Obviously talking about "death"

but not sad at all

/

(2006)

It's a movie about fantasy and reality

The way the author writes

Use real-time plot to influence the lives of characters

But it doesn't emphasize love like "People in Love Letters"

It is not as simple and direct as

Live as the protagonist of the book

He - Harold Crick (Will Ferrell) is an IRS auditor

Live a very regular monotonous life every day

But gradually realized that he became the protagonist of Karen Eiffel

Her voice always ringing in my ears

Can see into his daily routine and even predict his death in the near future

She can control her own life and death!

What he doesn't understand is

This narrator's voice is dominating his life

Still talking about his life

What will happen if he does nothing?

tell him the truth

even do nothing

His house will still be torn down and he has to get out of the house

so

He tries to get along with his work buddies

try to manage your own love

Be the active side in the relationship between writer and fictional character

In short even without making any changes

Life also forces you to get out of the house and act

So better

Take the typewriter of your life into your own hands

I only write tragedy in my life

She - Karen Eiffel (Emma Thompson) is a writer

pessimistic character

Never let the protagonist escape the fate of death

At the moment she is worrying about how to arrange for the hero to die great

She encountered a writing bottleneck

Almost wanted to be inspired by experiencing death

She didn't know that the male protagonist in the pen completely overlapped with him in real life

And the plot of the hero's death will be fulfilled on him one by one

after learning the truth

She also fell into critical thinking

If this person is not illusory

So how many good people have she let die for no reason?

She has always been good at writing tragedies and has always been writing tragedies

to die meaningfully

Harold is dominated by this "imminent death" and "must die" panic

Want to take the initiative to fight for a chance to live

But after reading the entire novel in one go

He chose to accept

No panic and resistance, no more panic

Yes people will always die

Accept the generally "poetic and meaningful" death set in the novel

It's also better than being exhausted after years of overwork in the office.

or a sudden accident

or diseases of old age

Because Harold, who doesn't have much literary appreciation, also understands

This is indeed an excellent work

even if it marks its own death

The next morning when the watch beeps as usual

Harold has made up his mind to meet his own destiny

Complete your final mission in the book

Pick up the little boy who is about to be hit by a car

But if death can express an emotion and a purpose

Is it possible to live ?

Professor says only Harold dies at the end of the novel

To make Karen Eiffel's novel a masterpiece

When Karen Eiffel showed him the new ending

He says it's not bad but not the best

Karen Eiffel revised the script not to print "dead"

Did not write the hero of this movie to death

Not just because she knew Harold wasn't a fake

Not just because of the guilt about the characters you've created before

It's because she realizes so many tragedies in life.

And people go through these tragedies

Just to be able to start their comedy life later

Otherwise empty and flat tragedy

nothing to praise
