I'm so tired of watching the movie that I'm not interested in the ending

It can be said that it is a movie that forces me to watch it, and while watching it, I convince myself that "there might be something". Then I can't stand it anymore...

It might be better to check it out after a while.

With all the messy thoughts, I couldn't make up my mind:

David is a man who seeks absolute truth and freedom. I think he is a bit like the protagonist of the moon and sixpence, painted as a picture, but destroyed in the end, just for the ideal in my heart, the pure ideal. As for David, even though his works have made him famous, he is not at all comfortable with it. When he wants to escape, when his desire to be famous is achieved, he can only get a little bit of excitement mixed with nervousness and anxiety. Running all kinds of itineraries is not like joy, but more like "responsibility", being pushed by everything, which is a kind of torture for him who pursues without whitewashing. So, is sometimes the gift of perception a gift, or a punishment? David doesn't know how to write his own work, he's not suited to preach new books and participate in radio, and he always defends himself "I can't" before these things start, but in fact he attracts everyone. When other people's evaluation of him does not match his own perception of himself, he suffers and becomes even more lonely, but where in the world is there a double law? He talked about becoming self-centered when he was creating, taking advantage of other people's feelings, being there when he wanted others, and letting others go when he didn't want to be disturbed, so he would rather not have a partner. David's heart is soft, and truly self-centered people will ignore it. This is another pain. David is easily addicted to various addictions. He tries his best to avoid temptation in life and wants to maintain his "essence", but what is his essence? Is it just him that he doesn't want to reveal the addiction, the arrogance, the pretentiousness? His various thoughts are contradictory, and it is hard not to suffer.

    ★★★☆ If it’s good, a tuberculosis film can be passed as long as it follows the excellent dialogue, can stimulate the chemical reaction between the characters and promote the plot appropriately. The curly hair is still curly hair, and the neurotic speech is fast, the eyes flashing and the expression is embarrassing, which makes Siegel's performance an overwhelmingly outstanding and credible. Speaking of David F Wallace, I wanted to see oblivion and infinite jest a long time ago, but I haven’t done it yet. After watching the movie, I’m really curious.

    A philosophical piece full of philosophical thoughts, the collision of the two writers' thoughts, the dialogue is written quite well, and the golden sentences are repeated. The plot is a little rough, and there are many things that are not clearly explained, such as what happened after the interview draft was written, and the reporter's experience over the years
