Why Is It Important To Die In The Sake Of Literature?

Never have i been moved in an emotional way from a Will Ferrell movie. But i'd have to say that i was pleasantly surprised about by the direction of the movie. It adds a lot of introspection to the movie and throughout the movie it has you questioning the reality of the movie. To be honest it's the closest movie in a long time to actually almost bring me to tears but sadly it was changed to a happy ending essentially flipping the scale form a tragedy to a comedy.

After watching the movie all the way through it would seem that Harold's life is dictated by the book but only in specific moments that happen that seem important to the story. Kind of like in a book or tv show there is written or seen that tell about what happens between points in time written in the story.

This is a major point in the movie because it's stabs at the point that Ms. Eiffel is always in control. But is this true freedom because even though he can do things on his own he ultimately he is stuck to the narrative of the story and is supposed to die. Or in the movies case live because Ms. Eiffel changes the
