Some thoughts:
1. Actors and stars, who were shrouded in halo in the past, were unknown afterward. The huge mistakes made people feel extremely depressed and could not bear the mediocre life.

2. Life itself is a tragedy. Everyone lives on, and everything goes wrong. Everyone is a loser.

3. Forgive yourself and reconcile with life. Don't live too tired.

4. The public only pursues novelty and eye-catching things for movies, such as when the actor gets an erection on the stage, and the actor commits suicide on the stage. In fact, the reason is the loneliness and emptiness in their hearts.

5. Super powers are all fantasy of the protagonist, indulging in the time when he was a superhero in the old days, unable to extricate himself. schizophrenia.

6. In the end the father committed suicide because it was unbearable to be successful in this way (hype not work), irony.
