尼古拉斯·凯奇(Nicolas Cage)有新片了,这次他要在电影里演自己。该片主角就是尼古拉斯·凯奇本人,他疯狂的渴望在昆汀·塔伦蒂诺的下部电影里得到一个角色,他经常会和自己脑海中一个90年代的自己对话,后者不断吐槽他“老是接烂片”、“再也不是当年那个电影明星”了。讲述破产边缘的凯奇为了100万美元的酬劳去参加一个亿万富翁粉丝(佩德罗·帕斯卡 饰)的生日派对,但这位富豪是一个危险的毒枭。当凯奇被一名CIA特工招募后,事情发生了意想不到的转变,为了拯救自己和亲人,他被迫出演一个终生难忘的角色——尼古拉斯·凯奇,用他最具标志性和最受喜爱的银幕角色来履行自己的传奇人生。《才华不能承受之重》会有多个桥段向凯奇的代表作致敬,包括《离开拉斯维加斯》(Leaving Las Vegas)、《变脸》(Face-Off)、《极速60秒》(Gone in 60 Seconds)等。影片风格酷似凯奇主演过的2002年电影《改编剧本》(Adaptation),后者是导演斯派克·琼斯与编剧查理·考夫曼联手的杰作。
Once upon a time, the birds and the beasts fought each other in a war. It was a terrible conflict, and the clever bats would side with the birds when the birds were looking victorious, and then they would become allies of the beasts when that side was winning battles. At last the war came to an end, the two parties reached an amicable settlement, and a great party of friendship was held. But when it came to the turn of the bats to perform in the program, their fence-straddling tactics were exposed, and everyone refused to associate with them. Since that time, the bats have been too ashamed to show their faces during the day, coming out only at night to flit silently around.
