Actually, this is a funny movie
Why are twins so different in character
Some people are so sad
Some people are so optimistic
But look deeper
In fact, the screenwriter wants you to understand that polarized emotions are not split personalities
a normal response to stress
But you have to learn to complement each other
In reality, the screenwriter of this film does not have twin brothers
The brother he made up is just another personality who hopes to exist
because you need to admit
Sometimes people need positive influence
even like Charles in the movie
I will find my brother who is out of bounds very annoying all day long
Never pretend to be interested in something
because you will regret it
Female reporter Susan (Meryl Streep)
Interviewed a "flower picker" who was full of lawsuits because of his love for orchids and often stealing orchids
And processed this person's story into the biographical novel "Orchid Thief"
She took the opportunity of interviews to understand Lao Xu's life in depth
Envy and respect for his ability to be so devoted to an event
She also pretended to be interested in orchids
But the truth is she was never interested in them
Everything is for the needs of the story and the narrative
When she saw the ghost orchid with great difficulty
Apparently did not have the expected miraculous and purifying effect of the mind
she began to understand
When dreams become reality
most likely to be disappointing
It's not Jiang Lang's end
Just didn't know you from life
A Hollywood studio has bought the rights to the book "The Orchid Thief"
And invited the well-known adaptor Charles (Nicolas Cage)
to turn it into a screenplay
Helpless, Charles seems to be exhausted
He racked his brains and couldn't finish the adaptation of "The Orchid Thief"
He wants to express the beauty of orchids
I don't want to add to the storyline for the sake of dramatic conflict
Most importantly, he didn't want to ruin Susan's work.
He has a kind of
A good feeling that exists without knowing it
you are looking for change
The world is really changing
In desperation, Charles had to ask the original author Susan for help
But the introverted Charles meets the charismatic Susan
I was so nervous that I couldn't speak
He had to call in his younger brother Donald, who was very interested in screenwriting and wanted to get involved.
Donald thinks Susan is lying
The two feel that they should pursue the truth
As a result, things got more and more out of control
The two brothers discovered that Susan and Lao Xu were still in private contact
Even Susan is on drugs
In panic, Susan thought of killing
It was in that reserve that someone close to him died.
They had a heart-wrenching night
Susan says she wants to start over
But life is like a drama
How do you know how another version of the world will play out your life?
get out of the pressure circle
see the beauty of life
Charles on a whim
The creative process of deciding to rewrite the script by myself is also written into the script
After a series of accidents
His screenplay adaptation is also nearing completion
Happily
The world is changing, and Charles is making small changes
He finally called his mother to tell his life's changes
He was finally able to express his affection for the girl he liked
He was finally able to complete a work that satisfied him
He finally learns to reconcile with life
less negative and closed
