point of view and believed that the film was very enjoyable to watch.

Ren Xiaotian, the protagonist of the film, belongs to the ordinary world, while Mozart comes from the extraordinary world. The protagonist should leave his real life to go on an adventure in the fantastic extraordinary world, and finally return to the real life to complete the spiral of his growth.

  On the issue of family education, Yu Lina, an associate professor at the School of Journalism and Communication of Capital Normal University, believes that parents should first affirm their original intentions, but at the same time parents are also faced with a dilemma. In today's environment, children with poor academic performance will also face the problem of five or five diversions.

Family education is a real issue, and we cannot blindly think that parents are stubborn to turn their children into people who fulfill their wishes with prejudice.

  Zhu Yuqing, founder of Juyinghui, pointed out that the film is a real summer film, which is very suitable for the majority of young audiences to enter the theater to watch.

The film shows young people's desire for equality, freedom, dreams and the unknown world, and speaks their hearts.

Secondly, the film's discussion of parent-child relationship is very valuable, worthy of in-depth exploration by experts in the fields of education and psychology.
