Freud's three "Is," "id," "ego," and "superego," where "ego" is the de-moralized "superego," avoiding pain and pursuing satisfaction under the reality principle, male protagonist Able has long been on the verge of losing control of the superego, and an accidental overhearing makes him maximize the meaning of self-realization: he decides to execute an unscrupulous judge privately.
There are three points of view in this film:
1. Under the framework of existentialism, the behavior and emotions of the characters are no longer meaningful, and everyone will strive to realize their own value.
2. Regarding the point of view of self-realization, although society is built by people, I personally do not criticize the behavior of a few people to break through socialization for self-realization.
3. The minorities living among the mediocre people have huge dissatisfaction in their hearts and need to be released, but in the end they often lose to fate and good fortune.
Woody Allen is good at using life sketches to softly attack people's often overlooked but familiar nature. He can always write stories about things that are often inadvertently thought of, which is what people often say: nonsense in earnest. And I like this kind of story the most.
I also like philosophy, because a lot of philosophy is a kind of verbal
masturbation~
