"Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead" has a strong theatrical stage style, and has a novel sense of absurdity in its performance techniques. Director and screenwriter Tom Stoppard integrates his dramatic talents and linguistic talents into deconstruction in a philosophical context, and reconstructs a seemingly familiar but completely new "irrational world" in the form of rationality. The opening, climax, and ending were all used by him to create a variety of alienated and cordially absurd images, and the reversed relationship between the characters and the established death fate in the film all hinted at the chaos, disorder and ambiguity of life in the wave of time and space. Stoppard seems to be using this play to insinuate the destiny that everyone cannot escape. People are like a drop of water in the tide of history. One day, the tide rises high and is pushed to the top of history, being manipulated left and right, up and down , One day the tide receded and the waves disappeared, and they could not help but merge into the waves of the sea, and disappeared ever since. Under the push of fate, everyone falls into the one-way trend of time, feeling the helplessness brought about by the nihilism of history and the alienation of the world

GO and TR play the two most common types of people in life: GO is dumb and dull and content with the status quo, and all his ingenious thoughts are used to find ways to play some flowers around, so he doesn't understand TR's mourning, and he has to poke it from time to time. Just tease him; TR is vigilant and suspicious of everything, always thinking about who I am, where I am from, and what I am doing, and always gives the nagging GO a look of disgust at the mentally retarded. But the reality is so cruel, no matter if you are confused, or if you try hard, a small person is always a small person. You can't change the plot or make any waves. You can only silently watch other people's earth-shattering events, participate in confusion without knowing it, and finally suddenly be fateful. Write to death and become a painless line in the script.

I watched the last part of the script again today. The movie can't be put down. The secrets of fate and reincarnation are hidden in the humorous language. Confusion and doubt are just unnecessary protests. The script has been written long ago. This is what the book says. tragedy. Several sections in the movie are extremely powerful, and the whole movie is full of joy and weird atmosphere, I have already laughed miserably.

Rosencrantz: [Rosencrantz and Guildenstern have read the switched letter and learned that they will be executed] They had it in for us, didn't they? Right from the beginning. Who'd have thought we were so important?
Guildenstern: But why? Was it all for this? Who are we that so much should converge on our little deaths?
The Player: You are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. That's enough.
