The same is true in life.

The whole movie gave me the feeling that it is gorgeous and colorful, just like the protagonist is afraid of sticking to the rules and unwilling to be mediocre.

1.

There are two places where the sound processing left a deep impression on me, one is recruiting actors at the beginning, and the other is gathering everyone to talk about the lines.

It's showtime, folks. Then the scene changed, and the intense and tense actor selection began. A song by George Benson on broadway, the dialogue is hidden in the actors' limbs and eyes, and the portrayal is very detailed and vivid, and the language is superfluous here. , a very interesting thing.

When talking about the lines, the actual sound should be everyone laughing loudly, and the script is full of passion. Everyone is laughing wildly, but in the ears of the protagonist, the sounds of those details are amplified and the background is muted, although it may be Because of the feeling of his heart attack, but when I watch it, all it gives me is a feeling of anxiety, maybe the two complement each other. The handling of this place is also great and authentic.

2.

The protagonist has been editing the movie "Talk Show", and the scene sounds in it keep appearing repeatedly. This feeling of constantly appearing and flashing back is also a very real life experience.

"Angry, denial, negotiating, frustrated, accepting."

In the end the movie becomes reality, or it is a portrayal of reality in the first place.

3.

The stage play carefully designed by the protagonist is really amazing.

After everyone finished according to his ideas, they all looked back at him, but he fled in a panic and said that he was not inspired by everyone looking at him like this. This part is also quite touching. That kind of constant demand pushes him to burn himself, maybe he himself likes the feeling of colliding with art. Artistic inspiration really only favors a few people. No matter how well some actors dance, they just want to buy a new apartment.

There are several places where the protagonist and his daughter are together, such as practicing dancing with his daughter in the dance room, and at home with his daughter and his current girlfriend to celebrate his new film preview. The protagonist at this time gives people a feeling of returning to ordinary life. , there is more peace and warmth, just like when he talks inside.

During the hospitalization, he still lived his life wantonly. After all the noise, he and the cleaners sang in the cafeteria, which made me think that was simple happiness. The inner struggle before dying is also a song and dance, the characters appear one by one, and finally they say goodbye. His ex-wife, daughter, and current girlfriend have all persuaded him not to continue like this, but there may be no way. When he inspires his extraordinary art, he will take away some of his other abilities. He said that he wants to do it all over again. It might still be the case.

4.

Although the protagonist has no shortage of companions, he is lonely, and he himself does not know whether his thoughts are true or not. His perseverance, pursuit, and unwillingness to be mediocre in art doomed his daily life to chaos. He is selfish, which doesn't mean he doesn't love them, but he only has so much to burn, constantly consuming it and finally everything ends.

I remember seeing a sentence before, this kind of burning life itself may be an art.
