    1. Before watching the film, it was revealed that the male protagonist and the old cleaner were the same person. When I watched the film, I guessed that the whole film was actually the old man’s memories and narration of his life before committing suicide. The girlfriend, the parents at different...

    For anyone, there is only oneself in the world

    Talk about "me", the red and yellow girl as tasty as a sausage who wants to leave Jack, and Wordsworth's letter to his ideal girlfriend at the beginning already implies that the heroine is a fictional character.

    Besides, the parents who traveled back and forth, died and laughed wildly, and the house...

    The discussion about the basement at the 30th minute of the film finally made me feel a bit embarrassing and interesting. The whole movie is the reincarnation and hypnosis of consciousness and time. The story happened beyond the specific environment, and the whole seemed weird. It may be the most suitable movie to talk to yourself during the epidemic lockdown. im totally lost but still feel good about it

    Kaufman's new book "I Want to End It All" finally focuses on the word "want". It reminds you that the completed state of "ending" has never left the artistic kingdom constructed by the hero and heroine's imagination, and then came to the real world. The reason why the heroine has been forbearing and shrinking is obviously because of her own psychology of worrying about gains and losses in love and lack of assertiveness in the value judgment of this relationship. The same is true for the male protagonist. After being judged by his parents' value scale, he also realizes that he has never escaped from his parents' control. When the artist makes artistic concessions, the ego becomes indecisive, and there is a high risk of walking into unpredictable horror circles. In fact, this absurd atmosphere has been spreading and spreading. The film has been emphasizing the tension in the relationship between the sexes and the inescapability of the present time and space. If Nolan's Creed renounces temporality because of the functionality of art, then Kaufman uses the futility of art to finally recall the ephemeral but eternal dance of the relationship between the sexes. Assuming this is Kaufman's last work, his predictions of the future are cold, dark and known.

I'm Thinking of Ending Things quotes

  • The Voice: It's not bad, once you stop feeling sorry for yourself because you're just a pig, or, even worse, a pig infested with maggots. Someone has to be a pig infested with maggots, right? It might as well be you. It's the luck of the draw. You play the hand you're dealt. You make lemonade. You... you move on. You don't worry about a thing.

  • Young Woman: Anything an environment makes you feel is about you, not the environment, right?
