Malcolm Rivers: Real World: Murderer. Only committed one murder: the Nevada Mountain Villa murder. Kill 6 people in a row, the way of death (the sketch at the beginning and the photo of the deceased): The woman cuts her throat.
Personality World: Mother Alice York, is injured in the neck (why is the mother's injury only representative, others not? Explain later).
The real world: 7-year-old father abandoned his wife and children
Personality world: Stepfather George York said: 2 years ago, his biological father ran away from home, which means that his biological father left his side when he was 7 years old.
The real world: Abandoned by his mother at the hotel at the age of 9
Personality world: Timmy York is about 9 years old and decided to be the main character of Malcolm Rivers. The killing scene in the personality world is the hotel, which also shows that Timmy York is the master of the personality world.
Real world : Because of the pressure of life, the mother began to take drugs and prostitution to reduce life pressure and mental pressure. At the beginning of the film, the mother's file shows the charges: prostitution, introducing prostitution, possession of illegal contraband, resisting arrest, violating parole, etc.
Personality world: Alice York is dressed in simplicity (representing family status), holding a gorgeous umbrella in the rain (representing transaction), the car represents the family; the storm represents the pressure of life; the tire punctured by a prostitute's shoe represents the original fragile family life. Damaged; the mother and child are close to the palm of the hand through the glass, and the child retreats, which means expecting the mother to come back; the mother retreats, which means that it is about to be abandoned. After the disaster, the mother's life and death are unknown, which means that after Malcolm was abandoned, the whereabouts of her mother are unknown.
Starting from the order of death, I understand Malcolm's multiple personalities from the big frame of my new personal understanding above: The
old hotel owner: Frozen dead, there is no other meaning, the only meaning should be that the murderer's source of evil grew up in a frozen time. The day the hotel was abandoned. Not one of Malcolm's multiple personalities.
The police officer who detained the two suspects: meaningless, no lines, no positive, should not be regarded as a member of Malcolm's multiple personalities.
No. 10: Female star Caroline Suzanne: Another projection of her mother, selfish, rude, and suggestive of abuse. It's the image after Malcolm found out that his mother had sex. Disgusted by Malcolm, hoping to get rid of this evil trait of the mother.
No. 9: Louisiana, the image of the biological father, indicating that the mother deceived the biological father, that is: it is probably not the father who ran away from home, but the mother who left with the child. Louisiana kicked the lamp and quarreled with Ginny (that is, the stepfather said: his biological father had a bad temper), indicating that he may have a habit of abusing his wife and children.
Number 8: Criminals. The first to know is the personality in the personality world, which has little intersection with other people. It should be the personality derived from Malcolm's real crime (non-homicide).
No. 7: Stepfather George York: The image should be the image of the adopted stepfather, but the character should be the state of 7-year-old Malcolm. That is: according to the manual (adults) to guide step-by-step actions, but emergencies are helpless. Soft and kind.
No. 6: Mother Alice York: After death, the image of a loving mother disintegrates.
No. 5: Ginny. Another projection of the mother image, hysterical, deceitful. After cheating death, the bodies of all people disappear, there is no cheating anymore.
No. 4: Larry Washington. Fake hotel owner. In reality, the image of a man who abducted his mother (or was taken away after being deceived by his mother).
No. 3: Rhodes Samuel. Ruthless. Personality at the time of murder.
No. 2: Driver Edward Dakota: It is the positive personality that the murderer most hopes to form. The only person who has hope in the personality, but it is shattered because of hope (the only personality who talks in the real world in the movie, other personalities are almost similar to dream language, there is no communication with people in reality), despair and No. 3 Rush. Death, this suicidal rush in the personality world obviously has a sense of hopelessness.
No. 1: Prostitute Paris Nevada: Projection of Mother Image. Cong Liang manages the orangery. The Orangery alludes to the real-world mountain lodge, surnamed Nevada, which matches the photo of Nevada when Malcolm was arrested after the Nevada Mountain Lodge homicide. Namely: In the real world, Malcolm found his biological mother in Nevada and committed the murder of 6 people in a row.
No. 0: Child Timmy York. The personality hidden in the deepest. The verse cloud: When I went upstairs, I met a man who was not there before, he is still not there today, I hope he left.
Personal interpretation: Malcolm keeps growing, but he is always tormented by his experiences before the age of 9. Even if he has derived many different personalities, he cannot escape the torture he encountered in his childhood, because it is hidden too deeply.” I want him to leave" - also said the other way around and did not leave. Explain that torture does not disappear with the passage of time. In other words, all personalities are derived from the Timmy York personality, and all personalities are subject to this personality.
The killing process of this reverse ID, I personally think that Malcolm started from Florida (abandoned starting point), the mother search experience:
Florida (abandoned starting point) --> New York (York family) --> South Carolina ( Female star) --> Louisiana (the husband of the young couple) --> .....until Nevada completes the process of finding her own mother.
Finding a mother does not mean revenge. This can be seen from the image of No. 1 prostitute in the whole movie (it still reflects the good side more), and she also explained her sex trade and stealing: making money to buy the orangery from good. It shows that Malcolm has been constantly looking for a reasonable explanation for his mother abandoning him, and is not willing to completely deny his mother.
So, what triggered the Sierra Nevada homicide? Personal inference: After Malcolm found Nevada, he found that his mother had a new family and was happy. Importantly, the mother had gone looking for him as if there had never been a child like Malcolm. Also, the mother may have passed away peacefully long ago (the mother was a drug addict from the beginning), and then killed all the new family members, just as their own family was destroyed. Due to the failure of Shi's mother, the inner resentment could not be resolved (in the personality world, Timmy York's increasingly angry expression towards prostitutes, knocking on the tools in his hand), in reality, Timmy York once again invaded and dominated the body and killed the doctor and the police.
At this point, Malcolm Rivers' journey to find his mother has been completed, and the motive for the Nevada murder has been identified. If there is a sequel to this movie, Malcolm Rivers will be even more dangerous, because the end of the film shows that his crimes no longer have a purpose or a specific goal, and he will continue to commit crimes as long as he can achieve the purpose of venting his anger and hatred.
