Despite second thoughts about their relationship, a young woman (Jessie Buckley) takes a road trip with her new boyfriend (Jesse Plemons) to his family farm. Trapped at the farm during a snowstorm with Jake's mother (Toni Collette) and father (David Thewlis), the young woman begins to question the nature of everything she knew or understood about her boyfriend, herself, and the world. An exploration of regret, longing and the fragility of the human spirit, I'M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS is directed and written by Academy Award® winner Charlie Kaufman (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). Inspired by Iain Reid's bestselling namesake novel

Toni Collette, David Thewlis

Another metanarrative from cinematic postmodernist master Charlie Kaufman, I'm Thinking of Ending Things, perhaps, enters the terrain of the mind-game film, or puzzle picture, more so than the rest of his prior, albeit still characteristically offbeat, oeuvre. The boundaries between fantasy and reality are more blurred than in, say, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" 2004) or "Synecdoche, New York" 2008. Once one discovers, however, that the disjointed surrealism of what we're viewing is the mental gymnastics of an unreliable narrator- to the point that we're misled by the voiceover and seeming protagonist as to the identity of the real narrator, the janitor- it becomes easier to appreciate the construction and what is a rather depressing story when one strips it down to the bones. Not only that we're seeing the probable suicide of a man cut off from the world despite cleaning up after it and from romance despite reading and watching its fictionalization, I'm thinking of Ending Things" is also a disconcerting tract on the relationship between movies and spectator, of the "societal malady" of seeing "too many movies, as the couple claim on their road trip- movies as rabies virus, as monster- replacing original or real thinking. Good thing the car's vanity mirror is broken; it may be uncomfortably close to home to look into this one.
If we flatter ourselves that it's not a clever movie such as this that's warping our minds, or whatever else sophisticated cinema and art one might hold dear, Kaufman does offer some other targets. The low-hanging fruit is the abominable rom-com, which appears here as a film-within-the-film directed by, of all the random people, Robert Zemeckis (in an interview, Kaufman makes it clear that this gag truly was random, as it's hardly the sort of trash that Zemeckis is known for- any of his trash is of another order- but rather the sort of sleaze from the likes of, say, Judd Apatow, Richard Curtis, Cameron Crowe, Nora Ephron, Garry Marshall or Nancy Meyers. Indeed, the woman in the outer film, providing the misleading voiceover narration, is something of a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, or Wordsworth's Lucy. She's of no identity herself- her name, profession or where she grew up (is it a farm or an apartment) are constantly altered, as is how they met- merely a figment of the male hero's imagination, a janitor who has seen too many rom-coms and so now dreams of his younger self, Jake, visiting his parents, to introduce them to his fictional girlfriend. It's no wonder she doesn't know whether it's her or Jake in that childhood photograph and no wonder he seems to be able to hear her thoughts; they're of the same mind, so why not the same body, too. In one brief shot, the actress playing the young woman is even replaced by the actress from the Zemeckis inner film.
Apropos to all its reflexivity, there are several (that's more than two, as Jake says) doppelgängers. Films-within-films turning into musicals-within-musicals, books within a movie adapted (reportedly, loosely) from a book, twin swing sets, maggot-filled pigs conflated with ice-cream commercial animation, characters assuming different ages and actors portraying them, including Jake and his girlfriend being substituted for an extended interpretive dance. Part of the enjoyment of "I'm Thinking of Ending Things" is just in connecting all of these threads- even its title has a double meaning, of ending the relationship and of his life. Jake's reality may be more relatable to "A Woman Under the Influence" 1974) having taken care of either of his parents experiencing dementia, but even this is attacked as his imaginary companion does a full-on impersonation of Pauline Kael (whose book we see among his childhood room's collection) quoting her review of the film verbatim while smoking the only cigarette seen in the entire runtime. This scene alone is enough for me to recommend "I'm Thinking of Ending Things." Medical or physics student, poet, artist, waitress, film critic: the Manic Pixie Dream Girl is whomever he needs her to be- even if it's to expose the haunted house, horror-film facade behind the door of his basement subconscious.
While the musical references and, namely, those of "Oklahoma! may not be as snippy as the criticism of rom-coms, Kaufman's strongest attack seems to be reserved for the movie that is unannounced (except for maybe a glimpse of a DVD case in the bedroom) in its allusion, A Beautiful Mind" 2001) for which Jake recites its sappy Nobel Prize acceptance speech. It's not only artificial for the stage backdrop from "Oklahoma! or that Jake follows it up by singing one of that musical's tunes; there's the manipulative background score during his oration, the blatant make-up to appear older, and, of course, his older, nude self was led to the stage by a CGI pig. Moreover, this highly musical climax comes on the heels of one of the movie's odd politically-correct discussions- in this case, the claim that "Baby, It's Cold Outside" is a rape song (perhaps intentionally, the most muddled refutation of allegedly offensive language is when Billy Crystal, of the rom-com "Forget Paris" 1995) is called a "nancy. That certainly tinges, or colors, the subsequent adoption of musical elements and tactics of manipulative, coercive cinema for the climax.
It's kind of funny, too, because Ron Howard's Best Picture winner, A Beautiful Mind, is also a mind-game film, but even in that regard it's frustratingly simplistic and hollowly engineered. Not so "I'm Thinking of Ending Things." There are tricks with the voiceover, including occasional overlapping mumbled narration and phone calls from the janitor; the initially misleading and ultimately revealing crosscutting between the couple with scenes of the janitor; the horrific, romantic and musical genre hopping; along with the general visual and audial oddities and surrealism with philosophical detours. It's reflexivity in calling attention to its own artifice is no celebration of cinema, but it's not hollow and simplistic, either, to show the mirror to the void of a quiet life of desperation filled by dreams and memories infected by art and fiction, by movies.
