Woody is obviously wise not to star himself, because this time it's all about the character and not the story itself. The protagonist is a self-proclaimed genius and sees through everything. He can not only talk about the truth of his life, but also suppress Haitang once again, and he can always be accompanied by a woman.
If he were to play the role himself, it would be quite boring, not to mention narcissism. Because we are too familiar with it, and we are used to listening to his own nagging, plus the film also has a section of the protagonist muttering to the audience.
what! Fortunately, this time he didn't let the audience watch him "masturbating" on the screen.
Larry David Larry David (Love Curb Your Enthusiasm!) "plays" Woody very well, with a stronger sense of irony in himself, and his performance is quite similar to Woody.
And this time, he's more non-government, louder, meaner, more lonely and insecure than any "Woody", even with his "anything goes" philosophy of life. Of course, the feeling of this character is obviously deliberately weakened by the "perfect" ending, because Woody has always been a moderate, and of course he has to be kind to himself.
