After reading it, I didn't think it was a comedy, but I took a deep breath and sighed that the world is hell. The protagonist of the Nobel Prize winner returns to his hometown, a vulgar and shabby market place. The driver ripped off the author's new book as toilet paper, the author was invited to stand on a fire truck parade, the father and son who are hard to ask for money, the self-proclaimed little fan who invites you to dinner, the hooligan who fights everywhere when the paintings are eliminated, the aggressiveness of the ex-girlfriend's husband, it really makes me Sigh, this naked human nature is unbearably ugly, and there are people who make trouble in the backcountry. It is no wonder that writers never want to go back after they leave their hometowns. With a sharp head, I want to squeeze into the upper class, because the culture there is more enlightened and more tolerant. After going through a pain, looking back again is still the clumsiness of uncovering the scars. However, the writer's quirky laugh at the end is unpredictable, and a speculation about the truth makes me terrified. Is the writer's return to his hometown to experience this toss as he expected, for the preparation of his next novel? ,incredible.

    My hometown can't kill me. When I came out of its body, I had already killed my hometown.

    BJIFF2016.4.8 Meijia Sanlitun. As the title suggests, an absolutely perfect outstanding film! The script is powerful, relying on the dialogue between the male protagonist and many characters to advance the film, but it is not boring at all, because the laughter is dense and metaphorical. The final shooting is instantly reminiscent of the ending of "Hunting", and the ending design of this film is even more unique. It is not clear which is reality and which is fiction. The last smile of the male protagonist is very frightening, and the performance is amazing!
