A movie has experienced the ups and downs of life.
That’s right, Yi Jie is talking about the movie "Who Killed Don Quixote". After 27 years, it has been turned on twice and reorganized five times. During this period, countless people have been hit by disasters and illnesses. Netizens jokingly called the "cursed movie."
We all know that Don Quixote is a knight described by Cervantes. He not only has a deep sense of responsibility and honor, but he is also a loyal man who is almost crazy.
He attacked the mill windmill, thinking it was a giant, it challenged the flock, thinking that they were the enemy's army, he saw the wine sac and said it was a ghost.
He is famous, but he lives his life madly.
He always rides a thin horse, holds a spear in hand, and is draped in a pair of incomplete armor. He leads a vulgarly-dressed pudgy attendant, and goes everywhere.
His whole life was like a joke.
And "Who Killed Don Quixote"? Obviously, it is different from the satirical novel Don Quixote, but it is essentially connected.
The protagonist of the film, Toby, is an advertising director who shoots an advertisement about Don Quixote in Spain.
In fact, shooting this advertisement is not difficult for Toby. After all, Toby, who was a student, shot a Don Quixote-themed advertisement in Spain, and the response was enthusiastic and he became famous.
However, returning under the aura will often go through decadence.
Soon, Toby's crew experienced a series of shooting accidents, for example, the props were broken, for example, the personnel had problems.
This series of accidents made Toby upset, so he decided to temporarily stop filming and revisit the actors who participated in his commercial filming.
But as you know, people who become famous too early are often easy to "become everyone" . Just like Fang Zhongyong in Wang Anshi's works, he can write poetry at the age of five, but he will eventually become a mediocre middle-aged person.
There is no doubt that the cast and crew under Toby is the same.
Some people died of alcoholism.
Some people have dreams of celebrities, but they have few ways to reach the dream. In the end, they can only be reduced to the point where Israel serves people and be "captive" by local tyrants.
Others are too deep into the drama and live their lives crazy and exaggerated.
It seems that everyone has not been able to reach the pinnacle of their lives with this famous advertisement.
What's more dramatic is that even Toby, this seemingly normal commercial director, revisited because of the old days, starting his crazy and ridiculous life.
A Russian local tyrant, that is, the local tyrant who supported the heroine of Toby's advertisement, held a large-scale gathering, and all the participants came to participate in classical and gorgeous clothes.
But after a lot of trouble under this costume, Toby was hit by a mental disorder, fantasizing that he would become Don Quixote, and with his heroine, he embarked on a new inexplicable and fantastic journey. .
Isn't it peculiar?
After watching, Yijie looked frustrated, maybe as the director Gilliam said, some things just make people crazy.
Don Quixote gains his life value in the confrontation with the real world. Toby found his new journey in life after colliding with the past. Gilliam has repeatedly failed to restart the "Don Quixote" project to discover life The true meaning of it. But no matter how others laugh at, their essence is to insist on being themselves.
So, who actually killed Don Quixote? Who on earth is the madman?
The absurd, vague, extreme, and exaggerated plot is just to use a kind of extreme to explain to us that the truth is indistinguishable, good and evil are indistinguishable.
The world laughed at me too crazy, I laughed at it, people can't see through.
Leaving alone in the climax of the big carnival, dying lonely in the compliments and flattery of the world, watching these things that are related to me but not related to me coldly, the world suddenly stands still.
One sister thought, what Don Quixote wanted to satirize was the futility of this world, and what director Gilliam wanted to express was the persistence of this world.
I don't want to be an enemy of the world, but no one wants to be with me yet, that's it!
