——Secondly, I want to say that this film is not just about split personality, we can’t just see it from the display of the image, that is, Michelle and Earl seem to be polar, but they are actually unified, because they are The paradox in the depths of human nature is the union within the body.
——If Earl kills because of addiction, then Michelle's liking to eat, zuo-ai, and killing are the subconscious driving force; why do voyeur + photography lovers like to kill? Thrill, conquer, cool! Women police officers are rich and powerful, why are they obsessed with chasing fingerprint serial killers? Because she wants to prove to her father through her own efforts that although she is not a boy, she can be as strong as a boy! what are these? These are desires. Driven by desire, people do what most satisfies their inner world, be a killer, or bring criminals to justice.
——The movie also shows the scene of quitting addiction. What is addiction? Addiction is a desire, and the realization of desire leads to addiction, so it needs to be controlled. Earl is constantly fighting with himself, but desire is a powerful beast, always breaking free, especially after experiencing the constant stimulation of reality. .
——I was expecting the policewoman and Earl to fight, but the film ends just right, the open ending just predicts countless possibilities, even the killer's daughter may do something to her dear father!
