Interesting → Excited → Suspicion Oh, it turns out I was a fool, I didn’t recognize the Woody Allen interview, the narration and the zoomed-in photos, the damaged texture of the black-and-white dithering film, the Warner’s movie, at first I really thought I was watching a documentary, Until something went wrong... Interesting → Allusions When I found out that it was a pseudo-documentary and looked at it from another angle, it was still interesting. As the story developed, it gradually touched the core Woody Allen wanted to express: self The first half of the era is just a curiosity about chameleons, and the second half is the response of the era. True and false scandals start to hit the chameleon Cili when he's back to normal and famous, because people don't go to the trouble of mentally ill. Later, his wonderful flying performance to get rid of the Nazi pursuit once again inspired people's love for curiosity and let go of the old hatred. I think it would be more fun to have such a chameleon without therapy, it's boring to flatten everyone out. Chameleons are not a disease at all but a talent. But this is completely the strangeness of the strange news. Although it can be done very well, it is not the truth that Woody Allen wants to express.
