Then I watched almost two-thirds of the way through the movie. When the female pig's feet were throwing crumbs at the door to test the old woman, I guessed the general ending. The female pig's feet began to believe in voodoo, and the old woman's goal was not the old man at all. , but the female pig's feet! Then, I read it with a very happy mood. In fact, I was looking forward to the female pig's feet or her black girlfriend to counterattack, such as pretending to change her body and stab the lawyer to death. It turned out that I thought too much. More = =. Facts have proved that the plot is more reasonable now, with black couples as the main line, interspersed with all kinds of fools who believe and lose.
Although I guessed the ending, I just watched it so smoothly and overlooked many details. After reading it, I browsed various encyclopedia film reviews, and found a lot of details, so that the whole film is fully supported. I really like this kind of film full of details and foreshadowing!
Then I want to sort it out and see how much I can sort out. Welcome to discuss and add!
1. The black patient Caroline was taking care of died. After sorting out the relics, she found a guitar key ring with the words Live fast, Die young. Later, Caroline hung the key ring with her car key and appeared again Once, it's no accident that a detail appears twice, this sentence foreshadows Caroline's end.
2. The combination of old and young that Caroline saw while driving, a black girl holding a white old lady, hinting at the plot? Rendering a desolate atmosphere? No matter what, I gave a long view, the background music was a woman's weird haha laughter, it was a rhythm that really scared my dad to death.
3. Luke showed up and said we had a phone call, so I'm a little weird here, wouldn't it be weird for a real estate attorney to contact a carer for a family? Shouldn't the family contact them themselves? This shows that Luke has a good relationship with the family, (unfortunately, the heroine didn't see it and asked him for help).
4. Luke found the female pig's feet and recommended it to the old lady. The old lady looked up and down and was not very satisfied. Luke took the old lady's shoulder, moved intimately, and persuaded her to accept the girl first.
5. She's not gonna understand the house. Within two minutes of the old lady appearing, this sentence was said twice, and the acting had already begun. The foreshadowing of the words aroused Caroline's curiosity, and she wanted to try to understand the house.
6. Video 11:14 The black girlfriend of the female pig's feet said they would make you an old man, God of Prophecy, well, they did.
7. The gas station, where there are voodoo believers, I can't think of any other details that can relate to a black couple in the car.
8. Regarding tattoos, the old lady is still testing Caroline's body in various ways. The translation I read here is a bit inaccurate. The original sentence is Not where you can see. It should be out of sight, and it turns out that Caroline has a tattoo on her lower back.
9. As soon as the old lady finished speaking, respecting the original memory of the house, the photo of the black couple fell out.
10. The Master Key is finally here! ! The old lady repeatedly mentioned the house, all kinds of hints, and took the initiative to ask Caroline to go to the attic to help her get things, hoping to arouse Caroline's curiosity to explore the house, but this silly big sister really started without thinking. her expedition.
11. You think too much about the time you have left, you don't spend it living. Hint
12. There is a question, when Caroline arrived at the door of the attic, why are the bottles in front of the door shaking? A hint of ghosts in the house?
13. Luke said to the old lady, you know you are the only woman in my life. The first time I watched it, I must have thought he was joking, but it was true. By the way, I sighed the old lady's acting skills. While acting for the female pig's feet, she also had to show her inner jealousy and dissatisfaction with Luke. It's really good.
14. After the old man climbed out of the window, the old lady replaced the window with a wall, apparently for the old man's safety, but it was actually to make Caroline believe that the old woman's goal was the old man and not her.
15. About the mirror, and whether the soul can be seen in the mirror.
(1) No mirrors are placed in the room to make Caroline gradually believe that she can see souls in mirrors, but Caroline, who did not believe in voodoo at first, did not believe that she could see ghosts in mirrors. But in the end, she fully believed that, when the old woman exchanged bodies with her, she saw the souls of those whom the old woman had exchanged bodies with. This is also a revelation of the ending, the female pig's feet can't counterattack.
(2) I think the paralyzed old man was frightened when he saw the old face that should not belong to him, because the soul exchange has been completed, maybe at the moment of the exchange, the soul that was once entrusted in the black body can indeed be seen. Yes, as Caroline saw.
(3) I think the wife and the lawyer don't believe that you can see ghosts in the mirror at all, because they are both ghosts. The reason why the wife said that was to convince Caroline. Moreover, at 42:36 in the video, you can see that the old woman is holding a mirror, and the mirror reflects the old woman's own face instead of the black woman's face.
(4) The reason for making the above three speculations is that at the end of the film, when the lawyer's skin holds Caroline's skin and looks in the mirror, it shows their physical state rather than their soul state.
16. The black couple took advantage of Caroline's kindness and her guilt for failing to take care of her father, who died of illness, to gradually drive her to study voodoo to heal the old man. From Caroline stepping into the voodoo witch shop behind the laundromat to when she performs voodoo and makes the old man start talking, it's a process of disbelief to gradually beginning to believe. It is also the turning point that Caroline stepped into the tragedy step by step.
17. Another gas station, standing in front of the small house Caroline and Luke have a conversation, revealing a detail about the film's theme. According to Caroline, whether this voodoo is true or not, the key is that someone believes it is true. The female pig's feet who said this did not realize that she was already like these people and began to believe it.
18. Then, Piggy's Knuckles started all kinds of clever investigations into voodoo, got some news from a blind mother-in-law, and began to suspect the old lady. About two-thirds of the way through the film, the female pig's feet scatter crumbs at the door of the room to test the old woman. The female pig's feet has begun to believe in voodoo.
(I think the innocence of the female pig’s feet has reached a certain level. Caroline suspects that the old lady is going to harm the old man, but she sprinkles debris in front of the door of her room to test the old woman. After entering her room, it is impossible to confirm whether the old lady wants to harm the old man, so it can be said that the female pig's feet are stupid. What is even more stupid is that Caroline knows that the old lady is a voodoo caster, and the purpose is to take The rest of the life of others. However, she didn't think about why the old woman wanted to take the rest of the life of an old man who had a stroke and didn't know how long he could live? Then she went to great lengths to add that she might only have ten and a half days of life left. Prolonged? If she was smarter, she should have realized that the old woman's target was herself and not the old man.)
19. Until she found out that Luke and the old woman were together, Caroline still thought that they were going to harm the old man and reasoned wisely. , saying that Luke helped the old lady kill him because he wanted the old lady to teach him spells, and Caroline thought that the reason why she would be killed was that she knew too much and knew that they were going to harm the old man.
20. Of course, it's not just that the female pig's feet are not smart enough, but the words and deeds of the old lady deepen Caroline's idea that the person they want to harm is the old man. What I can't start anything till I know where he is. I can't start if I can't find him. Forcing Caroline to tell where the old man was hiding, pretending to find the old man, etc. All this is to make Caroline more believe that their target is the old man. Caroline always believes that the person they want to persecute is the old man, and she knows their secret and wants to rescue the old man, so Caroline feels that her The situation is very dangerous, they will be killed by them. But in fact, they wouldn't have shot her at all.
21. Can you protect yourself by drawing a circle? So, believe it and you will lose. .
