I treat this movie as a literary film

The movie ended for an hour, but I was still shocked and there was no way to calm down. Lying in bed can’t fall asleep, my mind is full of scenes where the sky is spinning, flickering and shaking , I simply didn't sleep anymore and wanted to write something. This is the best movie I have ever seen. The title is so high that it makes people addicted to drugs, and every conflict and transition is cruel and disgusting. Although the plot is as chaotic as the shaking scenes of the movie, and although every plot is nasty, I still regard "Escape into Nothingness" as a literary film in my heart. In the end, I even felt sick. But I think that some plots are extremely disgusting, but I also think that every scene is very fresh. This is the purest literary film in my mind. Every lens is very clean and beautiful. A drug dealer who is addicted to drugs and relies on hallucinogens, and a woman who indulges in dancing behavior. They are brothers and sisters, but they have an unconcealed ambiguity besides the family relationship. Drug trafficking and showing off beauty, these are the two most traditional and most contemptible professions. This is a messy relationship. The drug dealer who shut himself up in the room and took drugs, threw away the slutty dancing girl who held himself in front of the man. This kind of emotion and entanglement between brothers and sisters, if left to anyone to talk about, will be talked about as vulgar and indecent. But this film is so beautiful and not dirty at all. The director is really amazing. How kind and tolerant a person can make the story of brother and sister incest so pure and natural. How sacred and detached is a heart to make the scene of indulgence and pleasure-seeking between dancers and people without fornication. My sister is not dressed up most of the time, but when she undresses and lies on the sofa and is pressed under her by a shrewd man, I think this scene is not pornographic. I almost cried, but I was moved by the director's kindness and generosity. This is a great director. A great movie will make the audience ineligible to blame the people who went the wrong way in the movie. Weak and thin with drugs in his hands, young boys who are not awake late at night, women with thin clothes and sweet faces but dancing, can I hate these two people who have no goals and a bleak future? To blame and slander them? Hehe, I am also worthy. When the almost naked dancer hugging her knees and crying on the sofa, the screen flickered and the dim light became intensely dazzling, and the woman who was looking for pleasure with a man suddenly became a little girl holding a teddy bear. When the camera looks back at that moment of childhood, I know I fucking love this director. Everyone who is still committing crimes was a helpless, heart-piercing child crying with a teddy bear, and every addict who flees into nothingness is a saint. When the movie began to force us to watch their childhood, the sister who stripped off her clothes and danced promiscuously became a little girl comforted by the warm eyes of her parents, and turned into a baby who was carried into the bathtub by her mother. And the older brother who walked down the path to trade with people carrying drugs, became the one who built a castle with sand with his father. little boy. The young siblings held hands and walked with their families on the road. When the innocent young sister sat on the swing and asked her brother if she loved him or not, their childhood was like that rusty swing, pushed into our eyes bluntly. These childhood scenes are calmly placed before us, so all the upright, legitimate, and just rules are lost. The director slapped all the noble and noble people with his calm and unremarkable childhood memories. You think that being decent means staying away from the edges, spurning the messy, and keeping a distance from all low-level things. But when you learn to show tenderness and indulgence to the most unbearable behavior one day, you may know that this is true nobility. The boy who used hallucinogens walked out of the room and started trafficking in drugs. Since then, the actor never shows his face in the movie. All we have left is his back. That thin, thin, silent and stubborn back is the brightest part in the movie. When a person chooses drugs and starts to sell drugs, he will never need any emotions and expressions in his life. A back view is enough. Comments on the Internet accused the director of showing off his skills with the shaking lens. I felt very sad to see these words. How can I bear to tell them that every detail of this movie is true. I don't think that the filming is too much, but I regret that the director is too restrained and conservative. Every frame of the movie is exactly the same as the most real state, and there is nothing out of the ordinary. The shot is too traditional. The author of a film review is right. Only those who have had the same experience can appreciate the director's good intentions. This work is too sincere. How can the most secret details be displayed so real. Compared with "Escape into Nothingness", all drug-themed movies are like a joke. As for the anti-drug classic "Requiem of Dreams", it is even more rubbish. I want to slap the director of "Requiem of Dreams", and then I want to kneel down for the director of "Escape into Nothingness". The trance, sinking, and loss after the hallucinogen is on. The dull strange eyes in the mirror. Slow action. Confused thoughts unable to concentrate. Staggering while walking. Speak a complete sentence hard and laboriously. The faint and dim lights on weekdays became dazzling. The ordinary street scene became clear and unfamiliar. The calm and contentment at the head. Anxiety and vulnerability during overdose. The room was spinning around the world, and the flickering light was shaking, the walls seemed to be cracking, and the floor almost collapsed. When the heartbeat speeds up and the time slows down, everything in front of you, from the lamp to the curtain, is flickering and shaking at the fastest speed. At the moment when the drugs were on, the whole world was trembling with its heartbeat. What you hear and what you see becomes clear and clear. See everything through in the most chaotic state. This situation is called flying. Is too high, no one is at the same height as you. Overdose is the most romantic thing in the world, but the sadness and loss caused by hallucinogens can also make people overwhelmed. The shaking camera shows more than just the feeling of taking drugs. Any sober person dares to say that he will be calm in his life. Chaos is dark and uneven, this is the normal state of life. From the moment of birth, ups and downs, changes and instability have been waiting for us on the road. Hallucinogens are the biggest scam in the world. Whether it is DMT or LSD, they are never hallucinogenic. They will only hold your hand, take you where you want to go, and let you see the most naked and ugly The truth. The rhythm of the movie is never lengthy and procrastinated, and the time after drug use is slower than in the movie. It is not easy for the director. It took only two hours to restore the ambiguity and confusion of time so real, and the whole story was told completely. Some people say that the content of this movie is empty, and the person who said this makes me want to laugh stupidly. The most real things are meaningless. Your so-called meaningful and valuable, the essence is very shabby and absurd. The most exciting moment in life is when you see through all the beginnings. The process and results are superficial and meaningless. So escaped into nothingness and, as Kundera said, celebrated meaninglessness. When a person finally learns to embrace superficiality and emptiness, every action he does is no longer a fall, but a redemption. After taking drugs, the most memorable things kept circulating in my consciousness repeatedly. This scene was too real. This is really an extremely conservative and introverted movie. Drug-themed movies are not ostentatious or arrogant at all. In short, the director is so good. I absolutely love this movie. It may be the difference between the East and the West. In the Asian environment, DMT is not considered a drug. It is generally believed that DMT is a pure natural plant such as Ayahuasca. It is not addictive to hallucinogens, nor is it like tranquilizers, analgesics and stimulants. That kind of synthetic pure chemical drugs hurt so much. Seeing both DMT and LSD as drugs in the movie really shocked me. When I didn't watch it, I thought the protagonist was knocking at something like methamphetamine. I don't think this is a flying film and taking a pill. Watching this movie in a sober state is scared to death. If it is not sober, I am afraid it will fall into the shadows. This is a very beautiful feature film, and I have finished telling a story very honestly about how two young people who have lost their souls take their lives seriously. This is the best movie I have ever watched, so it’s not boring to see more than two hours in the blink of an eye. The opening film made the people feel dry and the heartbeat accelerated, and the two-minute opening film made people instantly enter the state. But the ending makes people cold. money, power and sex. I did it all at the end Twenty minutes of love, once these intimate desires are uncovered for everyone to see, even the most intemperate person in the crowd will find it unappetizing. But even if the scene of sexual intercourse is so straightforward, this movie does not make people feel filthy and pornographic. At least I think the director's filming is very well-behaved and restrained. It's very clean and beautiful, and it's not pornographic at all. This is really an excellent movie. The theme runs through. From beginning to end. The birth and death of life. From birth to death. From sexual intercourse to abortion. People who avoid the truth cannot avoid pain. It's like a gun aimed at the hero's chest, and a knife inserted into the heroine's body. Only illusory hallucinogens can make people feel great satisfaction and softness in the emptiness during those hours of numbness.

But after the indulgence, there is endless loneliness and emptiness. I love this movie to death, but I am worried that I will not have the guts to watch it a second time on my own.

    Aerial perspective, floating around. Subjective lens, dangling. Life is nothingness, death is nothingness. Between death and life, there is nothing and nothing.
