After reading a few long commentaries, they all surfaced the director's thoughts and successfully fell into the pit carefully woven by the director. It seems easy to understand from the protagonist's drug use, but it is actually the ingenuity of the script. The two worlds have the same pros and cons, and the metaphors are connected. Just like Haruki Murakami's end of the world and a cold wonderland.

It doesn't matter if you only see the second layer, the look and feel of the film is also passing. Only when you understand the third layer can you know the director's true intentions and the core of the intention.

Bliss quotes

  • Greg Wittle: But it's also kind of beautiful. It is. Look, I mean, even with the cops coming and with us running and just... You know, everyone's playing their part, and we're all... like, we never know how it's gonna end. One minute, we're roller-skating and laughing. Remember? Yeah, and then the next minute, can't even afford a sandwich, and then the next minute, you never know. That's what I love about here and what you created. You don't know what's gonna happen. It's fucked-up. And it's great. And I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving.

  • Isabel Clemens: The thing is that... it's amazing how easy humans can get used to even something spectacular. Most people say, "Ignorance is bliss," but I say... you have to experience the good to appreciate the bad.

    Greg Wittle: No, the other way around.

    Isabel Clemens: Exactly.
