Synecdoche, New York 2008
Charlie Kaufman
The front shot is good enough, and the back is getting better and better. To be able to make this structure like this, to be able to write this kind of script, intricate and methodical, is nice, awesome. The filming of the plot sound is almost perfect. A man who cries before sex is accompanied by his loneliness for life and cannot leave. Who is not so lonely, but there were so few people who made you feel that you got all the glory of tacit understanding and love at that moment. In the end, the "substitute" of the male protagonist becomes a "woman" who he thinks will live better as a woman, completely deviates from everything he has always thought, but provides him with a brand new understanding of the whole life. perspective, even hope. What is more curious is that there is a definition that men need to deal with their first divorce experience in order to make their future life "normal". The female avatar has transformed him into a slogan that is a bit chicken soup, but it is communicative, interactive, and warm, which makes the whole film and the whole life of the protagonist turn from an atmosphere of despair. And the male protagonist became "Ellen", which was also an identity he once had. In the end, his identity was taken away by women, and the homosexual person emphasized by his daughter before her death also became a heterosexual lover. No matter how many identities you change, the one thing that will never change is loneliness.
At the end, I completely forgot what I saw before. Is the protagonist Ellen or Caten? Can't tell the difference anymore. Substitution and ontology, do they really have a subject? Is it in this movie? Your whole life?
The withered roses on her daughter's body, the fallen black petals, and the black blood vessels outside her body were so beautiful that she seemed to understand death at that moment.
The closing sentence Die. Well, it's very simple, I'm gone too.
