The film narrative uses two intersecting and evolving parallel clues, one is the process of Joel undergoing amnestics, which is carried out in sequence; the other clue is composed of elements such as memory, consciousness, and subconsciousness, and is used to tell the audience about Joel and Clement. The story of the encounter, breakup, and re-encounter between Tings uses flashbacks. Joel waking up from his dream in the early morning is not only the beginning of the movie's story, but also the intersection of two narrative clues. This ingenious response makes the audience suddenly realize that reality (procedure) and memory (Joel's about Clay Menting's memories) and subconscious activities in dreams (Joel struggled to escape the removal of good memories from surgery).
At the beginning of the story, Joel, who woke up from a deep sleep, followed the guidance of his dreams and boarded the train to Montaque. On the freezing beach, Joel and Clementine met again by accident, and then they were on the train. The acquaintance, and then the Party at Lake Charles at night, the two lovers who had undergone amnestics respectively, with vague feelings and memories, once again found the familiar love and touch. According to common sense, the storyline that was supposed to go on came to an abrupt end here, throwing a pile of suspense, and starting a new story about Joel, who was tortured by a broken love, and drove home alone at night with a trance. , Waiting for the technicians of the blank company to perform amnestics on themselves.
According to Dr. Howard, in every segment of human memory, there will be a core of emotion. If this core is cleared, the corresponding memory will disappear slowly. This is the principle of amnestic surgery. The operation starts with the most recent memory, because the most recent emotional conflict is the strongest, and the strong emotional core makes the machine sensitive. The machine then follows the neural links emanating from this emotional core to find all other memories associated with this strong emotional conflict. unit. Such a process from one to another is the basis and sequence of the operation on Joel by Patrick and Stan of Blank Company. It is also the process of Joel’s memory playback. On the other hand, it is a show to the audience that the relationship between two lovers The process of how the emotions in the room turn from thick to light.
During the operation, the conversation between Stan and Patrick interfered with and affected Joel's consciousness and behavior in his sleep. The processing was quite wonderful, that is, it was authentic and witty. The operation continued, and Joel, who was reawakened by more and more beautiful memories, suddenly realized that once he cleared his memory of Clementine, he would lose the person he loves most in this life, so he struggled to get rid of the instrument. At this time, it was Patrick who went off duty to go to Clementine for an appointment, Stan was fooling around with Mary, a female employee of the blank company, and Joel succeeded in getting rid of the automatic program-controlled instrument chase. The setting of this small climax has laid a good foundation for the appearance of the next small climax, Dr. Howard, and the smooth completion of the removal operation. Driven by his subconscious mind, Joel took Clementine to hide, but he still failed to escape the fierce pursuit of Dr. Howard. Seeing the small house symbolizing memory collapse little by little, Joel, helpless, desperately and Clementine. Ting said goodbye, and the two agreed: after waking up, see you on the beach at Montauk! The narrative of the movie is here, smoothly explaining the inner connection between the two clues, and slowly merge from here, the next plot is that Joel and Clementine, both of whom had undergone amnestics, meet again The story that happened later.
In addition to the two intertwined narrative threads, the emotional entanglement between Patrick and Clementine, Stan, Mary and Dr. Howard is not only to derive the development of the plot, but also to provide circumstantial evidence for the film's narrative theme. Patrick accidentally fell in love with Clementine, a patient undergoing surgery, so he took advantage of his career to borrow Clementine’s vague memory of Joel, misappropriated Joel’s identity and fell in love with Clementine, accidentally hit and collided, Patrick These behaviors just awakened Clementine's fond memories of Joel. The emotional entanglement between Mary and Dr. Howard proves that the mechanical removal of the instrument cannot completely eradicate all the memories of the people once loved. It seems helpless, but it gives the audience a touch of warmth. After all, we don’t want to. Seeing technological advancement deprive humanity of the warmth.
If Joel and Clementine meet again and rebuild the old one smoothly, this movie will be dull and tasteless. Knowing the truth, Mary sent back the customer files of the blank company to Clementine and Joel. This action brought a sharp turnaround and once again contradicted the audience’s expectations. This time, the audience’s emotional energy was accumulated from low to high. The process smoothly pushed the film to its climax and ending. Seeing this, I have to admire the screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, who not only knows human nature and human psychology, but also impresses people with his amazing ideas and meticulous plot arrangement. When I first saw the movie, I didn't know where I was; when I watched it again, Fang felt a mysterious and mysterious; after savoring it carefully, I couldn't help but wonder at the case. Such a clever screenwriter wizard, I wonder how many years China will have to wait for one!
"Painless Love Lost", the title of this film is translated intriguingly. When you fall in love, everyone is looking forward to it forever! However, we have no way of knowing how long the sky is and how long is the earth? Following Joel's memory, the emotional transition between the two lovers gradually became clear. Living together, the differences between two individual families and cultural backgrounds will inevitably lead to differences in behaviors and ways of doing things, which brings a little friction and unhappiness to two people who love each other, such as Joel’s hair and gram Lemontine's vulgar behavior in public and so on. After all, these are just the differences in the details of life, which are within the tolerable range. The difference in emotional expression caused by the differences in personalities between two people deepens the gap between the two. Clementine, who is directly impulsive, is full of joy and anger. From the colorful colors of her hair, we can immediately understand her current state of mind. Joel, who is shy and introverted, often uses silence to conceal his dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction, which will inevitably lead to Clementine's complaints. Clementine vented her unhappiness in her own way. This chaotic girl who was looking for her inner peace angered Joel with alcoholism and returning late at night, hoping to see his fierce reaction and see him hiding in her heart. My own feelings. The irritation worked, but unfortunately, Joel in a rage severely stabbed her self-esteem with harsh words, causing the impulsive Clementine to use clear memories to forget the hurt his lover brought to her.
If human emotions are really like handwriting on paper, they can be smeared and wiped at will, the world is much simpler. It's a pity that no matter how you wipe it, the touch of your heart in your life is like sand falling into the shell of a mussel, and it will condense into pearls over time. No matter it is crystal clear, no matter it is rough, it will always remain in my heart. When anger, jealousy, and dissatisfaction are cleared by the instrument, and the warmth, sweetness, and emotion scattered in the depths of memory surging, I am afraid that there can only be love except love. This love is the eternal sunshine of the beautiful soul, warming you and illuminating me, but our eyes are often blinded by the turbulence and monotony of the day, and often only remember the unpleasant entanglement, often the simple happiness Leave behind with happiness.
"Change your state of mind, look around you; change your state of mind, it will still surprise you, just like I need sunshine, I need your love, everyone will understand then..." The movie is over, the singing is still Continue. After experiencing the cycle of meeting, falling in love, breaking up, meeting again, falling in love, and breaking up again; after suddenly discovering that the partner who fell in love is the most familiar stranger in the world, can we be the same as the protagonist in the movie? Let go, can't find a reason not to love you? The cycle of encounter, love, boredom, and encounter again, there is a trace of fate in it. When we truly see each other and truly understand that we are not perfect, but he is the best one for you, will we be sincere I sigh because we are in love...that's enough...
The filming method of film images borrowed many expressions of MTV, especially the exposition of phantoms (memory and subconscious activities), as well as a large number of film and television special effects, which are also true and illusion. What impressed me the most was the section where Stan and Patrick performed the operation on Joel. The dialogue between Stan and Patrick was used as a voiceover, blended into the memories of Joel during the operation, interfered with each other, influenced and controlled Joel's subconscious flow, and it was wonderful. Another segment of Joel and Clementine’s farewell at the beach hut, when Dr. Howard turned off the computer and ended the operation, the flow of images was processed quite well, and all sorts of vague memories flashed across Joel’s brain very quickly. Close to the scene and atmosphere of the time. The image of the whole movie, no matter the composition or color, is very much like watching a full-length MTV, probably because the film director is good at making MTV.
"Painless Broken Hearts" is not very classic, not very deep, but very special. The special structure and the special image are unforgettable. For a movie, it is enough to have characteristics that are remembered.
