"Becoming John Malkovich", this movie is very meaningful for thinking about the soul, the first half is a bit like the two men in black mirror who fell in love with each other through the virtual characters of the game and became a man and a woman, they suspected I was gay, so I kissed again with my real body, and I found that there was no such feeling, which shows the influence of the body on consciousness. And the deeper meaning of this movie lies in the last two-thirds, towards the end, it can be clearly seen that Mei Xin likes the body of a man, likes John's body, and needs more for the body than for the soul, because she and the soul are inseparable The male protagonist is not bored when having sex, nor does she recognize her, she is just bisexual and homosexual. Psychologically homosexual, but physically heterosexual.
This movie goes deeper than the episode of Black Mirror, one is the immortality of the soul, the other is the nesting doll (not), the doll controls the doll, who is the real human being, although this does not involve the soul, in fact I don't think it's a nesting doll, because from Geiger to John, it's just a transfer of souls, but his expression is quite good.
There are still many details in this movie that are worth pondering and scrutinizing. I will write so much in the first week. I will watch it again when I have the opportunity to understand those who are not clear. For example, who is the old man in Professor Liszt's room, John enters What you see in your hole, what do you want to express, etc.
