three stories

The process of watching is very painful, the cross narrative, the bland plot, the only thing that makes people interested is whether the twin brothers really exist. And in the process have been guessing what the movie is about. Of course I never guessed it. I finally understood after reading the movie reviews that this actually tells three stories.
The first is a real event, where the screenwriter writes a script. This script tells the second story
The second, and the most important, is how the virtual Kaufman Brothers completes this script, which is the main line of the film.
And the third is what the author wrote in Orchid Thief. That's what the book Kaufman sees in the second story.

    The collective explosion of acting skills actually I think Charlie's script is too dark. The Hollywood model in front of me was demoralized and the ending shyly gave a drag car and a gunfight. I guess I was driven crazy.

    A movie that can despair all screenwriters who want to write simple stories. The multi-layered non-linear narrative of the nested structure is a dazzling technique, which fits well with the theme it seems to express. As a screenwriter, it is impossible to write a simple story that is similar to the real life of the self-suffering and suffocating the living. Old Mr. McGee scolded "Why do I waste time?" Even this movie is the climax of the second half. It attracted most of the audience to watch it.

  • Donald Kaufman: Hey, Charles. I pitched my script to mom.

    Charlie Kaufman: Don't say pitch.

  • Donald Kaufman: Okay, well here's the twist. We find out that, that the killer really suffers from multiple personality disorder, right? See, he's actually really the cop and the girl. All of them are him. Isn't that fucked up?
