I watched "This Man Is From Earth" and "K-Star Stranger", and I also read a lot of movie reviews, and there are many views of the original book, including what the screenwriter and director of the film and novel said in an interview with an open ending or said something that didn't definite statement. My own feeling is that as far as movies are concerned, the male protagonists of these two movies are all modern ordinary human beings like everyone, but one is a murder suspect with a high IQ historian, and the other is a high IQ who likes astronomy. mental illness. I don't know if there are people who think like me

    A strange and healing "science fiction" (?). The director created a sense of suspense so well that it made people speculate at the last moment!

    This is the earliest open ending film I have seen in my memory. The slow pace can lead to a lot of thinking, but the suspenseful setting can firmly grasp the audience's appetite. The two elements of science fiction and psychology become the two basis for the open ending. The final ending Playing family cards is in line with the tone of the entire film and will not cause the audience to feel alienated. The excellent acting skills of the two leading actors do not need to be repeated.

K-PAX quotes

  • Dr. Mark Powell: Uh, how is it that being a visitor from space, that you, uh, you look so much like me or, or anyone else from Earth?

    Prot: Why is a soap bubble round?

    Dr. Mark Powell: "Why is a soap bubble round?"

    Prot: You know, for an educated person, Mark, you repeat things quite a bit. Are you aware of that? A soap bubble is round because it is the most energy-efficient configuration. Similarly, on your planet I look like you. On K-PAX I look like a K-PAXian.

    Dr. Mark Powell: Prot, why did you want to come to our planet?

    Prot: Well, I've been here many times before. But what brought me here first? I don't know. Pure curiosity, I guess. I'd never been to a Class BA-3 planet before.

    Dr. Mark Powell: Class BA-3?

    Prot: Early stage of evolution. Future uncertain.

  • Prot: I will admit the possibility that I am Robert Porter, if you will admit the possibility that I am from K-PAX. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a beam of light to catch.
