what a good story

Woody has no ambitions, just to be a happy storyteller. Tell a story that is not too complicated, and tell it in a fun way.

For example, when Terry gambled money, every time he lost and borrowed money, the audience thought he was going to get into a trap, but the next scene was that he won the money and squandered it. That is to say, although we can speculate on the direction of the whole story, Woody has to make trouble at every step. For example, in the murder part, it had to be a mess; on the aisle, the old man even looked back, it was too bad.

The themes of the story, I think, are pretty old-fashioned. First, be careful what you wish for. A lot of troubles will be settled when Uncle Howard comes, but Old Huo is not a good person.

Second, love and sex. This film is very similar to Barcelona, ​​where there are a pair of girls. And they all seem to be calm and cultured, and they are the first to speak; they are rude and bold and maintain a relatively high level of moral standards. Is it Woody's usual irony style?

The last sentence of the film is the point. "I wore this when Ivan saw me for the first time." Seeing this sexy girl, Ivan couldn't help but drag his brother into the water step by step. But he ended up smashing the bottle, which is right. He shouldn't be so evil.

Cassandra's Dream quotes

  • Father: Nobody wants to be selfish, but everybody is.

  • Mother: Everybody predicted great things for Ian. He's so nice looking and personable. Now, it's a mystery to me why he's not more successful.

    Father: Because he's not content with what he has. He sees himself like Howard, with a fancy life. Always got some scheme. Always waiting for his ship to come in.

    Mother: Well, his ship won't come in at the restaurant. He does that out of a son's love for his father.

    Father: Like the poet said, "The only ship certain to come in has black sails."
