Paterson is the town and the name of the person, and it's a wonderfully ingenious design that perfectly embeds the driver's work in the pulse of the city and integrates the time of day into a standing space.
The whole story only describes the daily life of ordinary people, not to mention the poetic color of the poems in the movie, just rely on the background music to thicken this ideal ordinary.
I really like the driver's poem about dimensions. The three-dimensional world is the bus he drives, and the fourth dimension is the movement of the hands of the watch when traveling through town.
The title of the film is both a personal name and focuses on Paterson's programmed life, but at the same time it shows three different types of people, one is a pure idealist like Laura, the other is a realist like Donny, and There is a category of people like Paterson who struggle between ideals and reality. Laura is happy. There is a person who is willing to give everything for her. Not everyone can get this kind of favor. In life, there are more people who are always tearing up like Donny and Paterson. However, Jiamusu's attitude is obviously to praise these ordinary and ideal people. They are not arrogant and unwilling to be ordinary, they just accept this ordinary calmly, intermittently search for the simple meaning of life, silently Balance the scales of love and reality.
The previous parts of this series performed very well. What lowered the overall level was the dialogue between Paterson and Japanese poetry lovers. It seemed that he wanted to see the truth in the ordinary, but to me, I felt a deliberately "sublimated" artificiality, and there was no front at all. The natural purity of poetry without beautiful words. The only thing that has helped this place back a little is that Paterson is the hometown of the great poet William, and the traces of the town of Paterson remain in the life of the little man Paterson, and the little man Paterson has become a screw in the existence of the town Paterson.
