Plain and wonderful American drama

Hate loneliness and love loneliness, it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter.

The deluded present is the past, and the superstitious present is not necessarily the future.

I have made many promises, but I have come back to my senses.

What do I want,

I want a friend, not a life.

To MANIAC

great. Retro style, dim light, and advanced AI technology are an ingenious combination that can make people imagine but actually feel the grim facts of real life. It is enough to see the keen insight and profound skills of NETFLI as a new media, which is worth learning from.

Life is far less exciting than an unreal world, and short-lived fragments of memory are all you can have.

    After one day, I still feel a little bit of Inception. PS: The long shot of the ninth episode is very handsome!

    If you look at the director’s pedigree, Fukunaga jumped from TD’s "serious literature" style to Maniac, which showcases the spectrum of American culture in the 20th century. The audience can easily visit Lynch, Kaufman, PTA, Ultraman, and Ku Traces of the works of masters such as Brick – of course, because they all belong to the spectrum shown in this play – so for those who love movies, Maniac is a rare collection of audio-visual enjoyment. What’s more interesting is that this neurodrama begins by proposing that neuroscience experiments abandon interviews and adopt experimental methods are a rebellion against Freud, but this drama wanders the ghost of psychoanalysis: experimenters including the two protagonists. The traumatic core and the little things that caused them to insane; the test host was called by his father’s name and suffered the original loss of losing his mother; of course, he built and connected a series of imaginative scenes through the projection, and finally lifted the weight lightly. The secret of love-drop defense mechanism. The two finally drove out of the place where the lunatics were disciplined, and it was very touching. The people they loved finally escaped from the "locked room" and faced the future.
