Let's talk about this black spider with some echoes. At the end, when the professor's personality finally won the initiative, the dark side of his heart still drove him to open the envelope with the key. As the professor's personality said in his lectures, history always repeats itself. When an event happens the first time, it's a tragedy, and when it happens the second time, it's a farce. Obviously, the film ends with an incredible farce. The black spider represents Anthony's desire. The spider being trampled to death at the beginning of the film is a sign that the professor's personality is gradually occupying a place and taking the initiative. In the end, although the actor's personality was killed, the larger desire side of the professor's personality once again dominated.
There are also two contradictions in the film, one of which is that the teaching personality is decent, decent, and loyal to love. But this is the actor's character's longing for a relationship before marriage. This is the beginning of the constant devouring of persistence and loyalty derived from the desire itself, so from this point of view, this is contradictory; second, the actor's personality is unrestrained. , cunning and dangerous, but such a personality accompanied and guarded his wife during her 6-month pregnancy, which is also contradictory. The conflict of contradictions was resolved after the last car accident (of course, this car accident was obviously just a form of the professor's personality killing the actor's personality), and the wife finally retained the professor's personality, but from another perspective, the professor actually betrayed him. The love he insists on is the foreshadowing of the giant spider at the end. Desire came again, and it became bigger and more dangerous.
The old enemy is the self, but it is actually the desire itself. Just like the repetition of history, people's desires still exist. These desires will be repeated and amplified in our future lives.
