As early as 30 years ago, Woody made a film of "Sin and Wrong". The actor in that movie was condemned by his conscience for hiring a murderer to kill his mistress, but he managed to get out of the "gloom" in the end. On better days, this kind of "punishment after crime" ending appeared again in "The End of the Game." Many people say that Woody Allen keeps repeating the same paragraph, but in fact this statement is biased. It is true that his films have used the same fonts, classic jazz and classical music for decades, but in his films we can always see the irony of advancing with the times (Woody Allen absolutely He is a superb moderate satirist) and thinking about life. There are similar roles and situations in his movies, but they have different endings. If you are familiar with satire, you can only say that some things in this world have never been Changed. In this world without "standards", even if the law restricts people's behavior, everyone's inner moral standards and bottom line are different. The same is extramarital affairs and murder. Different luck will bring different external pressures. Different religious beliefs, moral senses and even the level of education affect the innermost waves of the parties, and two forces affect the fate and ending of the characters at the same time. Therefore, watching how each vivid character goes to a sad or happy ending has become one of the greatest pleasures of watching Woody Allen movies.
Speaking of this "Kassandra's Dream", the story begins with this ship, and it ends with this ship. At the beginning of the story, it was the wish of the two brothers to achieve, but in the end it became the brothers’ dream. Cemetery. "Dreams are often our grave"-very realistic but very accurate, as Uncle Howard said in the film, "You see an opportunity, you want to seize it, otherwise the rest of your life will be'thinking about me at the time If we seize it, how will we'live it out'? We are eager for opportunities but at the same time we often ignore the cost. We are the most pious when our dreams are the most expensive, but once we put them in our bag, we will never worry about them.
The most important problem is that a person cannot predict himself, cannot control the development of things, cannot guarantee that he will be rewarded for what he pays, and he will not really care about the feelings of others. A person’s limitations determine how he naturally knows how to make things happen. Development in the worst direction has to rely on acquired efforts to learn how to save it, and often ends in failure. Ian in the movie thought that as long as the killing went smoothly, as long as he was still alive, there would be time to help his brother Terry slowly get rid of the demons, but perhaps from the moment the trigger was pressed on the trail that night, their souls had already left them. go. And as an atheist, Woody Allen did not give them a chance to redeem, letting them die in the "Kassandra's Dream". From this point of view, Woody Allen remains unchanged, and he can even hear his non-existent voice-over: "The power that determines our destiny does not come from the outside world, but the moral code of each person."
Many people don't like it. The reasons for "Kassandra's Dream" are almost the same. I think it is too serious. After all, everyone is more accustomed to seeing a Woody Allen who talks into trouble, or his incarnation.
