Speaking of which, this is a simple story. A young writer who is facing a difficult situation in his life is unappreciated, his works are uninterested, and his survival is difficult, let alone getting ahead. At this time, by chance, he came across a wonderful work without the author's name. He was full of entanglements and at a loss, probably because of the temptation that he could impersonate, the struggle to face the temptation, or the loss because he did not possess such talent... Finally, he copied the full text on the computer.
My lover thought it was his work. After reading it, I was greatly moved and suggested that he must submit it. Later... He became famous because of this work, the first place on the bestseller list, fame and fortune.
Then, one afternoon, an old man met him in Central Park, and the original author came... .
This is an exquisite story. There are three scenes and stories interspersed throughout the film, namely, the story of the old man and the work, the story of the young man who wants to become famous, and the story of the young man many years later. The three stories are interspersed without any confusion, and the emotions are smooth and natural. Whether it's the old man's young love story in France or the struggles, longings and struggles of the young writer in the main scene, the pace is great. Especially the story of the old man when he was young does not have a lot of ink, but the surprise, affection, helplessness and pain are all regrettable.
This is a story about temptation and price. It is different from our common movie ideas. There is no evil or madness in the story. It has become a murder.) It is just the struggle, compromise and price of ordinary people in the face of temptation. There are some details to illustrate the character of this young man. He is a man with a bottom line. When his book is possible, but needs to be published in someone else's name, he refuses; when he knows that the old man is the original author, he also thinks. Make up for it, remove your signature, publish the facts, etc. At the same time, he is vulnerable. When temptation comes, he compromises; when the truth comes, he needs to be drunk to tell his wife the truth, and even blame his wife for knowing that he did not write the work when she saw it. So, he is an ordinary person.
Different from common routines, the old man did not ask him to compensate, make up, let him announce the truth, and be ruined. Let him go and he can go on with his life. Even weeks later, the old man passed away and the truth was no longer in danger of being revealed.
But is there no cost to this? ——Of course not. Later books published by young people tell the truth in the form of stories, perhaps for liberation, perhaps for redemption. As for the wife, they have long been separated..., some things are standing there, can't be bypassed, can't be ignored....
who are you? You are what you did; You are what you choose; You are what you read. Every vulnerability, every compromise, every temptation, must be repaid. . . .
