Decadent, restless, perplexed, and hesitant may not be enough to describe the life of the "old" (people in 50s, are they old?) writers/teachers who have fallen into disrepair after the glory. Just in creation and life (marriage) In his double embarrassment, he saw a "young", a genius who makes people jealous and enviable, a genius with youth and hope, and an elusive "student" who seems to live in another world. A series of absurd events afterwards Here, they face opportunities, regrets, gains, and losses. And all this seems to be about "MAKING CHOICE". In fact, who is not facing a choice every minute? It's just that the choice is right and at a different stage of life. The meaning of the people is different.
The protagonists in the story are a few writers, editors, and teachers who are more or less dealing with words. The story actually revolves around life and creation. These two are like "mirror images". "Which is the reality, which is the imaginary, true and false are all in one thought. But the "bridge" of this thought happens to be the agility of creation. Marriage failure, exhaustion of inspiration, and writers who are addicted to marijuana will finally be able to Has he found his "smart place" after crossing the barrier between illusion and reality? Does the so-called "choice" give him inner peace? This kind of struggle is in sharp contrast to the talent of genius students, but they are in the soul There are resonances and sorrows again in the depths. Their similarities and differences make me vaguely doubtful, but I can't express them clearly. I can only say that I saw two parallel lines extending in the same direction, and maybe they have the same twists and turns. , The same downfall, the same unpredictable as fate itself.
For the storyline, the only thing I personally don’t like is the ending. I understand that the ending is a bit "remedy", of course, a gentle explanation, one" "HAPPY ENDING" is always relieved. If this story happens in reality,I also sincerely hope that this happens and develops. But in movies, I always look forward to something "broken" and "difficult to let go".
(Speaking of the movie itself, the role played by MICHAEL DOUGLAS made me unexpectedly "not hate" the star (I always look at him uncomfortable), and "Spider-Man"'s performance back then did not disappoint. Frances McDormand, the dean of the supporting role, is a powerful faction I have always liked, and the editor Robert Downey Jr.'s somewhat exaggerated interpretation adds a bit of comic and humor to the story. In addition, Katie Holmes, who is now the lady of science truth teaching, is nothing wonderful and nothing. Negligence. The cast is still strong enough, and the plot arrangement is somewhat ingenious. Overall, this is a movie worth watching.)
