I found this movie on a whim after reading the book "Mensa's Whore". This movie is indeed very similar to the style of various short stories in "Mensah's Whore". When I watch the movie, I feel like reading its novel version. It uses literary and artistic methods to satirize and humor the lives of modern people. I feel that Woody’s humor is just one sentence, that is, cursing people without dirty words, and the intellectual style is very strong.
This film has no trace of the times even now, and the money and entertainment circles of the underworld or the big boss have always been unable to give up. Talented and ambitious artists must also condescend to money and power, just like scientists. Cusack’s image design is obviously Woody himself, and so is the personality of Snippets. The final ending is also a mockery of himself. However, Woody is a real person. And it is estimated that he does "appreciate" those artists who can shut up his mouth, right? In this film, I knew Cusack and the beater with artistic cell. Social experience is sometimes artistic cell, and it also satirizes some flashy things in the stage play. The goddess Scarlett is expected to play the mistress of the underworld, right? It suits her very well.
After watching it, I thought of modern Broadway. Modern Broadway is definitely not the same as it was decades ago. I don’t know if there is a similar contrasting movie.
