People who see their own lives in movies, see you, and see many other people in their lives. We are all so lonely, we need to find the meaning of existence in the vast crowd.

Maybe you are just a paper man
Wen, Su Jianya
This is a movie about friendship and loneliness.
One is a cowardly and half-dead writer who failed in a marriage.
One is a young girl who witnessed her sister drowning.
Two people who seem to be far apart have many similarities.
For example, Richard... -

Pay attention to mental health
The paper man should be referring to the fragility and loneliness. The movie is about the friendship between a pair of lonely year-end friends, and the unsocial traits (the mature and immature ones should not be mature precociously). This makes them so special among their peers. The ending is good....

Richard Dunn: It's time for you to go.
Captain Excellent: No.
Richard Dunn: You know what I'm saying, Captain. I mean go and never come back.
Captain Excellent: I'm not ready.
Richard Dunn: It doesn't matter! You can't help me anymore. The doctor's right.
Captain Excellent: But... Then you'll be all alone.
Richard Dunn: Yes. The last of my kind.
[There is a silence between them]
Richard Dunn: Okay. Do the voice... one last time. Please...
Captain Excellent: [intense] When the world is imperiled... When evil surrounds you... When danger is lurking... Who do you call?

[Abby is reading Richard's last letter]
Richard Dunn: Richard regarded his solitude as something sacred as a well earned badge of honor, a cloak to be worn to ward off life. As his safety. Solitude is who he was. This caused those in his life to view him with a barely veiled contempt. Richard was certain that he was not liked, which is hard on a man. *Maybe* it was because he gave nothing that he received nothing in return. In any case, his situation had become intolerable. The closest things he had to friends were either imaginary or extinct. And Richard had reached a point in his life where this was no longer enough. And then he met a girl... And she was warm. And she was sad. And she was maybe lonely in a way that reminded him of himself. She'd lost things that a girl should never have lost. And she knew things. And she taught him. And Richard thought: "Maybe this is what friendship feels like. Maybe." It was just a glimpse, they'd barely begun, really. But in those long, few winter days, she'd given him so much. Enough so that Richard could go on. And what had he given her? Just a few words on a page. Not much, perhaps. But for Abby, he hoped it was enough.
