Kim Carrey is undoubtedly a weird expert, so that we can hardly associate it with adjectives such as warmth and simplicity, but forget that it is also an acting skill to develop the face in a geometric shape, and Kate Winslet is full of dramatic enthusiasm. , And who would care that her sturdy arms and heavy weight caused the drowning of a blonde boy on Titanic? In fact, in this film, she is not fat at all, her extremely iconic face and well-rounded figure exudes a beloved charm everywhere. In contrast, Dunst, who was so beautiful and horrifying at the time, has become shriveled. Bean sprouts.
The film won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay in 2004, and it deserves its name. Whether it is from the core of the story, the development of the plot, to the dazzling montage technique, it is far beyond what a vulgar name like "amnesia" can cover. The brilliant acting skills of the two protagonists are also regrettably concealed by the wonderfulness of the script. The main reason is that the narrative technique with flashbacks and circuitous is too clever, and most of the images exist in the memory and imagination of the male protagonist, which seems so romantic and dreamy. It's cute and childlike, and the idea of the film is so peculiar that people only admire it.
After falling in love, the first thing everyone can think of is to erase each other’s memories from their own minds, just like childhood embarrassment and shame, buried in a corner of the heart, hope never touch To that place.
Dunst quoted Nietzsche in the film, saying that
forgetting is a blessing, and the past mistakes have become perfect.
If there really is a clinic that can use unimaginable high technology to completely delete the unpleasant part of the patient's brain, then will you also go to visit it on a Valentine's Day after a broken relationship?
After encountering unfortunate results, the goodness of the past is really worthless and needs to disappear?
And after choosing to escape, when confronted with someone who had had an intimate relationship, it seemed that I was blissfully ignorant and innocent. Can others be treated as if nothing happened?
These kinds of question marks are the core of the film.
Kim and Kate are a couple in the film. Just like the quarrels and misunderstandings encountered by many couples, Kate chose to erase all the memories of Kim when he was angry and impulsive, and as revenge, Kim decided to do the same. matter.
During the consultation and surgery at the clinic, we saw through Kim's brain the scene where the two loved each other deeply. Many such memorable and cherished memories filled Kim's brain.
Kim also seemed to be reviewing his own feelings. He remembered the love at first sight when the two met, remembered Kate's "Never leave me" that Kate said to herself, and remembered the happiness that she had never had before lying next to her. Zi regrets that he hopes to cancel the request to delete the memory, but he has nothing to do when he is already in a drowsy state.
He could only try to convince Kate of his situation in his own memory, and the two of them worked together to find a way to protect their memories from being erased by the program.
This is where the film is quite creative. Kate suggested that Kim think about his childhood, the shame, the embarrassment, in short, the corners of these machines that are hard to reach, so we followed the screen and saw the two jumped into Kim's ridiculous Regrettably, in the trivial matter, it's just that no matter how you hide, you can't escape the deletion of kate by the program.
Finally, relying on the name of a place that Kate murmured before disappearing, Kim woke up with a blank memory and went to that place, and there was a second meeting with Kate, who was also a blank memory, and they The dialogue is exactly the same as the first time.
And this is the beginning of the film.
In addition to them, the film also described a girl played by Dunst who fell in love with the doctor who had a wife and children in the clinic and had a relationship with him. Then she erased all her memories because of regret, but fell in love again after erasing. After I got the doctor, I was finally discovered by the doctor’s wife before I realized everything I had done.
I don't want to talk about the attraction of fate here. It is just that if you want people to know it, unless you do nothing, choosing to forget is just to make people around you laugh more, and you will never become as clean as rebirth.
As mentioned at the beginning, the film is particularly eye-catching because of its narrative technique.
The flashback at the beginning, the interlude in the middle, and the process of love between the two are completely expressed by the images in the memory, which is very novel, and the end is the acceptance and continuation of the beginning.
At first glance, I might feel a little confused, but after watching the whole film, I felt a sense of feeling suddenly realized. This is a surprise.
This is the only movie I have watched that can be rated with 5 stars recently. I like it very much.
