The following contains fatal spoilers, don't watch it if you haven't seen it.
I watched a lot of people discussing a lot of bugs or loopholes in the film, and I gave corresponding analysis to many people, and it turned out that they had more and more problems. In fact, this film has a certain surreal nature, because people like Cobb may not exist, and Cobb's behavior cannot be replicated in reality. So from the movie, it is enough to be able to echo the front and back, and to be able to justify it.
Combined with Bill tricking Cobb to go to his house, and Cobb tricking Bill to go to the hostess' house, I couldn't help but think that the first home might also be a designed scene. This family is actually very important. Here Cobb taught Bill how to observe the owner of the house, which paved the way for Bill to fall in love with the heroine. But how could it be so coincidental that the meticulous Cobb brought Bill to commit the crime for the first time and the owner of the house suddenly went home, and it was such a coincidence that he met him in the restaurant? Could these be tests that Cobb did to judge Bill's mental capacity? The results of the test were all seen, and Bill couldn't help but panic and fled, even though Cobb told him nothing would happen. It shows that Bill has no scheming at all, and everything is based on instinct.
Another piece of my analysis is that the boss only let Cobb kill and didn't care how he did it. You've all seen some gangster movies, and you don't need to put the blame on someone to kill the boss. So I think putting the blame on Bill is a "game" that Cobb played himself, his personal preference. Even if he doesn't succeed, there is still a way to deal with the heroine. Therefore, it is not necessary for many people to struggle with the question of where to put the hammer, because the final success of the planting itself requires some luck. In my opinion, the bigger uncertainty is that Bill may not like the heroine, and I feel that the heroine is not very good-looking...
This film is actually about telling a story. If you have to add some meaning to it, it might be "When you are staring at the abyss... balabaalabala..." I hear the words of a cocoon now, but this is 98 years.
