Noooooo, I' m referring to the ending dialog.You think you wouldn't feel guilt, even over a mercy killing?
If you don' t like visual metaphors and prefer facts written with black ink on white paper then just watch the ending :
Mary : "I told you that I wanted to die James"
James : "That' s why I did it honey, I just couldn' t watch you suffer ... No, that' s not true. You also said ... you didn' t wanna die. The truth is ... I hated you. I wanted you out of the way ! I wanted my life back."
Here at 21:30
No mercy kill AT ALL, TRUE end of the self-delusion.
Femme objet. Deal with it.
Of course not, it' s just that ...I'm just pointing out that what you think you see isn't the only way it can be seen.
... THAT' s wrong and is exactly what James was deluded into. Since he knew that was just a delusion he plunged into an even more far-fetched delusion. It' s not just the way I want to look at the story, it IS the story as it is told.he was killing her as much out of pity for her suffering, and probably more so that than because she was being a bitch.
It' s what the town wants James to see. The boy really can' t take a hint, might as well unleash full force and magnify everything.But to try and put it on everything you see is simply what you want to see.
You tell me ! Maybe you feel sympathetic towards James and would like to find him excuses when even James himself doesn' t ? There are lots of ways to interpret the various designs but the most obvious one, the one that always comes to mind first and stays undeniable in the long run is the sexual one. It' s not just a "maybe". When I see two pair of legs sewn to each others I think "sex" first, not "run away from the truth of what he did" or "confusion". I' m wacky that way. Come on, honestly, who didn' t think "sex" ?why is it not so "obvious" to a lot of us.
I' m not saying your way to see things is wrong, just that it' s not the obvious, absolutely undeniable one.
