A conversation with a ghost after a suicide?
A conversation between a schizophrenic and an imaginary person?
Cormac McCarthy's script ignores the environment outside the dialogue between the two, and uses the trivial content of the conversation to speculate on death, belief, and the collision of two world views.
It's just that such a work is just copied, so why should it be adapted into a movie? It will be more enjoyable to put two actors in a theater to perform in one go, but it will become a disadvantage if it is placed on the big screen, and it will not be able to show other advantages of the movie. Nor is the achievement of literature and performance a fuller manifestation. The only result is that it can be seen by audiences all over the world.
So if you are a director who is a bit pioneering or a little bit subversive of consciousness, maybe he will insert some shots of related things and things, or make some movements through more space-empty shots. In fact, such a subject provides a rich space for play.
