When the first time she began to face with the real society which was full of improbity and temptations?including gold, greed and supremacy , she felt very frightened and hopeless. Thanks to friends’ help, finally she became a brave, perseverant girl. It tells us that we can’t grow up all by ourselves and we will never learn to be independent if we invariably stay with parents. Besides, I do appreciate the symbolism applied in this movie: 1.eat：“eat” in this cartoon seems to refer to desire and greed related to monsters. Chihiro’s parents couldn’t help eating the delicious food and became pigs. Faceless men in the bathhouse ate more and became more evil. 2. name：the name here becomes a connection to the real world . One of the most critical points is that names of those who lo
