Although I knew the general content from the beginning, but after reading it, I still feel that the idea is quite good. I wrote a story before, which is probably about: a woman does not know that she is not a person, but just a character in the master's painting.

It was a little bit similar to the setting of today's movie (because I focused on other aspects), at the time I thought the story was beautiful, but a little empty. I saw this movie today, and I think "imagining the other person as you like without permission" seems like a pretty good idea. Because almost everyone has made this mistake.

As for the movie itself:

The overall context of the story is good, but I feel that the rhythm can be improved a little more: the foreshadowing is too long (about the appearance of the female, and the details of the happy relationship between the male and female protagonists), the climax is too short (the male and female protagonists showdown, the explosion is big Contradiction), and the turning point is too abrupt (the male protagonist decides to let go of the female protagonist, and after the book is published, he meets the female protagonist again).
