Features: This book is also written for those who don’t watch movies much and don’t plan to. The reason for discussing movies is just an excuse—they’re actually talking about the world we live in. For example, love, life, nature, war. In fact, you can completely treat this book as an independent collection of essays on literature, art, and social issues. For those who want to watch movies, it can entice you to wish you could get the movie you’re reading about right away. For those who don’t, reading this book won’t leave you with too much incompleteness or regret. That’s Su San’s skill. Compared to general "movie-hunting" books, I’m Obsessed with Discs has a few distinct differences: , there’s an omnipresent "I" in the book, always spouting off; in balance, there are two other recurring characters: "Husband" and "Son." They are both physically husband and son, but also symbols representing popular, market, mainstream, and children’s tendencies. If you don’t find in the "I," you might be drawn to the "Husband" and "Son" as kindred spirits. The is that the movie isn’t too bad. Second, the author never narrates the plot of a movie in a complete and leisurely manner. Her reason is: one of the most important elements of a movie is "suspense." When you want to fully enjoy a feast for the soul, someone else chewing through all the dishes for you is definitely a disappointment, even disgusting. Some books tell you the story, leaving no detail untouched—this is actually wasting something good. Third, the author not only tells you which movies are good but also which are bad, to save valuable time and money by avoiding bad films. In fact, sometimes knowing "which is bad" is more important than knowing "which is good." To achieve this, the author often informs you about the physical state of some movies, such as dubbing, subtitles, sound effects, etc. Of course, this isn’t the case for every movie, only as necessary. Fourth, if you want to quickly understand the author’s evaluation of each movie, just glance at the "Mood Index" hanging at the top left of each chapter. Naturally, "Sunny" is good, and "Cloudy" is a bit worse. Of course, that’s just the author’s personal preference and may not represent yours. Therefore, within the scope of the text, I’ve set up an "Index Analysis" section at the end of each article. After watching the movie, you can fill it out based on your own judgment. It’s also for future reference. Fifth, at the end of the entire book, there’s an index of movie titles for quick retrieval when hunting for films. This is the "Coca-Cola" that Su San offers to everyone. Is it a bit strange? Like a hot Coca-Cola with ginger slices? Su San laughed when she heard this: "That’s just right! It can cure colds, a bit spicy, much better than plain sweetness!" With your evaluation, it truly suits my intention. She’s like this—unconventional, self-assured, and always has been.
