Confessions of a Dangerous Mind

This film is George Clooney's directorial debut. I didn't expect this Hollywood bachelor to have a talent for director. This film feels like a mixture of commercial and experimental films. Clooney's face is still quite big, and many stars have guest appearances in it. In addition to Big Mouth Sister, Brad Pitt and Matt Demon played two roles that passed by in a flash. Clooney himself is no exception, acting as an FBI agent. The screenwriter of the film is also very famous, that is, being John Malkovich and Charlie Kaufman of Adaptation. It can be seen that Clooney is very thoughtful on this film, and many shots are indeed handled well and the connections are very tight, but some of them are fancy. On the whole, this story is a bit too bizarre, although it is said to be adapted from real people. It's black humor, but I feel that the irony is not thorough enough.
