He-Harold Crick (will Farrell Will Ferrell) is an IRS auditor who leads a regular and monotonous life every day, but the voice of a narrator breaks it all-he finds that someone's words are often heard in his ear, that she can perceive the routine of her daily life, and that she can even predict his death in the near future. She-Karen Eiffel (Emma Thompson Emma Thompson) is a writer who is pessimistic and decadent, never lets her protagonist escape the fate of death, and is worrying about how to arrange for the protagonist to die a great death. She does not know that the hero in writing coincides with him in real life, and the plot of the hero's death will come true on him one by one. However, when he learned that his life was designed by others, but could die to gain the value of life, he no longer panicked and resisted, but accepted it calmly. His choice made the writer begin a new epiphany, and the story took a U-turn.
