It's a very good movie. When you watch Woody Allen's movie, you should be prepared to watch the subtitles. Rarely have you ever watched a dialogue movie and mulled over their lines. If you really want to think about it, this is a good movie. Woody Allen, as a master, I think many of his works contain his own views. For example, in this movie, I think Woody Allen is trying to interpret a problem, that is: when you like an artist, do you like the art itself, or do you like such a person. Until one day, when the protagonist himself found that his work was not as good as the work modified by a thug, he doubted his artistic creation ability even more, and at the same time he doubted his view of love even more. As he himself said, good artists can build their own set of ethical values ​​and live in a world of their own. However, the male protagonist gradually found that after making a movie with gangster investment. A lot of his values ​​were broken. From what I thought before, my art works, although there are obscure poem-like rhetoric, never change the lines. After that, I think that I should accept the mainstream needs to change my works. From his previous defense of his art work, he had to kick out the gangster girlfriend, and then later, he had to get along with the heroine. It's all a change. Or to use a popular saying, artists who do not know how to do what they like and do not know how to cater to the market will definitely be impoverished. Just like Van Gogh, only after his death can his works be discovered. Do real art and the market sometimes really have a paradox? But, in this movie, there are indeed a lot of them. As a result, the male protagonist needs his wife, and even if he is engaged in extramarital affairs, he hopes to be understood and valued. The male protagonist gradually falls in the process of defending his art gallery.

The director is great, he won't tell you the result, what he can do is like the hand of God, to arrange another interesting story for you. The story goes like this. A gangster who has been burning schools since he was sixteen, Gorgeously begins to help him rewrite the script. What's even more interesting is that after this script came out, it was even better than her own work. This is not important, this gangster was able to kill his boss's woman at the last moment in order to defend his work of art. This is an incredible thing in the eyes of the male protagonist. He is like many of us in our lives. There is so much to gain or defend. Including their own values, as well as their own art, their own career.

The orgasm came when the eldest woman was killed. First of all, as an artist, the male lead felt that, indeed, I must admit, that the artistic level of my script immediately improved when this woman didn't come. However, my values ​​tell me that killing is a beast. I'm not going to kill a dissatisfied heroine in my show for my art.

However, in contrast, it is a thug, who has artistic talent and is also a thug. I'm sure this dude doesn't expect to enter the entertainment world through art either. However, what he did was very simple. It was really annoying to find that the woman was blocking his script. I'm going to kill him. This is another way of thinking.

A person who says he is an artist can starve for art. But it will still be changed by reality. The other thug, however, felt that I changed the script and had a little success. This is my work. If any of you block my work, I will kill anyone, even at the risk of their lives.

Under the arrangement of the director, an unsolvable problem arises unconsciously. It is what pure art needs to defend. What's the bottom line? To put it more universally, after what we want is impacted by reality, how much strength are you willing to use to defend your fruit?

The director gave a very wonderful explanation, and found out what he is good at, if you really can't, quit!

All in all, this is an awesome piece of work! Bullets and Broadway. Rather, reality and art. For me, it is a reality and a dream! Thinking about it too much, this is a very helpless thing.

    8. Woody Allen's dark humor. The gang made this drama. In the end, David's arguing downstairs and upstairs is the funniest.

    A true artist is not afraid and far from life. The moments of true genius are eloquent and unafraid of death threats. The rest are lies and hypocrisy. 8.0
