Passing work (spoiler on the timeline)

1. A car accident. The little devil drove, and his brother was in the co-pilot and crashed into the family of scientists who had driven in laterally. The little devil moved his brother from the passenger seat to the driving seat, falsified the scene of the accident, and then went to ask for help. The scientist's daughter died, and the little demon's brother died. 2. Encounter. The guilty little devil met the scientist, the two chatted a lot and became friends. 3. Death. The little devil wanted to confess the car accident to the scientist, but the scientist died after the product launch. The little devil began to investigate the truth on his own. 4. Investigation. Memory has become the most direct and powerful testimony. The two suspects are not murderers. It is the brain death caused by a system error when the scientist deletes his own memory (the machine is not perfect enough to delete the memory safely). 5. The truth. The little devil extracted his own memory and wanted to confess to the scientist's widow, but they didn't care at all. The little devil returned to the place where the car accident happened and found that the scientist did not follow the signs and caused the death of two people. Passed because it told a complete story, and there was suspense that attracted the audience to read it. With a limited budget, it achieved a visual texture with a smarter technique. Passing is because the plot is too flat, there are no twists and turns, and there is no way to give higher scores. At first, the little devil was both good and evil (surveilling his own investigation rather than relying on the police), but turned out to be a good person who made a little mistake and didn't want his father to blame himself for his brother's death. Originally, I thought the scientist’s boss was behind the scenes (this would explain that the little devil’s motive for investigating himself was worried that the boss would hide evidence), but in the next big chess game, it didn’t happen. There seems to be a play on the line of Xiaosan, but it turns out to be an independent episode. At the beginning of the film, several lines were produced, which gave people a lot of expectations, but they were not organized into a network. Each line was very independent and simple (the screenwriter’s ability to control), and the whole film stopped at the passing line.

Rememory quotes

  • Gordon Dunn: [speaking to audience] Memory is the ultimate definer of our lives. For what are our lives, but a collection of memories... memories of events, experiences, emotions... all stamped onto our nervous systems, all leading to here and now, making us each the person we are today. Without them, the present would be void of context.

  • Gordon Dunn: [speaking to audience] We tend to think of memories as these filed-away facts stored safely in the brain, when in actuality, everything that's happened to you since the event you remember has altered the memory of that event, providing a new filter through which you experience it, a filter that changes, and forgets, and exaggerates, and combines, and morphs. But the pure experience does still exist within you, for your brain has the ability to remember every event that's ever happened to you, down to the greatest of detail. The problem is you have no way of recalling it, no way to clear the filters of time and get back to the truth. Until now.
