A and B

I understand it as a double revenge story, two worlds, I liken the real world to World A, the world in the book to World B, and their intersection I liken to C, the abandoned writer husband .

No one made mistakes when they were young, and they were confused. But a woman will always become more and more like her mother. Whether this argument is true or false, I have the right to regard it as true now, because the development of the story requires it, so it is true. Then the heroine in the film, in order to satisfy the petty bourgeoisie sentiment and expense, abandoned her husband who she thought was brilliant at first, and completed the standard petty bourgeoisie life, but such petty bourgeoisie life is like a cage, without the passion of life, let alone the purpose of life. After 20 years, her first husband sent a book full of violence and practical helplessness, and when her current husband was in economic crisis, the timing was very accurate, and she was old and senile. The little hooligans in the B world, I have the right to take it as an analogy to the petty bourgeoisie who stole the author's wife.

A and B worlds have nothing in common at all, but these two worlds make me feel a little strange, so why do you spend so much time discussing the death of the author's wife, and then the vengeful world B comes out?

Then I made various speculations, thinking that the financial crisis of the petty bourgeoisie in the A world was caused by the author? It makes sense that there is no wife at all for the final appointment.

But no matter whether it makes sense or not, in short, the story is not very interesting, just unfounded conjectures will make people feel that it lacks charm, the B world makes me less interested, and the A world makes me avoid it.

"Enjoy this absurd world." The United States may be the most absurd country. It concentrates all the good and evil of human beings, and makes use of all available resources.

In the peak of the financial industry, Wall Street, warships, aircraft carrier battle groups, a group of followers surrounded this big brother, but the United States has lived the way he hates the most.

The last shot, she waited for a long time. Unforgivable is the best ending.

The novel in the movie completes the revenge in the general sense, and also uses the death of the protagonist in the novel to tell about the relationship and the end of love.

The first time I watched the movie, I didn't understand many details, maybe I experienced less at that time, and I watched the movie again today. The film has stood the test of time, and while it's not outstanding, it's brilliant. As for those exes who are old and dead, only the exes who died are good exes. If you don't get hurt to the core, you won't understand how much love can hurt. I am on the earth, the biggest sin is not having money, not having too much and not knowing how to cherish it.
