I'm like Pinocchio. I'ma wooden boy, not a real boy, And it kills me.

"TheDouble" is an absolute work of art, the light and shadow and the music complement each other perfectly, and even the light of the printer rotates different colors. On the train, in the elevator, Jesse's left face was bright and his right was dark, his right face was bright and his left was dark. The trains that appear frequently, the elevators that often fail, and the gloomy and absurd atmosphere. The swirling "Colonel", which is mysteriously attractive and therefore amusing, is a kind of metaphor for a funny and appropriate TV program (I have only seen "Crime and Punishment", "Double Personality" in Tuo Weng's works. The grotesque intentions of the people are not analyzed), appearing again and again but never solved, which leads to a closed and self-producing environment, people trapped in such an environment and unable to escape, trying to escape but being pulled back from time to time, forming a Living sets that harmonize with the environment.
The most touching dialogue in the film goes like this, when the docile Simon tells the dick Simon that he thinks of Hannah a lot (a white fairy in the dark Hannah):
Cause I know what it feels like, to be lost and lonely and invisible.
So bastard Simon said:
Simon, you have to go what you want. I would tear anasshole off an elephant for a piece of trim I want that bad.
The docile Simon opened his innocent eyes, and the camera gave him a vulnerable-looking angle:
I've tried talking to her, but I don't know how to be myself. It's like I'm permanently outside myself. Like…like you could push your hand straight through me if you wanted to. And I couldn't see the type of man I wanna be versus the type of man I actually am. And I know I'm doing it but I'm incapable of doing what needs to be done. I'm like Pinocchio. I'ma wooden boy, not a real boy, and it kills me.
The confession is heartbreaking, with a weak, inaudible voice from a powerless little clerk. I often see this sentence appearing in Jesse's work clips at station B, and I believe it touched many people. Based on Toon's original work, perhaps "wanting to be but not being able to be" is the dilemma for everyone, whether it is relative to 19th-century writers or us living in modern times. You want to escape from the self that you hate and can do nothing about. You don't want to pretend to go to Behavegood anymore, no mistakes, no highlights.
So people started to resist.
So there was another Simon, who was a master at picking up girls, a capable boss of the boss, and a liar running rampant. And when everything got out of hand, Simon ended up killing himself - "I have decided to end my life because I no longer exist. I am a ghost. I don't want to be a boy held up by string." Participating in his own mother The funeral, got into a fight with the guy who stole his face, woke up from the grave, called himself the police: "He's about to jump, please hurry." Jumped down, and the last resistance was the devil Own.
There is a thread in the narrative, although it is deliberately fragmented, coupled with absurd dialogues, people's dramatic reactions (the timid Simon can only bear it silently), light, shadow and color cause hallucinations, countless The echoes of the scenes, lines and events make the film's structure exquisite and peculiar. Also, watching this film, you will fall in love with strings! The atmosphere drives the emotions, and the light and shadow cannot be more tightly aligned, just like the feeling of the silent film era.
Finally, an irrelevant mention (after all, I only watched Jesse to watch Jesse, the artistic sense of the film's visual presentation and the unspeakable psychological mapping based on the original cannot be expressed in pale words), what the hell Simon is about how to getlaid Says it this way:
You need to tell them how great you are all the time, which means make things up. Make it hard to research, make you are captain of Jai-Alai (Jai-Alai) team in high school or a brigadier general in the Navy.
and so on. If no one believes-
then change the subject and deny everything.
A person who wants to come by my side makes deny everything amazing, so I think this anti-general method is very useful.
