Don't let others manipulate your thoughts

There are four labels in the genre: plot, comedy, love, and fantasy. I think there are actually only two: plot and fantasy. Interestingly, under IMDB, the older the age group, the lower the overall score. There is an old saying "a thousand people have a thousand Hamlet", which is actually "a thousand people have a thousand of you", but the latter sentence sounds less persuasive and credible, so you don’t have to bring a Hamlet. It’s the same. The more positive aspect of this reveals: If you want to discuss something, it must be built on a certain basis, just like the saying "The movie does not exist on the screen, but exists in the minds of the audience. "So when something ambiguous and obscure appears and cannot be explained in detail, it is impossible to prevaricate the past by throwing out a surreal statement.

There are a lot of thoughts and explorations in this film, which will also have a certain impact on future movies, such as "Escape from Death" and "Inception". However, the complexity of the details, the unreasonable logic, and the erratic theme are more like a personal thinking process. Some fragments in the process are unclear or redundant, and there is no need to over-interpret. But it still doesn't prevent it from being a fun, thoughtful and expressive movie. Playing between partitions: 7.3-7.8.

This reminds me of some domestic keywords: Hanfu, ancient style. There is a positive side, but it should be just a form, existing in hobbies, and over-advertisement will create some new problems. But most of these new problems can be explained in one sentence: the increasing inner needs and diversity are contradictory with their backward expression ability and wisdom.

Skip directly: fan economy, traffic economy, big data creation, capital manipulation of these.

We use industrialized products, wear them, apply them on our bodies, and eat them. Slowly, I accept industrial cultural products and fill them in my mind. Technological progress is inevitable, but it is also a double-edged sword.

Just like the other title of the film "Life of a Puppet", and the puppets that frequently appear in the film. Seeing those who work hard, I can't help thinking, do you really live for yourself? Or, the way you work hard is just a trick to please others?

In the future, when I meet someone I like, I hope that people don’t like certain industrialized cultural products. I hope that people’s communication is not limited to those. I want people to say simply and purely:

"I like you, your good, like, your bad, it's okay."

    Good philosophy, or do I think deeply?

    In fact, I don't understand what is commendable in this film besides its peculiar creativity, maybe it's not quite the taste. A woman who does not dare to admit her sexual orientation, a woman who is not aware of her sexual orientation, and a man who has not failed so much that he can only accomplish his wishes with the help of other people's bodies. Using a dirty hole to lock a person's soul to complete one's own longevity, I don't understand what can be affirmed in this.
