In fact, the focus of the film is not blindly about magical psychics or the afterlife world. It is about the feelings between people, and it is a work full of warmth. One commented: "Clint Eastwood has made a film unlike any other, he has completely changed his directing style. The whole film is very entertaining. From beginning to end, every second is engrossing Yes." But in this slightly niche film, Clint Eastwood actually maintained some of his own style: stubborn, stubborn, low-key, very fond of his director's film style, with an old style It is elegant, but in terms of themes and techniques, we can see a lot of new ideas. . .
Clint Eastwood said: "This is a film with three short stories. At the beginning, the three short stories have nothing to do with each other, but later on, you will find that there are thousands of connections between them. .The last three stories come together. To be honest, it's really hard to screw the three threads together. There are a lot of French and European films that tell stories like this, and at the end of the film, let fate and God's will Arrange the protagonists together." Eastwood's "Europeanization" attempt has been recognized by many people. Matt Damon, knowingly or unintentionally, called the film "Eastwood's French Cinema". . .
Matt Damon's performance in the film is very good, very deep, very textured, and if he continues to work with Clint Eastwood, he will have more room for improvement. . .
The screenwriter of the film is the famous Pete Morgan, who has written the scripts of "The Last Dictatorship", "The Queen" and "Foster Talks to Nixon". In fact, Pete Morgan had no hope that his script could be made into a movie, or even profitable. In March 2008, DreamWorks bought the script. But DreamWorks didn't take a fancy to the project, and only offered it a million-dollar production cost. In money-burning Hollywood, this is an out-and-out "ultra-low-budget movie." Not only that, but the owner of DreamWorks, Steven Spielberg, was also dissatisfied with the script. He believes that "the end of the film is too depressing, too low-key, and the audience will not like it". At his request, Morgan revised the script, adding an upward ending to it. But when the film finally started shooting, it used the original ending. . .

    The opening scene of the disaster finally explained the visual effects of why the film was nominated for Oscar, which was really shocking. The three lines did not constitute a magical chemical effect, but weakened the plot and emotion. Dongmutou, who is over eighty years old, in this movie is not so much about human nature and emotions, it is more about his future life.
