The most absurd Sahuan rolling and the deadliest reality

This is a typical Coen-style work that is not amazing but absolutely enjoyable. It is full of nonsense, stupid idiots, and branches... It is pushed to the extreme and even paranoid Coen-style black humor and shocking surprises. The great gift package was given out at a great value. After reading it, I really felt like having a full meal. I'm not a fan of Coen, but this film is very satisfying to me precisely because it is very Coen. I seem to hear the two brothers saying: "Don't you like these things in our movie? I will give you all this time. Okay." After watching [Old Wusuo], we may be a little uncomfortable with this film: won't it be so easy? Wouldn't it be such a hippie smiley face? Wouldn't it be such a spoof? But this time, the Coen brothers just threw out their childlike innocence and became a kid, and they were full of joy and rolling. When I was watching the film, I seemed to see the childish and smirk of the two behind the screen.

This mentality of being willing to let go and roll around is really embodied in this film too thoroughly. Watching the plot, N many fools, N many clues, almost all of the characters on the stage can be connected online. The complicated relationship between the characters has made you dizzy, and the plot development is even more unpredictable. All people's actions are so nervous, all the turning points are so inexplicable, the whole story is crazy, all absurd, or in other words-purely the product of Sa Huan's rebellion. So the protagonists followed the director to do their best to roll around, pretending to be idiots one by one. Just like so many classmates like to watch "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", I know it is meaningless, but I just think it's fun and innocent. Such a sloppy work is naturally not serious. The film is always full of black humor and all kinds of silly jokes. I have never seen Coen's film to be like this easily. So you can’t ask for anything in this movie. It’s not necessarily good to talk about the quality of this movie, but everyone just tacitly appreciates a light-hearted and absurd stupid hat story with the same silly attitude. In the end of this story, some people died naturally, and they died suddenly and cruelly, but they did not give people a sense of grief. Just like the end of the drama, we are also happy enough, the protagonist will naturally leave.

But for Coen's work, the more absurd and absent, the more worthy of contemplation. In Coen's works, cruelty, mockery of reality, despair, and utter madness have always been eternal themes. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a deep sadness. To some extent, the more absurd, the more real it is. In this drama, all people are crazy and all actions are nonsensical. Perhaps this is the extreme reaction of people in this world who are more or less distorted by the desires of reason and soul. If [Old Nowhere] is still a kind of despair, [Burn after reading] is simply helpless-this kind of truth is fatal. Maybe the world itself is so crazy, but we are so crazy that we don't realize that we can only go to extinction in this kind of madness, and be forever? Thinking about it this way, I feel that this film is grayer than [Old Nowhere]. So please don't pay attention to my nonsense, just do a fool's hat immersively.
