A satire on depressed and crazy existentialists and young women who are rich in material and spirit.
His material life must be worry-free, and he is very fortunate to be supported by the external environment to continue his philosophical thinking. By extension, it does not necessarily have to be above material wealth and well-off, but he is enough to deal with the reality he is in.
He has his own principles and ideas about philosophical research and the world, and he is confused when he encounters problems in the perfect stage. Only when he is confused does he have the opportunity to devote all his time and energy to thinking.
He is depressed and fragile, and thinking about philosophical problems that seem unsolvable is destined to make him depressed; the depressed state that has been encouraged and maintained has not brought trouble to his life, but has brought more comfort and satisfaction. He likes this state of depression and makes peace with depression and reality, for a while.
He's crazy, and his depression and thinking lead him to run around as he pleases, to do a lot of seemingly abnormal behavior. And his existing aura makes people around him think that he is unfathomable, and all his words and deeds have a charming, profound and mysterious color.
Ah, it's so well shaped anyway. The actor's performance seems to be somewhat artificial, pretending to be deep, but it can also be understood as a kind of irony. Speaking of irony, the film's portrayal of "a bit of a brainy and simple-minded person" -- a labelled "literary woman" -- is really ironic.
"Literary and artistic women" are really easy to be attracted by a person with above-mentioned qualities. They are often girls who are rich in material and spirit, good in appearance and talent, harmonious in interpersonal communication, and feel good about themselves. They want to approach, warm, and save such a girl. Vulnerable people; also feel that there is always something lacking in life, and want to throw yourself into the whirlpool to find a home.
In fact, since she is not born crazy, don't go get together. She also won't abandon everything she has in order to be crazy. If she doesn't have a certain feeling and belief, don't waste the life that others envy, and don't occupy that role.
In short, if the ending is not like this, it is ideal. But this movie is a reality. He is incomplete, wrong, atypical, she is suboptimal, vulgar, uncomfortable. In short, this is a satirical, shattering, realistic film.
I feel like I don't want to go on talking.
