Even if you are a genius, you are still in the dust.

Because I don’t have money, it’s not that I’m penniless--have a decent job, a middle-to-upper-level income, advanced education, a good appearance, have savings, and live in the most decent place in a certain city--but I don’t have money. , There is not enough money to make me free.

This book is very ordinary, nothing special. But the sad part is that I still have talents and ideals.

This time I was humble and angry again because of jealousy of others-the kind of rich, talented and free person.

For example, playing with a cat, I'm exhausted, and she jumps everywhere gracefully.

So, I watched this movie indifferently, once recorded, and I had a conversation with myself without preparation.

If you are a genius, you are an artist. You will be miserable. Because you have to split at any time for those crazy, those elements that maintain your genius thinking and behavior, even if you follow yourself, there are times to deviate.

If you are a genius, you never wanted to be an artist. You will also be miserable. Because your places that are not part of ordinary life will not be understood and not recognized. And you will also walk on the balance of daily life and genius, and you will fall at any time.

Just like Philip Moss in this movie, he is an ordinary worker or clerk, he has an ordinary wife, an ordinary family, an ordinary friend, and an ordinary boss. He has been living an ordinary life. I say ordinary, it is a kind of ordinary, there is no abnormality, it is a kind of understandable, even if people in this life circle have different personalities and different backgrounds. And because of chance, just because he wanted to record, he picked up his video camera and wanted to record his newborn daughter.

In fact, living here is still life, it's just life through the camera, he just used his usual vision to record, as an ordinary person.

Artists are also ordinary people and have ordinary needs.

And our protagonist lies in his being above ordinary needs and his imagination of the other side. A quiet life may be what I pursued at the beginning, and the imagination of the other side makes life never peaceful.

His wife was on this shore, and Philip began to stand in the same place with his wife. He wanted to go there, but she didn't want to.

Do you choose to be a genius or not?

In this contradiction, the logic shown by the film is as follows:

because he is a good person, he got what he wanted. At the same time, because he is a genius, he can almost touch the other side he wants, and he is almost famous. The director's intention allows us to see the pain and torture of a split, and the intention allows us to see a contradiction.

Let us not discuss the relationship between art and life. I'm talking about geniuses and ordinary people, there is no obvious separation. If they are separated, geniuses will be completely crazy, and will pursue a pure other side with pure behavior. And ordinary people will not know what this other side is, and geniuses will never know. .

But the meaning of the other shore is that it cannot be reached, it is that you are on this shore, that it is your lack, in the end, what? This ordinary person with artistic talent aimed the camera at himself, and then there was life waiting for him. Therefore, the film was named "Movie Fan", Amator, a lover, a pursuer, a person who has a strong passion for a certain goal, and at the same time, he is still a layman.

I don't care what kind of life he will lead next, how to walk among his artistic talents and ordinary people, because life is the same. I was just embarrassed and angry again, using the most vulgar language and behavior to show the different elements that I might have.

Many people do. Thought it would be different.


Okay, I admit that your talent and keen, you will have what kind of work, but in the end we born
alive.

Perhaps we are tired of the genius that exists in us. Like Philip, it hurts oneself and others.

One hundred percent of the ideas, too much is too late.
