Watching such a miraculous movie, I was spiritually polluted with the male protagonist.
I once also had a stage where my consciousness was stripped away every day during this period of time. Shouldn't the term "meta-consciousness" be used? In short, during that time, I looked at myself and everything around me all the time. Like a director (the director may not be suitable, a cameraman may be more suitable), watching the actors step by step. Every moment, it is not integrated into life. Every moment, try to understand the meaning behind things. And the problem that often presses me down and makes me unable to breathe is what is the meaning of my life. And, whether there is an unearthly meaning, which I cannot understand.
Although I have long searched for the meaning of this world - the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of the meaning that I have given myself. I am the subject of the ego, and I give myself meaning. But is there any other explanation? I'm curious. I came up with various hypotheses. Imagining and at the same time deeply feeling that I can't imagine what I really don't know. Maybe, in my limited life, I will gradually know more things, but there are still more things I cannot know. Maybe the meaning of my life is hidden in it, hidden in the part of the world that I can't understand.
But since I can't know, I won't change my pursuit in this world -- the pursuit of happiness. However, there are always moments in life when people are very vulnerable and temporarily forget their own principles and their own pursuits. For example, at the moment of watching "Illusion of Death", I was not vulnerable because of watching a movie or watching a movie, but because the trivialities of reality made me very vulnerable and at the same time I was watching this interesting movie.
I really don't want my non-worldly meaning to be the same as the male lead in this movie.
Of course, it is also possible that there is no such so-called meaning.
In the end, the movie is a good movie.
