I believe that many people have seen the egg after the red light subtitles; I checked it on the Internet and there seems to be nothing about the egg; so I tried to interpret it myself, and I can’t say whether it is brain supplement or analysis. Bar.
————————————————————————————
The time of this easter egg is only a few seconds, there is only one shot—— a closed door Windows and curtains that swing with the wind.
If you think about it carefully, this shot actually appeared once in the film. It was when the male protagonist was startled by the sound, ran barefoot into the street, and returned home after being stabbed by glass.
At that time, the house was inexplicably messed up (later he learned that he did it); after the male lead entered the house, he just stared at the window in a daze until the TV was suddenly turned on? (Or a computer? I don't remember clearly) Interrupt.
I have never understood what this place means, and I have not found any answer after checking it online. Later, I watched the movie carefully, and I think it is as follows:
1. This window should not be opened (or there is no trace of the window being opened); the wind blows in from the vent to make the curtain swing, and most people do There is no way to escape from this window, unless it is a superpower.
2. Tom Barkley very much hopes to find a superpower like himself (this is clearly mentioned in the play).
3. As the only "superman" who ever defeated Margaret, Simon's attraction to him was too great; Tom very much hoped that Simon was the person he was looking for.
So Tom stared at the window: he suspected and hoped that "Simon" (he guessed it was Simon, he didn't see anyone at the time) escaped through the wall after destroying the room.
This can explain why he stared at this window for a long time when he returned to the messy room. In this way, this scene appears in the end credits, which can be explained.
The director just wanted to say: Although Tom Barkley accepted his superpowers, he still feels lonely deep in his heart. He still hopes to find someone of the same kind, a true superpower (maybe a person who can pass through the wall). People).
Or
how Tom Barkley wished Simon was the man he was looking for! There is still a trace of doubt deep in his heart (while looking forward to it): Does Simon really have superpowers?
I don't know which of these two interpretations is what the director meant, and I can only interpret so much information.
But one thing is certain: Red Lantern is the best suspense movie I have seen this year!
