Not for an idiot

One of the most important intellectuals in the American tradition is William James, a philosopher and psychologist at Harvard University. James co-founded a philosophy called pragmatism, the basic core principle of which is "faith creates actual facts"

Recently, thinking about this idea seriously, I found that it was advocated and defended with great enthusiasm and interest. ——Not in some heavy philosophical essays, as one might expect, but in the movie "Finding Neverland" starring Johnny Depp. Even if the film

​​can’t defend the philosophical idea vigorously, that is, firm conviction, firm conviction, plus purposeful actions, a goal or dream can be achieved—regardless of filmmaker Mark Foster Do you consciously proceed to do this. In this film, the playwright James Barrie (Depp) began to imagine fiercely, until the end, his play "Peter Pan" (Peter Pan) amazed the audience (and us movie audiences). Although "Neverland" can be used as a relaxing entertainment show to spend a few interesting times in the movie, it also operates on this deeper metaphysical level.

Similarly, Alexander Payne’s great, great film side is a textbook that teaches you how to tell a well-made story, in the true Aristotelian sense, the beginning, middle and end of the story. The character development is so detailed that we can easily imagine Rajos Egri smiling at the film in the writing studio in Paradise. The situation is well-prepared, well-prepared, well-arranged, well-prepared, well-arranged, well-arranged, and fascinating. An example of

: At the end of the movie, Miles (paulgiamati) ate alone in a fast food restaurant. In a scene, his emotions demanded that he be isolated, cut off, and inaccessible. The previously seemingly illogical scenes now have meaning-at two key points in the movie, he makes calls through pay phones, items in the booth, and dinosaur artifacts. Looking at this photo, we can't help but think of a question-he does not have a mobile phone? He is the only character in the movie, and maybe the only person in America who doesn't have it now.

But in the end, we understand why this is carefully prepared. In the best classical sense, this is an amazing story, just one of the many great features of the horizontal. People usually don't expect such important problems in Hollywood's "entertainment circle", but in at least these two cases, they will certainly do so.
