Actually, personally, I want to give 5 stars.
Some films that can make me feel the director's strong personal feeling of "carrying private goods" may be easier to drive my emotions. For the public, this may not be a clear and impactful suspense film in the traditional sense, but its conception, completeness, self-consistency, control of details and foreshadowing, and brain-burning degree, all fully reach the level of a movie. The standard for a good suspense movie. As a preliminary fan of suspense movies, after watching some standard mature suspense blockbusters, I feel the uniqueness of this film and the personal label of the director. There are few scenes in the story, and the plot is almost only "meeting parents" and "buying ice cream", but each character has a key mapping and is closely connected in shaping, enough to project a complex and profound fantasy world.
Some people think that it "escapes into nothingness", too "stream of consciousness" and "alienation", and some people comment that the foreshadowing on the way home is too strong and lengthy. Yes, but this narrative is exactly what I like about it. Kaufman's pessimism and existentialism are highlighted in this slightly exhausting dialogue. The hero and heroine talk about physics, painting, poetry, decades of In the role of the crowd, the female protagonist keeps repeating "I want to end all this" and the male protagonist's strange ability to listen to the voice seems to exist. In addition to explaining the relationship and character background of the two, this paragraph also completely places the audience's point of view on On the heroine, a viewpoint dislocation is caused, which helps to promote the biggest reversal in the following text.
My favorite scene in the film is the female protagonist standing in front of the stooped cleaner and seeming to angrily tell the reason for her "existence" and "who will remember what he looks like?" She was silent for a moment and hugged with tears in her eyes. he. She doesn't say anything, but we all know it's a silent but real goodbye between a fantasy character and her "master".
The film is adapted from a novel, and the plot can still feel the taste of literary treatment, but I also like this kind of literary tendency, such as "A Man named Ove Decides to Die" and "A Clockwork Orange", in which you can find other A clear difference in the film. In the end, I only gave 4 stars, because I expected that the upward part should be removed from the ending, and the dance part brought the audience's emotions to a climax. Jack decided to kill the alien elements in his body, so as to reduce the tragedy and move towards peaceful loneliness The ending might be better.
