The Phantasy of He is
a fantastical story about a young boy that learns to confront his dreams and
make them what he wants them to be. And in the end shows his dream off for the
world to see.
I love how the boy’s dream is a real tangible object. It
makes the story and the ideas behind it much more intriguing. It’s not the boy
changing his mind or feelings, but taking this black object out from his ear
and sewing all his favorite things to it. He literally makes his dream his own
creation instead of being ruled by it despite what everyone else tells him. I
think it’s a message that always needs to be retold, and doing it with a
literal dream makes gives it a childish touch of fantasy.
I think it is a good choice that everything is told from the
child’s point of view. The voice sounds so innocent and childlike. Like when he
does what he is told so he won’t be reprimanded by the grownups. That is how a
child would rationalize.even the word choice sounds child-like at times, and then very sophisticated in others, but I think the blend works.
