Just like the male protagonist of "Silence of the Lambs", he is ruthless, ruthless, and smart, but he does extremely immoral things. Such a combination will make people feel a kind of pleasure. While sighing that it is so perverted, they want to laugh and laugh in admiration.
Such a successful character largely shaped the film.
The male protagonist on the edge of birth is eloquent, fluent and clear. Inappropriate words, a comedy movie would be a good laugh, but it's scary in this movie, because it's too direct and cold, and you end up stunned. The male protagonist's behavior and dialogue are completely rational, purposeful and emotionless, even if he has no emotion for sex, only a clear desire and interest relationship. As for the conclusion of friends, "a friend is a gift you give yourself", he coldly stated the definition of a friend in his heart. This definition is of course true, the same principle as "one more friend, one more road", but the emotionless truth is still shocking, and it is too direct to call it out. It's like Ah Q shouting "I want to sleep with you".
The dark humor and irony are also very eye-catching points of the film. The irony of the employment relationship. The boss is very ambitious but extremely exploits the employees, which makes people laugh. Unfortunately, there are many such people in today's society, and it is even more unfortunate that I also met such a boss.
The most irony is that the media industry blindly pursues high ratings, while ignoring moral values, news ethics and even the law. This is a very real problem, and one that can only be laughed at but cannot be solved.
It is said that the director's inspiration came from young people's desire for job hunting, or the American dream, the pursuit of success. And what makes this pursuit black is that the process is ugly and unscrupulous, and the final success has great irony.
As other reviews have said, the script is flawless, from the foreshadowing to the climax, and it is worth studying.
In addition, my focus is on the story of Nightcrawler, starting with the "Nightcrawler" profession and revealing the work content of this profession, because of its privacy, it is enough to attract the audience's curiosity, supplemented by dark and exaggerated characters and stories. , it is not unusual to be a good movie.
