      Lens language is so cool. Uncle Clooney, you didn't find the shooter to shoot, did you?

      I watched less than a third of this film a few years ago, and I was attracted by the title, but I didn't see it. Yesterday, when I stood in front of the bookshelf and flipped through the books, the word "dangerous thoughts" suddenly popped into my mind. I remembered such a film and rekindled my interest in watching it. In the evening, I opened the good film on the projection, and this time I really saw it. As the directorial debut of star actor George Clooney, I have to say...

      Confessions of Dangerous Thoughts

      A man with a career bottleneck was suddenly caught by the CIA and became a CIA agent! This may be a small probability event that many ordinary people have dreamed of happening. Of course, including me, ah~~ Traveling around the world, working and killing people by the way, is very challenging. But this is not what the movie wants to convey to us. When the protagonist finally succeeds in his career, his dual identity begins to become a huge problem. We began to think, when life is about to come...

      Confessions of a Dangerous Mind

      Chuck Barris (played by Sam Rockwell), who is determined to be famous and rich, meets his future wife Penny (played by Drew Barrymore) naked by accident. This is absolutely a coincidence, because he just slept with Penny's roommate and went naked to their kitchen to find something.

        But these are not the only things that are more coincidental. Barris later took the opportunity to not only become the host of several crazy variety show competitions on the TV station, but also was...

      Star lineup, the plot is more alternative

      Directed by George Clooney, a movie with many stars together.
      The jumps in the various parts of the plot are a bit nonsensical. It must be said that a young man likes to do it since he was a child. By coincidence, he made a TV show and became a CIA agent to assassinate others. Then he met his own woman and saw that he was at home. Mess around.
      Then the incident happened, under great psychological pressure, and finally almost collapsed, but still survived and eventually grew old....

      Based on the autobiographical novel of a sturdy madman, a movie with a strong sense of the times and a convulsive star who even lifts the murder scene lightly. I don't know how to evaluate...

      Naked, beard and lax, closed door and self-blame, is this the rhythm of prosperity and enlightenment? However, when you were young, you were famous, rich, and beautiful. When you were bored, you could kill people, but it was not in vain. At least when you were on shows like "The Game of the Old Man", you didn't have to shoot yourself in the head with shame....

      Only Charlie Kaufman could write such a boring movie so experimental and commercial! A true master, the Einstein of the film industry, the artist of thinking! !...

    Creative background

    In the late 1980s, the Columbia company bought the film rights to the novel "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind". The company appointed Jim McBride as the director, but the latter’s chosen lead actor Richard Dreyfuss refused to look at the script, and the filming plan was then decided. Then stranded. In 1997, producer Andrew Lazar bought the copyright from Columbia, and Warner Bros. Pictures began to prepare for the production. In the...

    Evaluation action

    The film is still very impressive as George Clooney's directorial debut. Critics believe that in the film, the screenwriter Charlie Kaufman changed the original work out of depth and gave a reasonable and reasonable explanation for the seemingly absurd plot. The success of the film will inevitably be due to him. Although the film used a large number of star lineups, the European and American critics still appreciated the handling of...
