Both in the past, present or future, the audience will be on "Celebrity attitudes," the actor Kenneth Branagh scoff (Kenneth Branagh) performances in this movie. In the past, the male protagonists in Woody movies occasionally have a shadow of Woody himself, but in this movie, Kenneth completely copied and pasted Woody's personal label-style performance: long-winded stammering dialogue, melancholy pessimism , and even the dressing style copied this Woody. Kenneth is simply a younger version of Woody. This also aroused the consistent verbal criticism from the media and the audience at the time. The critic asked Teague to ask Woody: "Who came up with the idea of having Kenneth Branagh imitate the way you act and how you speak? His idea or yours?" Woody: "More Based on his own interpretation of the character. We talked about it a few times and I said to him: 'You obviously risk being told to imitate me.' But that didn't stop him because that's what he was. Looking at the character, it's how he interprets it. No problem, I wouldn't argue with an experienced actor like him because that's what he thinks is the most natural way to act, so it doesn't matter to me at all. As long as the character is Convincing, I don't care. I know some people who didn't like the movie couldn't find a reason and blamed the actors, believing that I should play the lead instead of having Kenneth imitating me. But I Always thought Kenneth was better than me."
Like most of Woody's films, the lead actor Kenneth's reporter Lee kept cheating, Woody was always discussing marriage and cheating, and the male lead was always sleeping with his wife's best best friend, which made it almost impossible. A meme from a Woody movie. And Li himself is indeed a pessimist: he lamented at the classmates' reunion that time has passed, and youth is gone; in the process of chasing true love and sexual impulses, he will never be satisfied, and will be lost forever. The film also reveals Woody's classic pessimism. The opening and ending echoes. Above the city, the plane draws a huge English word "HELP". In Woody's film, no one can save the protagonist's misfortune, death, existence Doctrine and nihilism are the only truths of Woody's films. And Robin Simon, the wife of the actor Kenneth, said another nihilistic meme of Woody: everything is luck. Simon met her new boyfriend, and in just one year, she transformed from a dull tutor to a hot TV host. She was very happy and said to Li: "When it comes to love, the key is luck."
At the end of the film, Li stared numbly at the huge "HELP" on the screen in the cinema, as if he was calling for help. Seeing his ex-wife indulge in the happiness of warmth, safety, and stability, Li was at a loss and had nothing to gain, and the bamboo basket was empty. This is the familiar pessimist Woody.
