The landlord believes that this is a circular story that a male protagonist has compiled his own murder memories.
At the beginning, the male protagonist narrates, these people have already reasoned, omitted. One of them is a close-up shot of the heroine eating a red apple. The United States is a religious country. What does an apple represent in the Bible? Original sin. In the Bible, Eve is also naked (of course, the heroine covered the quilt), and then she has sins after eating apples. So what does the original sin here represent? Let's look down.
Before departure, the male protagonist went to buy coffee, and there was a missing person posted on the cash register. At first, the owner thought it was the missing notification for the female protagonist. Later, after looking closely, the girl had short hair, but she had pale blond hair. Could it be the girl the male protagonist met at the age of 16? Let's just assume she is. In addition to acknowledging what the male protagonist said in the morning, her appearance also implied that she was the reason why the male protagonist's murderous personality appeared.
The story is intertwined with imaginary and real scenes. How to distinguish it? Some say it's lightning, but I think it's more accurate to be the stars. The appearance of lightning also has its effect, which will be explained below. The real scene is cloudy, but the imaginary is a very bright starry sky.
The first time the starry sky appeared (indicating the beginning of the imagination) was when the male protagonist got lost in the car and stopped to look at the map. The heroine once asked him:
"u're not one of those never-make-the-wrong-turn kind of guys, are u?"
This sentence means "You're not the kind of person who never gets lost, right? ?", the strange thing is that the heroine used the word "turn", and the hero replied:
"I never turned"
A pun, English-speaking people know, it means "I never get lost" or it could be an expression for "I've never done anything wrong" or "I've never changed". It can be seen that the movie has already implied that the male protagonist has a second personality, and the kind personality is denying the wrong things he has done at this time.
Then came the bloody face. In the car, Bloodface says "one way out" and "I don't want to hurt you". The great gods here have already reasoned, and the next plot is actually that the male protagonist killed the female protagonist. Since the real scenes and imaginations in this clip are intertwined very frequently, the distinction between them cannot be seen in the sky.
Those two words that the bloody face said in the car were very important. There is a lot of content here, which is the key to the story. Let's start with the discord in the movie. After the male protagonist killed the bloody face, he stood up with a stone. At this time, the male protagonist's body was clean and there was no blood at all. This picture is reality. The camera turns to the heroine, standing next to the car clutching the door. At this time (at 00:35:34 of the movie) the male protagonist said: "He attacked me", while the female protagonist asked: "only way out (the only way out), what does this sentence mean?". Later, the male protagonist grabbed the female protagonist's arm with his blood-stained hand, and the female protagonist had blood on her arm. Before 00:37:49, the male protagonist and the female protagonist were talking, and the female protagonist moved to the rear of the car, and at 00:37:49, the female protagonist stood at the door again, with no blood on her arm, and said in horror. : "This is not true, this is not true", it can be seen that this is reality, and at this time the male protagonist has already started to kill the female protagonist. After that, the dialogue and interaction with the female protagonist are all imaginary. The heroine's body was dug up from the back and there was no trace of blood. It could be seen that the heroine should have been strangled to death.
Are the judges a little confused? What is the owner talking about? We organize the real pictures as follows:
The male protagonist drives, and the killer's personality gradually emerges, and he begins to have murderous intentions. The kind personality also began to emerge (the car with blood on the face), drove the car to the wasteland, the male protagonist got off the car, the two personalities in the body fought each other, and the kind personality said the words "One way out (only one way out)" (at this time. The heroine asks what the phrase "only way out" means), the kind personality realizes that the killer personality needs to be removed to prevent bad things from happening and says "I don't want to hurt you" (the bloody face said in the car, and to strangle the hero). In the end, the kindness failed. The killer occupied the body and approached the heroine. The heroine leaned on the car in great fear and shouted, "This is not true, this is not true." The killer killed the heroine, and the next thing is conjecture.
The great gods in the middle have already analyzed it, and the landlord will not repeat it. Just to say one thing, when the female protagonist and the male protagonist buried the body together, the female protagonist asked her to surrender, using the words "turn uself in" (meaning to surrender), and also used the word "turn", which shows that the whole movie is The male protagonist made it up by himself. This is subconsciously the male protagonist hopes that he can turn himself in and become a kind person, but the killing of the female protagonist really happened, which will be discussed below.
There is lightning when the hero meets the police car. A great god once said that lightning is the dividing line between reality and imagination. I don’t think it’s specific enough (please forgive me), because there are too many intersections between reality and imagination, so we can’t always be lightning, right? ! Therefore, the starry sky can better reflect reality and imagination. So what does lightning do? The landlord thinks it is the first and last hint of whether the male protagonist can be a killer. It can be understood that the first lightning indicates that the male protagonist's killer personality begins to emerge; the second lightning indicates that the male protagonist can no longer be a killer.
That is to say, after the second lightning, the male protagonist was arrested. Maybe there was a car accident, maybe he collided with a police car while being chased by a police car, or maybe there was an accident, in short, the male protagonist was arrested. The evidence is that the police dug up the heroine behind, and the heroine was wearing the original white dress and was covered with plastic sheeting! ! This picture is real, that is to say, it is indeed the police who discovered the body of the female protagonist, and the male protagonist saw the process, which can only be seen when the male protagonist is arrested! !
Let's turn our thinking forward a little and come to the scene where the male protagonist rides in a police car. The male protagonist sits in the position of the prisoner, indicating that the male protagonist regards himself as a prisoner subconsciously. The policeman in the car once said to him: "I don't believe in love at first sight... That's why I never got married... I've seen many things, and it's impossible to confess to a priest..." One Could the killer who used flash marriage as bait take his ID card and really go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the formalities? This sentence is what the killer personality says to the kind personality!
The male protagonist found in the police car that the rest area was different from before. When he was wondering, the police said, "This is the rest area, at least thirty years ago." Pay attention to the police's voice and the close-up of the picture! ! This is not the voice of the police at all! This is the killer! ! So in this imaginary, the killer is also a part of the police, so that the male protagonist can clearly understand the reality! I don't think anyone's name will be called Dick (meaning asshole), which is given by the male protagonist out of guilt. The policeman was called by the walkie-talkie in the police car - Thomason, Thomason is the male protagonist real name!
The biggest pit in the film is that after killing people in the past 30 years, the male protagonist parked the car in the rest area and parked the bodies in one place. The killer killed so many people, but he was coaxed by tens of thousands of flies even if he was not found. . So the rest area is the space in the male protagonist's mind to store murders. Every time a person is killed, a car will be left behind, and there will be one more car in the desert rest area.
The car that the male protagonist was chased by the police and drove was a light blue Mustang in the 1960s (not the car that the male protagonist drove himself). This kind of car is very famous in the United States. Perhaps it was the bait of the previous male protagonist to lure the victim. It can be guessed that the earliest crime committed by the male protagonist was in the 1960s. The story of the movie that the male protagonist imagined happened in the 1990s. This also explains the clothes of the movie characters and why the male protagonist drove such an old car when he was on his honeymoon. .
In the end, the policeman did not catch up with the male protagonist, and the policeman's expression was regretful. At first, the audience must have thought that the police did not catch the suspect and had normal emotions. Is it possible that the killer once again lost the opportunity to let the good personality recognize the reality? Regret?
When the subtitles were played at the end of the movie, the first lines and voices appeared again. This was the director's suggestion to the audience that the cycle did not start from the bloody face, but from the very beginning! ! That is, all of these are the combination of the male protagonist's memories and fantasies!
The whole film is that the male protagonist is mixed with realistic imagination, so the male protagonist has killed so many people, why use the female protagonist as the object of imagination? Why let her eat the fruit of the original sin:
1. The heroine and the first victim the killer met at the age of 16 look alike, with blonde hair and fair skin. The girl he met at the age of 16 was the trigger for the first appearance of the killer personality. Accomplishing the character of a killer is the original sin!
2. The female protagonist is the last victim of the killer, the female protagonist's body was found and the male protagonist was arrested! ! This original sin is not the heroine, but the killer's sin!
So where is the male lead now? Maybe a mental hospital, maybe a prison cell, no one knows. What can happen is the constant cycle of the story in the male protagonist's mind.
