It just makes the boring even more boring

Saying it is a movie is more like an essay, revealing a strong literary quality.

It's like an essay novel mixed with poetry, prose, and argumentative essays. It's literary enough, but it doesn't look good, at least for me.

It's kind of interesting, it's kind of special, it's worth it, and maybe I'll like it a few years back, but right now, I really don't like it. It may be that I have thought too much in the past few years, especially when I know that the only question and no one knows the answer, everything seems even more powerless and pale.

Only a wasteland remains.

It's not bad movie, just I don't like it.

Yes, there is only one question, but unfortunately no one has an answer. But I'm still desperately discussing, discussing human nature, discussing truth, discussing the universe, nothingness, existentialism, all kinds of doctrines, all kinds of religions, I'm tired of it, and I don't even want to rate it.

Because it just makes boring even more boring.

    4.5, the top ten of 2020. Both Nolan and Kaufman have made works about "time". The interesting thing is: Nolan wants to make 007, and there are similar places in Creed. Kaufman has prepared a musical before (Kaufman said that this is his last It was a director's work, so that work should have died prematurely), this one uses the elements of singing and dancing, and the two of them have a certain meaning. The whole movie is like a cold wind blowing on the face, and the front is like the embodiment of the female protagonist's confusion about life (a large section of the car scene thought she was watching Abbas), embarrassing and somewhat strange atmosphere, to After school, all the previous ones were strung together. Although it didn’t make sense, but the senses were perfect, Kaufman’s script had to be accepted; the photography was quite good, I liked this photographer’s style before, and this time I visited the hostess’ home The moments are quite well presented, the art of photography is highly coordinated with the atmosphere and the psychology of the characters; the sound design is great, especially after being bombarded by the sound effects of "Creed", you will understand better that good sound effects are not just perfect Analog (Creed), it can also be very layered and atmospheric.

I'm Thinking of Ending Things quotes

  • Young Woman: Happiness in a family is as nuanced as unhappiness.

  • Young Woman: I don't think Jake wants me down there.

    Mother: Jake can be controlling. You can't allow him to control you. I think it's the other side of his type of personality, this diligence thing, needs to control everything! There are so many, many things that make him nervous and he keeps closing off more and more of the world. It's a problem! And the few people he does have left in his life follow all sorts of rules, it really is a problem. I guess I'm probably to blame. All this guilt causes me to feel obligated to bend over backwards to accommodate his every little whim, it's a vicious cycle!

    Young Woman: So what exactly are you saying to me?

    Young Woman: I'm saying take the darn nightgown to the basement. Live dangerously.
