1) Which one is the master: It is still arguing whether Anthony and Adam are the masters, either they simply didn't understand it or they got themselves in. In fact, there is no distinction between master and sub-personality in this movie! (For details, see point 6 below). In reality, the protagonist’s name is Anthony, and Adam Bell is a pseudonym made up by him (hence Adam in this article is quoted).
2) Ring: This detail is actually an element throughout the film. Attentive viewers can find that the protagonist was wearing a ring when he visited Sex Club at the beginning of the film. Anthony wore a ring when he had a dispute with his wife after receiving a phone call. Helen also wore a ring when he came home to ask him questions after discovering that her husband had a split personality. Wearing a ring, and "Adam" did not wear a ring when he appeared. We can infer that whenever the male protagonist appears in the role of a university lecturer, he removes the ring. At the end of the film, Mary discovered through the hoop marks on the ring on her finger that the person who had sex with her was not her boyfriend. At the same time, when Helen discovered that the man next to her was not the previous husband, she still tried to keep him and accept him. At this time, she stretched out her ring-worn hand and held her husband's hand that was not wearing the ring. Here is a close-up shot, highlighting the protagonist’s desire for the two characters to be united on the one hand, and highlighting that Helen has discovered the truth on the other.
3) Spider: Tarantella represents desire, so there is no need to go into details here. What exactly is the male protagonist’s desire? First, the plot of the opening of the Sex Club is not a dream. Later, the janitor of Anthony's new apartment took him to his house by the elevator and said something strange: They changed the lock, and sent new keys……I think I'm not on the list……I need to go back. Obviously, Anthony recommended the Sex Club to this person before, and he has been there, but then they changed the key (that is, sent it to Anthony in a secret letter) The one). The second point is that the plot between the protagonist and Mary in the first part of the movie is not an illusion, but a memory, which happened in Anthony's previous apartment. This apartment is very rudimentary, so at the beginning of the movie, my mother said Thank you for showing me your new appartment on the phone. Mary left suddenly that night. It is very likely that this happened because Anthony's subconscious desire to get her again. So he always repeats the memories of having sex with Mary. The third point is that Anthony still went to Mary after marriage. Helen questioned twice: Are you seesing her again? It means that she knows that Anthony cheated after marriage. Mother’s words also confirm the above again: the last thing you need is to be meeting strange man in hotel rooms, you have enough trouble sticking with one woman.
4) Beard: The protagonist in the photo with his wife does not have a long beard. At the beginning, he held a half-cut photo in his hand to show that he subconsciously wanted to get rid of his wife. When the "Adam" came downstairs at Anthony's film company Volga Talent (note: marked on the lobby nameplate) according to the address on the website, the security asked him why he had a beard. Was it for another role? This fully shows that Anthony has indeed been an actor before. Daniel Saint Claire is Anthony's stage name, and his real name, Anthony Claire, is registered in that club.
5) Which are real and which are fantasy: The scene in Anthony’s old apartment is a bit like a dream scene, because the plot at the beginning of the movie is what Anthony’s other personality does, that is, he finds that the movie is exactly the same as himself man. From the time the two met and exchanged roles until the death of "Adam", it was Anthony who arranged another story in his mind. The director handled some details very well. For example, when Anthony and Adam were talking on the phone, he went early, and there was no one in the classroom, which fully showed that the protagonist was talking to another personality of his own. Another example: the last radio broadcast of the traffic accident came to an abrupt end, without mentioning the situation of the vehicle and the situation of the deceased, because in fact it must be a coincidence. The fact is that Anthony killed both in his brain (this plot design and "ID Identity" is the same), extinguished the desire for Mary.
6) In reality, is the leading actor a lecturer or an actor: If you understand this question, you will undoubtedly understand the content of the movie. Mother said to Anthony: How can you live like that? The meaning of this sentence is the key: Anthony used to be an actor (when he had no beard), and he married Helen during his career at Volga Talent or earlier. Got married (because the security said that he hadn't seen him for 6 months, and Helen's pregnancy also happened to be 6 months). Later, he left the company and went to a university as a professor under the name of Adam Bell (mother said to him, You have a respectable job, you should quit that fantasy being a third grade movie actor), and whether he had also worked in We don’t know about the university teaching (but it is very likely that he was a lecturer before, otherwise he would not easily become an associate professor, this is the correct analysis of Douyou Terote). Here we can make the following inference: Anthony is very repulsive of teaching at the university, and still has desires for Mary, so he wants to escape his wife, and he has split his personality since then (when Anthony and Helen got married, he had no mental problems. , So if his real name was Adem Bell, then his wife would know it, and he would not be called Anthony now). Anthony still calls his wife an actor (the address of that school is very unfamiliar to Helen, and if Helen knows that his job is to teach at the university, then her normal response when talking to her husband after returning home should be that it is you. Where do you usually work?! But she said that she went to meet another him). After Anthony answered the phone, he told his wife that the caller might be a stalker. The wife’s unbelieving smile was not at how her husband was talking nonsense about something she didn’t understand, but at not believing that what he said was true. of. In this way, Anthony goes to work at the university every day (he went home after sports and talked to himself about playing with a 22-year-old male student), believing that he is "Adam" , And when facing his wife, he became Anthony again-an actor. Anthony did not design another identity because he wanted to successfully deceive his wife to cheat, but was really sick, otherwise he would not listen to his mother's advice, and even denied the fact that he loves to eat blueberries.
