Plot introduction
Guide dog Xiao Q is a dog with Labrador descent. It is different from other dogs when it was born, and it has a special birthmark-a brown mark like a winged bird. Because of its excellent quality, Xiao Q, who was born soon, was chosen as a guide dog by his owner. This is Xiao Q's first parting.
Because Xiao Q is too young, he must live in a human family for a period of time and cultivate feelings with human beings. Therefore, it was placed in the home of Ren Jing and his wife, who named him Xiao Q (meaning the wings of a bird). Living with adoptive parents for one year is the happiest day for Xiao Q. Mr. and Mrs. Ren Jing love Xiao Q very much and gave him his first gift since he was born, a brown teddy bear. After waking up, Xiao Q found the teddy bear in front of his nest. He was curious and kept playing with it. Although he was very happy, he soon came to the day when he was separated from Mr. and Mrs. Ren Jing. One day a year later, Tawada from the training camp came to pick up Xiao Q. On the day of parting, Ren Jing and his wife took Xiao Q for a walk. They walked with Xiao Q for a long time. They hope that this road will never end, so that little Q can be with them forever. But it's impossible. When they saw the car in the training camp parked in front of their home, they had to give little Q to Mr. Tawada. Xiao Q was taken to the car and the car slowly drove away. Q looked at Ren Jing and his wife outside the car with his innocent eyes in the back window. In an unfamiliar environment, Xiao Q shows different qualities from other dogs. The training days were hard, but Xiao Q persisted. Near graduation, Xiao Q met his first "master", Mr. Watanabe, a blind man. Mr. Watanabe is a stubborn guy. He dislikes dogs by nature. He thinks blind male bamboo is much more reliable than guide dogs. However, guided by a coincidence, Mr. Watanabe's idea began to change, and he began to try to contact guide dogs. However, due to Mr. Watanabe's stubbornness, he failed in the first graduation exam, and Watanabe seems to have realized something. In the subsequent training, Watanabe was no longer opinionated, and soon Mr. Watanabe graduated with Xiao Q. Mr. Watanabe took Xiao Q home, and his affection for Xiao Q increased day by day, but the good times did not last long. Due to serious physical exhaustion when he was young, Mr. Watanabe fell ill due to severe diabetes and renal failure and had to stay in the hospital. At this time, Xiao Q had to return to his previous training camp. When he was taken away by Mr. Tawada that day, Xiao Q still looked at the owner of the hospital bed with his pure eyes. How he wishes his master would get better soon and take himself out to play. I was really uncomfortable when I saw Mr. Watanabe and Xiao Q waving goodbye. After being taken back to the training camp, Xiao Q can only see the new guide dog training with his master. At this time, he missed his master Mr. Watanabe very much. Xiao Q lived here for three years. One day, Mr. Watanabe suddenly appeared in the training camp, because he felt that his health was declining, so he wanted to meet Xiao Q as a friend and let Xiao Q lead the way again. Although I was unable to travel because of Mr. Watanabe's health after walking only 30 meters, this was the last time that Xiao Q led the way for Mr. Watanabe, and Xiao Q was facing another parting ... Soon, Mr. Watanabe died of illness. At the memorial service, Xiao Q looked at Mr. Watanabe in the coffin. Xiao Q just thought he slept peacefully. ...
Then Xiao Q spent the next seven years in training camp. Seven years later, retired Xiao Q returned to his adoptive parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ren Jing, who had named him. Looking at the familiar fabric teddy bear, Xiao Q feels so familiar.
After returning home, Xiao Q's health began to deteriorate. I didn't know Xiao Q had leukemia until I took him for examination. Mr. and Mrs. Ren Jing were very sad, but there was nothing they could do. They can only try their best to help him and ease his pain. They have been with Xiao Q, but Xiao Q's condition continues to deteriorate. On the 25th day after Q 12' s birthday, he dreamed that he was a child again. ...
Guide dog Q was moved to the back of the movie.
Xiao Q, a guide dog who claims to have touched 100 million audiences in Asia, actually has nothing new in movies, such as old-fashioned human-dog affection, common Japanese movie style and dull actor performance. One and a half hours of the film, the most impressive is the first 15 minutes, from the blindfolded dragon born in Xiao Q to the stumbling exploration of the world, from playing with the bear doll to the sadness of separation at the age of one. Xiao Q in the film is like a child who is expected and cared for by his parents. Moreover, we have also experienced some joy in practicing.
Movies are the essence of life. Movies that make people feel good reject many things that make people feel bad. For example, if you don't see sleeping with five puppies, maybe two of them will shit and pee on you; Imagine who will clean up the mess after five puppies finish playing the net. Not to mention spending money to buy it in the supermarket; Do you like gardening? Do you think the puppy only jumps in occasionally? However, the Japanese attitude towards puppies seems unknown. Just like the father who walked the dog, he went home from work to see if Xiao Q slept well. It's all about how parents treat their children. It makes people feel that this movie is intentionally sensational. The first half of the film tells about the growth of Xiao Q, always centering on Xiao Q, and the second half joins the blind Watanabe, using a lot of space to show Watanabe's character. Seeing-eye dog Xiao Q completely echoed by the side. Quietly, Xiao Q degenerated into an ordinary guide dog, even more pitiful than nagging Watanabe. At the same time, there are not many clips in the film that show the intimate relationship between the two. The most emotional moment is Watanabe's performance when he meets again in the training center.
However, "Guide Dog Q" is actually the producer's serious attitude towards the film. It is conceivable how difficult it is to shoot with dogs as the leading role and how much patience photographers need. For example, in a scene, Xiao Q is woken up by the father who walks the dog and goes back to sleep. There is a shot where you can see Xiao Q's eyes slowly closing. Think about how difficult it is to shoot this shot and how long it will take to train the puppy to adapt to the camera (don't tell me I took medicine). Another clip is a close-up of little Q cross-eyed looking at the caterpillar on his nose; There are also clips of Xiao Q sleeping on the grass and dreaming about bears, and then waking up to find them. Almost all the commendable scenes appeared in the first 15 minutes of the film. Later, the less such scenes, the more I felt that the film tended to be dull. Including the two deaths of Watanabe and Xiao Q.
The film introduces Xiao Q's birth, growth, training and everything about Watanabe with a voiceover. Halfway through the film, I realized that it was Mr. Watanabe's eldest daughter who was speaking. The truest idea is that she has never actually experienced the life before Xiao Q came to her house. She just heard it from hearsay and couldn't prove it. So the authenticity of the first half of the film is greatly reduced. I think it will be better to use the voice-over of the dog training captain in the first half of the film and the voice-over of Mr. Watanabe's eldest daughter in the second half, at least there will be less doubts in my mind.
Seeing-eye dog Xiao Q is worth seeing and experiencing some cultivation feelings.
