The decadent male protagonist who goes out with the workers at the beginning of the film is a reality, and the whole film after that shows the fantasy of different characters including the male protagonist: why the male protagonist does not look like a normal person after discovering the murder in the park Call the police or track down all the way, but are constantly interrupted by some irrelevant things that can be subjectively avoided? For a while I was entangled in the studio with two girls who wanted to be models, and for a while I grabbed the singer's broken guitar at an underground concert, and finally fell asleep directly in the room of the bar, because the murder case was simply the fantasy of the male protagonist. The photo taken in the park is real, but the woman in the photo did not come to the man’s house to ask for a photo. The plot of coming to the man’s house to ask for a photo is a fantasy; the pistol and the shooter in the photo are fantasy; The corpse is a fantasy; the two girls did come looking for the male protagonist, but the scene of stripping the two girls' clothes is a fantasy; the Rolls-Royce is also a fantasy of the male protagonist who has no money; The fantasy given after the painting; the value of the broken guitar handle chased by the crowd is the collective fantasy of the crowd chasing it, and if it is thrown on the street, it will return to an objective garbage worthless state; the male protagonist asks the female model: Are you at this time? Shouldn't it be in Paris, female model: this is Paris, and it's fantasy; at the end of the film, the male protagonist imagines the real crowd playing tennis on the tennis court as a mime, and at the moment when the tennis ball is thrown upwards The sound of contact with the racket appeared, and the male protagonist returned to reality, returning to the state at the beginning of the film. The whole film is reality-fantasy-reality.
This film is not a suspense film, a drama film, or a film of any kind. It is just an objectively existing film. Any attempt to classify the film or deconstruct the content to give its meaning and central idea is fantasy and blow-up. , and the behavior of the male protagonist zooming in on the photo and fantasizing that there is no murder is of the same nature. Does the director have any intentions? Personally, I don’t think so. Even if there is, it’s not very strong. In other words, the director’s only intention is to have no intentions. Let everyone use their own philosophical qualities to recreate a film at will. Maybe this is the great part of this film. It seems that the social, cultural and political trends of any era can be incorporated into this film, and this film will be destined to " Being "classicized", the so-called "big sound", nothing is said, and everything is said, it's all said by you to help the director, haha. Compared to Wong Kar Wai's pointless pretentious literary films, I prefer this movie. It's a very smart movie. It's very simple to make a movie without subjective intentions. It takes two hours to shoot a piece of shit and a wall. That said, making a film that doesn't make sense but evokes the desire to create and comment on audiences of philosophers of different ages is no easy feat.
