It was supposed to be a Christopher Nolan film, but it was filmed by David Lynch

The plot is actually very simple. Monica is alive and Sophie died when she was a child. But at the same time, Monica lost her memory in that car accident. After waking up, she thought of her as Sophie, so her husband and children at the beginning should have been what Sophie would have been like if she hadn't died ( If Sophie hadn't died, she would have married Monica's brother when she grew up. The mother symbol is misplaced, the white hair is Sophie's mother, and the one in the small dining room is Monica's mother , Since Sophie died, the white-haired Monica has been raised as Sophie, but Monica should only remember that the symbol of mother should be the woman in the diner due to her memory loss, and the other The aspect should be the congenital rejection of unfamiliar women after the loss of memory in the car accident, and then the memory naturally chose a mother symbol engraved in her heart, that is to say, looking at the white-haired one, thinking it was in the tavern)
With when Moni Ka pursued childhood memories (the little girl who kept appearing was what Monica looked like when she was a child), and all the problems were solved naturally. When Monica found out that she was not Sophie, when her heart was truly released, she stood in the living room Li silently watched Sophie say goodbye to her, and then returned to her own trajectory.
This film is a bit expressive in general. I think it can be made more straightforward. There are many techniques that are repeated over and over again. The director just wanted to use this mysterious and mysterious technique to deliberately pull Opening the audience's aesthetic distance makes the audience feel alienated, just like "Mulholland Drive", but different from "Mulholland Drive", the defamiliarization of "Mu" has a kind of deep-seated aftertaste. And I want to go to the limit of the effect of getting closer to it, but the defamiliarization of this film makes people feel irritable after watching the whole film until the end, in other words, it makes people a little bit painful. I think, maybe this is the issue of the "degree" of this so-called expression technique.
In fact, I personally think that this film can be made into a fast-paced commercial film. The psychological struggle can be made a little simpler. Adding some conflicts in commercial films, it will be a good theme. I personally think that at least the effect will be better than now. This way. Just like the title: It was supposed to be a Christopher Nolan film, but it was filmed by David Lynch
