    It turned out to be the director of the second feature film who won the Oscar for his short film "Curfoil". The structure is very ambitious. He used three different timelines to piece together a "failure" about successful people. In fact, the interpretation of the author's bottleneck in the middle is a bit old-fashioned. Well, it's really fortunate that it has created a quite three-dimensional male protagonist~ (It is one of the few remaining pearls of the sea in...

    Christensen's return is still a play with new narrative ideas. The three lines disrupted the narrative, and once thought that a certain part was the plot of his book. Every choice in the past, everything that happened to me, whether unintentional or deliberate, will come back in another form in the future. The director manipulates the protagonist to convey very personal emotions, but the actors are too young to help the audience's...

    I can't accept it, little Ellie also has a day to act as a...

    The story setting is good, but the actors and directors are a bit awkward. Ellie, like her sister, should be able to try more adult female roles instead of teenagers in the future. Short hair is obviously better than the long hair...

    A fictional writer's personal history, very Sundance in tone and rhythm. But such an understated way of telling is inconsistent with the number of characters featured in the film and the depth of the content involved. The seemingly dazzling three periods of time in the movie were broken into pieces and reassembled. The suspense of the writer's bleak ending was weakened by the overlapping but always scratching emotional catharsis. In addition, the actor's performance was really...

    Multi-line narrative, emotions have been disrupted all the time, the deliberately set suspense to the setting revealed at the last minute still brings a lot of impact, and then back to the previous, there is a sense of loss, I don't know if it is adapted from the novel. Like the talented novelist in the movie, this film has all the elements of a best-selling novel (movie), and it is clichéd but very well...

    Christensen's movies are still good-looking, and the slow-moving mirror has become a symbol. I hope that one day I can get rid of this stingy literature and art. Emotional expression is his forte, and the story is still very creative, but it's just too full and a little too catchy. Looking forward to taking it to the next level....

    The smashed timeline did not build up complex emotional overlaps as expected, and too much accumulation could not cover up the powerless horse-grabbing. And what kind of misunderstandings the creators have about "Pulitzer-winning...

    A story about the person who recorded the story as he became the story itself. The method of cross-narrative of the three timelines is really bold, and there are also many emotional intersections that individuals think are genius. After seeing a lot of bad reviews on this film, I can't help but suspect that this is a very emotionally personal film. Except for the bloody part in the latter part, the rest of the film can hit my personal emotional point very much, and the part of seclusion...

    40/100 I've never seen a movie that pulls together so many dog-blooded stories that are inextricably linked and rather boring. The soundtrack is beautiful but used indiscriminately, the photography is also a waste, and the editing that disrupts the timeline is to endorse these bloody stories. This is the role that Rogan only got from Hollywood actors in the 20s. Basically, it is some performance work, no challenge and...

The Vanishing of Sidney Hall quotes

  • Sidney Hall: Gloria... she had a virginal quality that contrasted with her ice cool outer shell... yeah, she was a bitch, for sure... Her breasts, her cheekbones, her legs; she saw that in the mirror every morning and was well aware of the power they held over men. No one could touch her or intimidate her. I once saw Brad Dorsey, the captain of the soccer team, crying by his locker. She had dumped him after one date and took his balls with her. From that day forward he never played sports again.

  • Sidney Hall: Once Melody left me, it dawned on me, looking out at all of those wonderful city lights, that I was just one of those millions of city lights, a tiny little pixel, buried within the white noise of life, blinking on for just a brief second in time.
