Since the broadcast of the Grimm's Fairy Tale Variations "The Pied Piper of Hamelin", it has attracted widespread attention and discussion on all major social platforms.Whether on Douyin, Weibo, or other social platforms such as Bilibili, people are sharing videos, plot content, and various impressions about the show.Today, the editor will talk to the audience about the plot and 4 analysis of the Netflix animation - Variations on Grimm's Fairy Tales: The Pied Piper of Hamelin - even if the outside world is ugly, it can also be beautiful.

Charlotte: “Why don’t the people of Hamey pay the piper to help them rid the town of rats? William: ”I guess they don’t think it’s worth the price. Charlotte: “But a promise is a promise,He got rid of the mice as promised”Jacob:“They didn't seem to mind breaking their promise, that's why the piper took the children away”William:“In the end they lost something more important than money”Charlotte:“ThenWhere are the children?What happened to them after that?They were taken away by the piper and lived happily ever after, right?That must be the case”

《Variations on Grimm's Fairy Tales: The Piper of Hamelin》The character of Maria was initially used as a starting point to describe her family, her personality, and the environment in which she lives.From the plot, we can know that the village written by Maria is led by “Big Butler”, and she rules here with an iron fist, so all rules are absolute.Compared with the original story of “The Piper of Hameln”, the background is the life of common people in European society in the 13th century. The closed village in the Grimm's Fairy Tale Variations The Piper of Hameln has already been hinted to a certain extent.Here are some details:

The teacher likes Maria, but it is absolutely impossible for him to be attracted by the big steward, because he is just a teacher, neither strong nor good at farming~ But what I want to mention is that the male and female families in this village are almost all the big stewards.When it was decided at the dinner table that the steward was going to marry Maria to Lucas, she only insisted on her own opinion, and this can be seen when I saw that Maria was not repelled and even considered the idea of ​​marrying someone who would be loved.The relationship between men and women in the village has “norms”. They are not allowed to fall in love with their own ideas. Marriage and family are not established because of love, and the word “lover” cannot be used (because this is considered obscene and immoral).So when the teacher saw the painting of a couple given by the traveler, he was so frightened that he threw the painting back. This move showed the teacher's inner conflict, because he would write his love for Maria privately, but when he saw the painting of a coupleSometimes I dare not instinctively resist the love between men and women.His conversation with the traveler was like being impacted by different ideas from outside, inspiring different feelings. From my point of view, the traveler was contrasting with the closed-mindedness of this small village, and also encouraging people to seek the outside world or immigrate.The traveler brings the colorful and loving thoughts of the outside world to the teacher and Maria. The teacher's actions set off ripples and a storm in Maria's heart!

The audience may find that the Flutist of Hamelin - Variations on Grimm's Fairy Tales - are people who are impacted by the outside world, and their thoughts will be determined by the thoroughness of the system's indoctrination, as the teacher said at the end“The outside world is very dangerous” (this proves that the teacher's ideas were also copied into the head by the big manager); on the other hand, Maria, who is full of doubts about the system, will think that the outside world can also be beautiful.

The big steward prohibits anything from the outside that can affect the mind from coming to the village because she believes that there is a lot of ugliness in the outside world that no one can bear, and the complexity outside will also affect everyone's thinking.It is true that the chief manager is closed, but her idea is not completely unreasonable. After all, she is managing this village, and everyone needs to do farm work and work wholeheartedly, so that they can “ survive”, and those relationships between men and women or entertainmentSuch things will only make people indulge in such complexity and pleasure, and will distract people from the things they should be focusing on.

“What if I didn't have the baby?Will I be slaughtered like this chicken?Lucas is a vain fool and she is a rough person. He will probably hit me once we get married. After all, he likes to bully the weak, but I don't mind. Besides Lucas, there is no other man suitable for me, so there is no way ”

The scene has an interesting twist when Maria wants to get the painting, because we see Maria's manipulation of the teacher, “Teacher, where did you get this painting?”, in turn, the teacher also manipulated Maria, and both of them got the results they wanted in a “reward exchange” way, - The Piper of Hamelin, Variations on Grimm's Fairy Tales - the screenwriter used thisThe story line highlights that in this closed village, everyone is not pure and innocent, and has potential desires and greed, but everyone is suppressing it. Usually, if thoughts are suppressed for a long time, they will only become more and more mature.The critical point even makes people distort and realistic to get what they want.In the middle plot of the Brothers Grimm's Variation "The Pied Piper of Hamelin", the teacher portrayed by the screenwriter has such greed. He behaves like a boss and wants to keep people around.I think this echoes the ending of Grimm's Fairy Tales Variations: The Piper of Hamelin - in the ending, the teacher climbs on the stone and cries to the traveler not to take Maria away. As an echo, the traveler says "Shall I take her away?"It's not like that, she is following me. Those who can leave will leave, and those who can stay will stay. No one can force you“. To put it bluntly, - The Pied Piper of Hamelin, Variations on Grimm's Fairy Tales -It’s not Maria’s resistance to the traditional values ​​of the big steward (in fact, the audience can also find that Maria almost never resists the big steward, she just says what she says, but she still does it), so - Grimm’s Fairy Tale Variations Hamelin’sPied Piper--In the ending, Maria just seizes this opportunity to make a choice~

The big steward said: ”There is a lot of ugliness out there that you won't tolerate. Maria: “I think I understand now why the big steward wants to ban beautiful or beautiful things, because beautiful and beautiful things allow people to be free and expand their horizons.The world, changing people, there are more beautiful and wonderful things than this, right?”Traveler“ Do you want to see it?You may see something uglier and scarier Maria. It doesn't matter, that's beautiful too. In the ending of the Grimm's variation on the Pied Piper of Hamelin, there are two storylines.

One is, can Maria find the traveler?

The other is that the teacher did not promise the same reward to the traveler, so he lost the more precious Maria.As for why the flute player escaped and used the sound of the flute to attract Maria, I think the reason is that the reward given by the teacher to the traveler is not equal, because I was personally surprised when I saw that the traveler was actually handcuffed. Of course, the teacher would do this.Because he was afraid that the traveler would be discovered by the people in the village, but it was not equal to the traveler who wanted to stay for a night, so he was treated like this by the teacher here, which also let him know how closed-minded the people in the village were~

So I think the sound of the traveler's flute is not just a call to Maria, but a call to those people in the village who may be willing to leave here. Maria is basically not found by the traveler, nor does she find the traveler, but the traveler.Maria was moved” by the sound of the flute. She will be moved and excited by such beautiful things. Only those who really want to leave and explore the beauty outside, so they make the decision to leave here in their hearts (this is whyThere is a scene where other villagers find the music harsh).In addition, in the ending, the audience may wonder why the traveler disappeared?But in fact the traveler merged with Maria, so Maria's hair turned red and her eyes green, and then she embarked on the journey.
