Charlie Kaufman is not a choice for pastime watching movies for entertainment, as one of the spiritual icons, he is the person in the film industry who has the most similar creative ideas to me (it's me and him that are close, distant similarity) whether it is writing or shooting. Abstract, overhead realism is also part of my focus. My point is that I can't just talk about reality without metaphors, and I'll feel a little bored.
When it comes to metaphors, I prefer real, tangible images, such as ice cream boxes, slippers, basement washing machines, and parents who are getting older and younger, than fancy ones, such as the dance part.
The latest works can receive the information he wants to express. Wonderful is wonderful. At the beginning, I felt how much this woman hated this man. This man is really pitiful. Later, I found out that this man hates him so much, this man is really pitiful. I thought that the woman "wanted to end all this", but later found out that it was not just the narration that was put as the first point of view, but actually another participant in the story "wanted to end it all", and later found that the narrator was just another participant people in the mind. So everyone wanted to end it all. The imaginary objects in Jake's own created mind hate him so much, which just proves how much contempt and disgust he has for himself, full of negative comments and compassion. The heroine's attitude towards Jake is Jake's attitude towards herself. What a wonderful perspective change. Bring about a change in the structure of the play. The narration is actually not the protagonist, and the sudden change of perspective is a literary structure rather than a film script structure that is deliberately doubled several times. (Like "Emma" like various stage plays. There are many examples. In fact, Kaufman also used a lot of musical elements.)
Jake is the person who hates himself the most, hates his lonely life of inaction, hates his parents and loves them, hates his old state and way of getting old, hates his inability to dig deep into his interests, but he is also the only one People who care about themselves and pity themselves, so I put on a big stage play in my head at the most desperate time. During the watching process, I was amazed that I had the exact same brain activity, imagining what I had to say to everyone I hated on stage, "I exist because of you!", a real speech that didn't care about anything, only It happened at the most desperate time, I was in junior high school and Jake was in his later years. This is a kind of self-rescue. The soul jumps out of the body, abandons the body, and lives alone in a certain world. This is also a kind of mental/self-metacognition exercise.
In the past, people always told me that reading Haruki Murakami's novels felt that Murakami was secretly observing himself in a corner and then writing the plot. I've never experienced this feeling. Charlie Kaufman seems to be connected to my brain. I have this feeling and excitement for every work he has done in the past. Nothing is more blissful than distant resemblance.
