It is recommended to watch it twice.

First of all, let me talk about the problems of most movie fans. In the
film
, "if you are psychiatrists, tell me how to get Donna",
"you can give her flowers and give her little blue flowers".
There are two explanations:
1. It is because of small The blue flower is also the hope of the world in the movie.
2.D can make his actress insane. (The doctor was just joking with Keno.)
In my opinion D is a last resort measure to control population growth, a disguised Darwinian principle of saving the survival of the fittest.
-------------------------------------
Let's talk about my views on this film:
First It seems that the whole play is generally bland, not as exciting as in the popcorn sci-fi movie. However, the suspense is well done, and it is about 90 minutes later that some of the film's memes are slowly revealed by Keno being sent to a drug rehab center. Robert Downey Jr. performed as usual in the film. The author felt that his temperament in the film was always by his side, a little neurotic and cynical. (See Iron Man and Detective Sherlock Holmes) But I have to say that this suspicious and sensitive James is indeed suitable for him. From the large space in his eyes and body movements, people can speculate, maybe he is playing in his true colors. And Woody Harrelson had to praise his acting. Born in 1961, he was able to perform a crazy immature Beatle so brilliantly that it is worth trying to figure out his movements and words. There are two places in the film where he does a really good job: one when James rides an 8-speed bike he bought for $50, and the second is when the brakes fail until he gets home. The author has the deepest memory of these two places. The former performed his militant rebellion, while the latter performed the character's desire for freedom (he was afraid of entering a drug rehab center or prison) and his rebellion more delicately. Speaking of Donna, Donna's sexual frigidity during her undercover career laid the groundwork for her being Bob's boss, and she actually thinks drug addicts are disgusting and don't want physical contact with them.
In this film, the crazy performance of the three drug addicts after taking the D virus and the constant psychological suggestion of the whole film will push the final ending to a climax. From the beginning of Bob's speech to the end of entering drug rehab. No matter how his beliefs have not changed, he still insists on his desire for a better life, does not need to escape from reality or be controlled by drugs, he insists on his own principles, so at the end of the film, the little blue flower is hidden in his boots.
This is the owner's own opinion, the first time to write a movie review, thank you for watching

    The picture style is cool. Even with an outstanding ideology, it is a pawn after all, a very meaningful movie

    I'm dizzy...but...if I know his thoughtfulness...it's a good movie

A Scanner Darkly quotes

  • Fred: What does a scanner see? Into the head? Into the heart? Does it see into me? Clearly? Or darkly?

  • Fred: [voiceover] Crazy job they gave me. But if I wasn't doing it, someone else would be. And they might get it wrong. They might set Arctor up, plant drugs on him and collect a reward. Better it be me, despite the disadvantages. Just protecting everyone from Barris is justification in itself. What the hell am I talking about? I must be nuts. I know Bob Arctor. He's a good person. He's up to nothing. At least nothing too bad. In fact, he works for the Orange County Sheriff's office covertly, which is probably why Barris is after him. But that wouldn't explain why the Orange County Sheriff's office is after him. Something big is definitely going down in this house. This rundown, rubble-filled house with its weed patch yard and cat box that never gets emptied. What a waste of a truly good house. So much could be done with it. A family and children could live here. It was designed for that. Such a waste. They ought to confiscate it and put it to better use. I'm supposed to act like they aren't here. Assuming there's a "they" at all. It may just be my imagination. Whatever it is that's watching, it's not human, unlike little dark eyed Donna. It doesn't ever blink. What does a scanner see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me, into us? Clearly or darkly? I hope it sees clearly, because I can't any longer see into myself. I see only murk. I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better. Because if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I do, then I'm cursed and cursed again. I'll only wind up dead this way, knowing very little, and getting that little fragment wrong too.
