death in replication

Christopher Nolan + Christian Bale + Hugh Jackman + Rebecca Hall + Scarlett Johansson Because of belief, what can we sacrifice? self. Regarding the magic of pigeons, children can see the truth at a glance, "one must have been killed", indeed, this is a routine of killing one and staying. Just like in "The Emperor's New Clothes", only children dare to tell the truth, and only children dare to use naivety to break through reality. We played roles with each other, exchanged, experienced each other, and finally separated. This is the story of two brothers. We repeat ourselves, kill ourselves, duplicate, destroy, and finally fall apart. This is the story of the nobility. The whole tone is dark. This tragedy seems to be a microcosm of reality. We do everything we can to achieve our beliefs. However, are these beliefs really worth it? What makes a work outstanding is not that it just tells a simple and complex story, but the human nature behind the story that is waiting for the audience to interpret it layer by layer. This kind of suspense is not something we don’t know, but is ignored by us. When we were awakened, we were amazed and praised again and again.

    One of the seven favorite films in life. The Nolan brothers are a pair of ingenious craftsmen who lack originality. The achievement of adapting the stone of another mountain is destined to be far better than the golden broom, and this film is undoubtedly the most suitable stage for them, not because of the multi-line narrative, but also because of this. The essence of the story is how a pair of "brothers" who are paranoid about adapting other people's techniques as their life's work (mentally and physically) break the stage itself, and they are also destined to coincide with the Nolans.
