Was "Mima's House" plagiarized by "Black Swan"?

This is an excessive "tribute". Regarding this matter, Satoshi Kon had a personal conversation with Darren. He said that Darren's reply was to pay tribute to him. After this incident, Satoshi Kon said that he would no longer say "quote" when it comes to similarities with other people's works. And to call it a "tribute", this advanced statement makes Kon Satoshi really dumbfounded! Everyone has their own criteria for whether this is considered plagiarism, but Darren himself has not given any detailed explanation on this matter. And Kon Satoshi no longer has the means to have detailed discussions with Darren.

These two gorgeous and thrilling movies with the same temperament have the same story frame in structure: it is also about an actor realizing the dark side of his heart in the process of shaping his character. , the roles they played in the story highly overlapped with the real characters, and the split personality in reality led to the split personality of the stage characters. In the end, after the success of the stage role, I completely lost myself.

There are similar scenes at several key points in the story: after they made the decision to transform, they also received text threats from unknown people. After taking the first step, people around them all encountered misfortunes. Bass, known as the former Black Swan, was hospitalized in a car accident. Wei Ma's boss was bombed, and her screenwriters and photographers encountered disasters one after another. In order to go one step further, their bodies paid the price. They also successfully completed their final transformation after killing the personality that threatened them. Both movies use a lot of footage to hint at their different personalities to us.

Darren once said that the inspiration for creating Black Swan came from the influence of movies such as The Tenant, but we can see from the content presented in the film that he borrowed a lot from the movie Wei Ma. And this is not the first time he has done it. There are also fragments in his other films that are similar to Satoshi Kon's films, and some can even be said to be the same. Satoshi Kon has passed away. Black Swan has 440,000 views on Douban, while Why’s House has only 100,000 views.
