      I first saw this introduction on cat food.
      Seeing what the teacher said was so flamboyant, I couldn't help but want to see it.
      In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know that in
      terms of watching animation, it is already so different from the teacher's taste,
      not to mention movies.

      What can I say about this movie. On the one hand, it
      may be because of the disapproval of the protagonist's values; More or less, there is always an experimental...

      What I want to say most: I originally expected you to sell me a funeral, but who would have thought that you would sell me a prostitute.

      The narration of the film is good for pursuing new ideas, but at least it can't make people feel unreasonable. For example, where the male protagonist woke up at the beginning, he didn't explain what was going on before and after.

      A meeting changes a person's life, an advertisement changes the whole world, director, what are you kidding me for. Fassbender said that for things that cannot be changed, people should at least describe (quote from the original book), not go to the...

      Every advertising director may be forced to become angry youth

      Turning on domestic TV, almost all advertisements, especially domestic advertisements, always disgust you to varying degrees, and this trend is still bottoming out. Every advertising director may be forced into an angry youth. I only have the choice not to believe in advertising.

      This must have been shot by an angry director who knows advertising well and hates commercials (or adapted from the memoirs of an angry ad guy). The whole film is full of fantastic pictures of various...

      ubiquitous rape

      Advertising is an inevitable product of the development of modern civilization. It has become pervasive. We have to meet it when we go to the public toilet to urinate. It seizes the opportunity to rape our brains like a habitual criminal; it ravages me for 20 seconds and occupies my brain for 20 seconds. think. The late Madison Avenue King David Oligvy took this criminal art to the extreme.
        People watch hundreds of thousands of advertisements in their lifetime, and almost all of them are...

    Movie quotes

    • Octave Parango: Everything is bought. Love, Art, planet earth, you me. Especially me. The man is a product like any other, with a limit sell by date. I am advertising, I am one of those that make you dream the things you will ever have. Blue skies, never ugly chicks, perfect happiness and retouched in Photoshop. You think I embellished the world? lost, I screw it up. Everything is temporary. Love, Art, planet Earth, you, me. Especially me
