There is enough excavation on human nature, science, civilization, philosophy, religion, etc. in this film. After watching the whole film, after being crushed by the weird, depressing, and tense plot of the second third, I suddenly miss the first third part. When everyone still doesn't know what kind of destiny is waiting for you, With anxiety in their hearts, but because of their "elite" status, they were all arrogant and mean (the more knowledge, the more hypocritical), so a series of witty talks appeared.
1.
Physicist: (Shouting to the security guard who stopped him) Don't you know who I am?
Psychologist: Tell him about your book.
Physicist: I have written a "XXX Quantum XXX Physics XXX", which ranks first in the XXX ranking!
Security guard: Never heard of it.
Psychologist: (with an unbelievable look) You actually thought that he knew your book, and you really didn't make any progress.
2.
Psychologist: Who are you?
Captain: Have you heard of NASA?
Psychologist: NASA! ?
Captain: They don't know me either.
3.
Psychologist: Why did you come to me?
Captain: You wrote a report on how to contact alien creatures.
Psychologist: But that stuff was written for the Bush administration! (How can it be reliable?)
4.
Mathematician: (Questioning the psychologist) Why do you think that this work requires physicists, mathematicians, biologists and psychologists?
Psychologist: These terms sound so smoothly, don't they?
Mathematician: What good is it for you to write such an article?
Psychologist: $35,000. I paid off the house loan.
It is said that some dialogues during the filming were improvised. I don't know whether these lines like cross talk are the result of a talk show. They blend well with the character and identity of each character. Especially Dustin Hoffman, is simply a master of complaints among psychologists.
