The world is absurd, who survives under the pen? (Zhou Zhimeng is Hu Die and?)

A movie-like opening remark, deep as the sound of the sea in the night, and the characters move with it. If you don't feel it, who will suspect the absurdity of the harmony between the screen and the narration, or are we used to it?

Just after the last moment of watching the movie, I came to write a movie review between my heels. Undoubtedly, this movie must be the writer who arranged for the "author" in the film to kill the protagonist (from our perspective of being outside the film). However, with the "author" in the film as the protagonist, as it is, why is this not a kind of self-help in his writing?

More than once in the film, the "author"'s intentions appear, and most of them are suicidal fantasies. And the story is created through the writer's mind, such as Wang Zi'an drinking ink and then writing it. From this point of view, the story of this film may be all the imagination of the "author".

If you agree with the author's point of view, and speculate accordingly. However, this film can be said to be the overlap of the "author"'s fantasy when he conceived the novel and the author's mental breakdown on the verge of collapse. This is a writer who solves his own spiritual crisis with the fantasy of the characters in the novel when he is studying and pondering the characters of the novel.

Writers are soulless ones. If a proverb is not written in blood, it is not worth reciting. Therefore, William Nietzsche said: "All literature, I love those who write in blood". The text is like a person, so the writing obstacle "author" in the film is hesitating on the cliff of his own tragedy! Under the urging of the publishing house, and at the time of the tragedy of life, an image of surviving from death should be conceived. The loneliness of this character is like her loneliness, the hesitation of this character is just like her hesitation, what this character eagerly desires is her eager desire!

Therefore, she consoles herself with the hero of the spiritual world, why? To speak for himself, to write for his submerged self in his absurd world - to survive. Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies? Butterfly Dream Zhuang Zhou? Can you be questioned?
