This is definitely a high-end artwork in a movie

It's the second time I've seen this movie. The last time I was in college, I bought and understood everything. This time I read it twice, and I was very moved.

The heroine of the story, Emily, was misdiagnosed as a heart attack by her quack father since she was a child. As a result, the heroine lost the opportunity to play with her classmates and developed a withdrawn and cowardly character.

When Emily grew up, she moved out and lived on her own. One day, she found a small tin box that was treasured in her room. The tin box contained old objects from Jia's childhood (I forgot what it was called here, let's call it It is A). Emily decided that night to find the man and return the tin box to A, and if A was grateful, then she would go on to do more good things.

Emily finally found A after much trouble, and secretly returned the iron box to him. Because Emily returned the iron box to its original owner in some fantastic way, Xa firmly believed that all this was arranged by an angel. A went to the bar that night, crying and deciding: I want to forgive my daughter who has not been in contact for many years.

Emily was inspired by the tin box, and helped a blind man cross the road that day, and at the same time helped him describe the beautiful world in front of him vividly.

Later, Emily helped a female neighbor B. Many years ago, B's husband was rumored to have an affair with the secretary, and the two eloped after embezzlement. B still loves her husband deeply, and can only rely on alcohol to numb herself every day, and her life is dark. Later, Emily secretly copied the letter B's husband had written to B, cut out some words, pieced together a letter, and sent it to B, making B believe that her husband had always loved her. The design here is really amazing. The director first gave a piece of Emily watching the news. The content roughly said that a newspaper said that a wrecked mail plane was found somewhere. letter. The director asked Emily to later compile a letter on the subject and send it to B as the post office. Such a white lie must really be designed with care. ,

Emily also stole Dad's favorite dwarf, asked her flight attendant friend to travel with the dwarf, and then sent her father a selfie while traveling as a dwarf. One day later, the dwarf was secretly sent back to his father's house by Emily, but his father gained the courage to travel and began to travel alone.

Emily's hobby is to pick up pebbles and float them in the pool. The male protagonist's hobby is to collect the shredded photos next to the self-service snapshot machines in the subway station, and then put those shredded photos back together to make a photo album.

The director also dug a big hole here, and there is a bald man in the album who always takes pictures one afternoon, and then rips it off. A total of 20 times (maybe 12 times, I forgot, it doesn't matter) the director borrowed Emily to guide the audience to guess, maybe this mysterious person took pictures like this because he didn't want to grow old, and he took this as a ritual. But the final answer is this: this person repaired this self-service machine specially, and every time he finished the repair, he had to take a selfie to try it out. Funny, I'm still trying to laugh as I write this.

Emily has also helped a lot of people, so I won't go into details here, just go and see for yourself.

What amazes me is that I discovered that this writer really likes to put people's hobbies in the story. Such as pinching bubbles, peeping, etc. The whole article can intuitively feel the director's clever and jumping brain holes and informal realization methods. I believe that when artists watch this film, they will definitely find it very enjoyable, because this film has some kind of indescribable jump. feeling. This kind of feeling reminds me of Marquez's seemingly absurd but profound writing in Hundred Years of Solitude; in the invisible city, it seems trivial, but in fact, under each piece of writing, there is something the author has about the city. a special feeling.

At this moment, I really began to suspect that I was just an ordinary person, not a genius 233 (I really believed that I was quite gifted at one time). Because I really think that I may never be able to write such a jumping but logical work in my life, probably only geniuses can make such works.
