After watching the film reviews of the enemy, watching the behind-the-scenes highlights of extras, I finally understand.

Two people are actually one person. Anthony is real. Adam was formed by Anthony's split personality. Old photos and evidence such as blueberries can all explain.
Anthony was an actor at first, and his salary was not high. His wife became pregnant to make a living, but later switched to teaching. This teaching time was not only 6 months. From checking the name of Adam on the Internet, I also know that he is just an associate professor. If he has been It is in teaching that the position should be higher. The doorman of the actor company said that he hadn't seen him in 6 months, and his mother said he had a decent job now. But obviously his wife didn't know that he changed his job because she didn't know the address of the school. She found the school only after she checked the pseudonym Adam Anthony had given herself on the Internet.
Because his wife was pregnant and could not have sex, Anthony went to the underground sex club in pursuit of excitement. It was a key to open the iron door of the underground club. There, Anthony also met the security guard downstairs. Pay attention to the security's face appeared in a group of people. .
Anthony’s desires were not satisfied yet, so Anthony went to find a mistress and rented an apartment outside, but apparently this apartment was very empty and there was nothing in it, because it was just a temporary love nest for mistress. After finding a mistress, Anthony did not go underground for the time being. Club, temporarily mail the key to the original actor company. At home, it is Anthony's own personality, adventurous and impulsive, and the love nest outside is the personality of Adam split out, repeating sluggishness and dullness.
The boring and repetitive work at school made Anthony feel very boring. He also wanted to return to Anthony's personality in the apartment outside. This made Xiaosan sometimes feel strange, like someone else (the actor in the small three said by himself in the tidbits). Xiao San's disgust and refusal to make love made Anthony's personality more active. He remembered the key placed in the actor's company. This was what Anthony wanted to do in his subconscious mind. As Adam's personality, he did not know that the key was in the company.
Anthony's wife found the pseudonym Adam on the Internet and went to the school. She found another personality of Anthony and was frustrated. She asked Anthony what happened, Anthony said he didn't know, and his wife said I think you know. If his wife doesn't know this is a dual personality, she won't say I think you know what happened.
The next two personalities fight with each other, which happened in a very narrow corridor, a very small room, there's no escape (the director said in the trailer).
After the conflict between the two personalities, Anthony tried to use Adam's honest personality to get along with his wife. Jake Gyllenhaal said in the tidbits that the wonderful part he thought was when his wife was lying in Adam’s arms, he think she think he is anthony, and she says'did you have a good day at school'. And the wife’s actor is in the tidbits Say she wants her husband to be a man that he isn't and one day he walks in the door and he's the man that she wants him to be, and it doesn't matter about anything else because the man she wants him to be is in front of her now. This can also confirm what was said earlier that her wife has discovered that this is Anthony's second personality, and it is the personality she wants him to have.
As Anthony tried to use Adam’s personality to get along with his wife, the original Anthony personality disappeared with the junior. The car accident here should be just a metaphor. Of course, real or metaphor is the theme that this film runs through. Everyone has everybody’s interpretation.
In the end, I thought that Anthony had become Adam’s personality and got along well with his wife. The desire in my heart came again. The original Adam’s personality took out the key to the underground club and prepared to sink again. The metaphorical feminine, danger, sex of the black spider Turn it on again. Just like the film originally said in class there is a pattern that repeats itself throughout history. Everything is a new cycle.

Enemy quotes

  • Anthony: Control, it's all about control. Every dictatorship has one obsession and that's it. In ancient Rome they gave the people bread and circuses. They kept population busy with entertainment but other dictatorships used other strategies to control ideas, the knowledge... how do they do that? Lower education, they limit culture, censor information, they censor any means of individual expression and is important to remember this, that this is a pattern, that repeats itself through out history.

  • Teacher at School: Where There's a Will There's a Way.
