Confused reality, dream, drama, or confused personality

I like this drama very much. I believe that the second brush will have more experience. If you want to explore the truth, you need to clarify the context.

The front line, appearance, Weima's transformation from idol singer to actor, in addition to his inner resistance, his fanatical fan me-mania and the agent who split from singer Weima stayed in the United States, and insulted Weima's screenwriters and photographers. The killing of Shi, in the end, split into the pursuit of the singer Wei Ma, who stayed in the United States to kill Wei Ma. In the end, she was admitted to the hospital with schizophrenia and Wei Ma became a big star.

The second line, play, Double Bind (Double Bind, is a theory proposed by the famous British psychologist Gregory Bateson in 1956 about the etiology of schizophrenia (Double Bind Theory). It refers to a person communicating at the same time. The different levels of a person send conflicting messages to another person, who must respond, but no matter how he reacts, he will be rejected or denied, which can easily lead to a dilemma, and schizophrenia symptoms are an expression of this pain. )

The direction of this play is that two police officers, a man and a woman, are exploring a serial murder case. Wei Ma plays the sister of the model who was killed in this play. The character played by Wei Ma in the play suffers from a dissociative identity. Recognition disorder, the general plot is that she went to be a model and was raped, and then developed multiple personalities, fantasized about many murderers, and killed the perpetrators step by step. (But I remember that at the beginning of the film, the story in the play was about skinning, becoming a woman, etc., like the story of the Silence of the Lambs.)

The expression of this play is incomplete, and it is often divided by something, which means the heroine's reality and flashbacks in the play. This incomplete performance is more like a logical error in fantasy.

The third line, subconscious, Wei Ma actually said at the moment when the play and reality flashed back, Wei Ma said, my name is Yoko, I am a model, and the perspective of the interrogation room Huili is Wei Ma said, my name is Wei Ma , is a model. The arrangement of these two shots made me doubt the true direction of the show. In the film, the intertwined scenes and dreams and the waking up of the lost memories are very similar to the patients with dissociative identity disorder who often have fragmented memories. If this is the real world, then the real world is the drama in the second line, and Yoko just imagined himself as a singer Mima or a big star Mima, thus inverting the drama and the real world.

It is the director's way of interspersing the three, which makes the viewer feel like there is a broken line somewhere. The first thing that needs to be clear is whether our perspective is God's perspective or Wema's perspective. Maybe the director interspersed the two, but I prefer Wei Ma's perspective.

The bloody clothes found in the Weima room, is it a dream? If it's not a dream, is it made by studying in the United States? If not, is it the split of Weima (to be precise, the split of Yoko)?

If you think of the story as the third line, Mima is actually Yoko. She was greatly stimulated to split into actress Mima, singer Mima, Tiansuo, me-mania, Rumi and many other hallucinations. The appearance of Cham's combination is often from an objective perspective, and then there is the participation of studying in the United States, and sometimes there is also the viewing of me-mania. Is it just to confuse the audience? It can also be said that the combination of cham and the entire office are Mima (Yoko) fantasy.

Only the usual shopping, grocery shopping, and listening to music, Mima (Yoko), is real? That fantasy...is it powerful enough? After all, you have to fantasize about participating in the show, announcing your withdrawal from the group, and other people's comments on her, as well as comments on Wei Ma on the road (become an actor and become arrogant) Although these appearances will all appear at the same time. -mania, and finally tropical fish are not dead actually.

The photographers and screenwriters who were killed were not real photographers and screenwriters, but those who were persecuted by Mima (Yoko). The theories of Tiansuo, me-mania, and mental hospitals in the United States are all sealed under personality therapy. It can also be said that the policeman in the second-line drama actually built and disintegrated the world that Weima (Yoko) imagined for her as a psychiatrist in the third-line. Only at the end, Weima still lives in an inexplicable way. (including the nurse's comment at the end of the film, is that also a fantasy)

Anyway, the ending "I'm really oh" is weird. Really, those who have never killed people, those who may have been a little split but then all right, the great actor Mima. In fact, it has completely replaced Yoko, so how do you live on this fantasy? Is it possible to re-fantasy about things like filming? Still have to work, go to work, drive a car... I always feel that there are many contradictions everywhere, there must be other personalities here, and the main personality may have died out.

    Think of it as an animated movie from 1997! Many live-action movies today still can’t compare with their good intentions, sincerity, and results. In order to be confusing, Jin Min tried his best.

    This is a work that does not involve Hiraizawa Shin (hereinafter referred to as my uncle), but my uncle is full of it. Uncle Jin Min was a selfish little fan back then, and he painted the uncle everywhere! As for the work, let’s be honest, how many neon gold ideas Hollywood copied and didn’t pay for it? In the matter of literary and artistic work, geniuses are creating, and mediocrities are copying. It's a pity no one will ever be...
