      Not all of us are creators, but we were all paranoid

      American movies have always been my favorite, and I can feel the tolerance and "freedom" of American culture when I watch them. Before watching this movie, I got the label of being a little fresh from others. I watched it as a pastime after lunch, why did it feel a little heavy.
          The male protagonist created a perfect lover, he thought she was perfect, even her short legs, he couldn't love her, but his desire to control became very strong after the relationship deepened. He wanted to...

      This movie deserves a Nobel Prize

      Because she uses magic realism very well. Just kidding, I believe Mo Yan can do anything other than magic realism, haha.

      It has long been said that the most perfect women are only written by novelists, so the most beautiful stars should go to the writer's bed, because only through this way can they become perfect. But it seems that the beauties are not so smart, so they only go to the director's bed, and the director wants to go to the writer's bed. I don't know if Lao Mouzi has ever...

      The best starting point for self-dissection

      Just guessing from the title, all that can be told is the resurrection of the characters written by the writer. The writer experienced an unforgettable feeling. As for the ending, the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom, depending on how the director arranges it. But the outline of the story is known, but the details are unknown. The director did not expect to fully display the darkness and darkness of the hero's innermost heart.

      Interweaving of fantasy and reality

      Indeed, this is a very magical film, and the author did not try to explain this phenomenon in any way, but it is very memorable. In the process of viewing, it is difficult not to be attracted by the beautiful expressions: soft sunshine, comfortable swimming pool, blue coastline, and happy attitude to life. But behind it, something incredible and wonderful naturally manifested itself.
        The movie attracts attention from the very beginning. From the first encounter in the dream, the...

      Is it written for boys like me?

      A boy like Kevin, if I fall in love, how will it end?
              Falling in love with a character in a book created by yourself, and being able to change everything about your sweetheart at will, is probably what many people dream of. The lingering in love, the feeling of wanting to be together all the time, crazy, going to the dance hall to dance frantically, to take a few proud group photos, no matter what, as long as the lover is around, everything is so perfect and sweet....

    Movie plot

    Kevin ( played by Paul Franklin Dano ) is a genius novelist. He once made his debut as a famous national writer, but when it came to his second work, he encountered a bottleneck. At the same time, his life seemed unsatisfactory. Since his first love girlfriend left him, Kevin has been alone, and even called himself "the type not suitable for dating". So, Kevin began to make up his ideal Ruby ( Zoe Kazan ) in his dream, and recorded...

    "Ruby Sparks" is a small and fresh style love film, gloom is not destined to be the theme. When the clouds are gone, the farce will subside. It can be described as a modern film interpretation of the Pygmalion myth. (Chinese Court Online Review) 
    "Ruby Sparks" is a high-concept independent small fresh romantic comedy worth watching. The story has a very strange and fantastic conception. The whole movie is very interesting. But its...

    Movie quotes

    • Harry: I love Susie, but she's a weirdo. Sometimes, she's mean as fuck for no reason.

    • Calvin Weir-Fields: This is the true and impossible story of my very great love. In the hope that she will not read this and reproach me, I have withheld many telling details: her name, the particulars of her birth and upbringing, and any identifying scars or birth marks. All the same, I cannot help but write this for her, to tell her "I'm sorry for every word I wrote to change you, I'm sorry for so many things. I couldn't see you when you were here and, now that you're gone, I see you everywhere." One may read this and think it's magic, but falling in love is an act of magic, so is writing. It was once said of Catcher In The Rye, "That rare miracle of fiction has again come to pass: a human being has been created out of ink, paper and the imagination." I am no J.D. Salinger, but I have witnessed a rare miracle. Any writer can attest: in the luckiest, happiest state, the words are not coming from you, but through you. She came to me wholly herself, I was just lucky enough to be there to catch her.

    • Ruby Sparks: What's your dog's name?

      Calvin Weir-Fields: Uh, Scotty. I named him for F. Scott Fitzgerald.

      Ruby Sparks: Isn't that disrespectful?

      Calvin Weir-Fields: What?

      Ruby Sparks: Naming your dog after him? It's a little disrespectful. Think about it. You're a novelist. You think this guy's the greatest. So you name your dog after him to cut him down to size. This way, you can put him on a leash... and yell "Bad Scotty" and feel all superior because you pee inside. Kill your idols, man. I'm all for it.
