It's enough to prove that Woody Allen is healing his own mental block by making...

(8/10) The seamless editing + special effects + interaction of real documentary images and characters, as well as the rewriting and reshaping of history, are exactly the same in the later "Forrest Gump". The shell of a biopic shows a chameleon-like character surrounded by the media and the masses, how to receive love and become a real "person". The style is the same Woody Allen as before, and it is full of postmodernist features. Subversion, collage, reorganization, and the blessing and...

I don't know how to rate this movie. As Woody Allen's little-known masterpiece... I think the challenge of this type of anti-documentary is that he is actually using the patient's mouth to express...

A perfect satire, the story itself has great brains, and the way of expressing it in a pseudo-documentary is really wonderful. The chaos and stupidity of the whole society is reflected from a weird person. On the one hand, he can never become his own hero, and on the other hand, there are the masses who only know how to follow the trend. In fact, it is still completely in line with...

Although the film is only 79 minutes long, it explores a lot. Identity, false social circles, entertainment media, the "pseudoscience" of experts in various disciplines, and the manipulative nature of the masses. The director never forgets to sarcastically satirize the psychologist at all times. Among them, golden sentences appear frequently. I really don't know how the old man keeps the output of such high-quality works. "You will definitely become useful and excellent doctors or patients for...

Everyone has a chameleon in their hearts, and being able to change into the skin is a blessing or a curse or a disease, and it is...

Shocked to see Susan Sontag on stage, I really thought it was a...

If you think about it, the "chameleon" itself is a paradox. This chameleon has only changed from an ant, a spider to a human. People with insufficient self-knowledge are wrong to be different from everyone else, and also wrong to be like everyone else. The invincible old man's humor and wisdom dripped down in the form of irony. Ah I love this old...

This has to be one of Woody's best movies. Narrating and laying out in the form of a documentary is really suitable for such a story. Zelig's life is presented in the form of video records, making the whole film like a case treatment document, which is very realistic. It is the perfect unity of form and content. Many details in the film reflect the consistent style of Master Woody, such as Jewish identity, crowd effect, Nazism, psychology, religion, childlikeness, and imagination. Continuing to...

Susan Sontag at the beginning stunned me... The script is great. It's so dark that it's also drunk. Mia Farrow's appearance is exactly like the Swedish woman in Bergman's movie. This is Woody's high production period It's almost a boutique and precious thing is that a niche literary film like Woody dared to use the best hardware technology at that...
