Northern America has a lot of blockbusters in the race for the box office. Thor: Love and Thunder’, ‘Minions: The Rise of Gru’ and other big Hollywood IPs are dominating. There are also dark horses like ‘Nope’ that came out of nowhere and broke Northern America’s weekly box office record.
The ‘Fall’ I share with you today has a score of 7.4, and more than 85% of the thrillers are much higher than those of the same genre released in the same period.
‘Orphan: First Kill’ 5.5 out of 5, ‘Nope’ 7.0 out of 5. There is no doubt that ‘Fall’ the movie, in this year, is very hopeful to take the crown of the best thriller of the year.
Today, I will analyze with you, the movie ‘Fall’ in 5 thought-provoking, thought-provoking details. (The following contains personal interpretations, so please watch with caution)
It turns out that in these details, buried in one of the biggest reversals of the film, waiting for the audience to discover.
Loose bolts
At the beginning of the movie, Becky and Hunter climbed to the top of the tower. When Becky was taking pictures while putting on a show, she accidentally dropped the loose bolt. This also led to the back of her almost fell, but fortunately the body tied the rope.
Here is a doubt, is the loose bolt. If it is because this signal tower is in disrepair, then why is the signal light on top of the tower is still on?
In fact, this kind of TV tower, when climbing this tower, is Hunter took the initiative to invite Becky to go.
But Becky was very reluctant at the time, so she didn’t decide to go out that day. This gave Becky enough time to make plans.
Has the message of conquering the 600-meter TV tower been instilled in Hunter before? Will he sneak to get the bolts off the tower while Hunter is sleeping?
Becky had discovered her best friend Hunter’s affair with her boyfriend months earlier, and she had every reason and motive to commit a covert murder.
Following this logic, we continue to reason down the line.
Becky will pretend to wallow in the pain of losing her boyfriend and let Hunter move up first. The purpose of this is obvious, so that she can test the loose bolts and will not take Hunter out.
But unfortunately, the bolts were fine when Hunter went up there, and they only started to come loose when she started the show.
Of course, this plan was not supposed to be a sacrificial plan where you die or I die. The boyfriend who was cheated on by his best friend, even if he died, probably would have held the idea of dying together.
The distance is just not long enough for the rope
If the first point is not clear enough, then let’s look at the second point. When they both climbed to the top of the tower, the rope down was more than 50 meters long.
But this rope from the top of the tower to the horn, just not long enough, short of half a body position. This led to an accident when Hunter went down from the top of the tower to the horn at the back.
She couldn’t reach the rope, which was only long enough to hang the book bag on. This is very strange. If you know how to climb a 600-meter tower, why don’t you have more spare rope?
So most likely, the rope was carefully measured and prepared by Becky.
The goal is to lure Hunter down to the horn, and then she can’t get up. As the bolt at the horn loosens, Hunter is bound to fall before she does.
Suspended school bag
When Hunter hung her school bag on the rope, she grabbed the rope with a desperate jump herself. This is Becky did not expect, the audience also for its sweat.
But Becky’s next operation is clearly not quite in line with common sense.
First, she was the one who started to accidentally drop her book bag onto the horn. Then, she lured Hunter down to the horn again. Now, she was pulling Hunter up to the top of the tower when the rope came loose by accident.
This release, Becky is fine, but Hunter fell heavily to the horn.
Lost shoes
It was at this moment that Becky encountered a major twist.
Previously, my boyfriend fell off the mountain because he didn’t grab the rope. This time her best friend also did not grab the rope. So she might think, maybe Hunter has fallen to his death, right?
Then according to the movie plot, she constructed a Hunter’s voice to accompany herself in her own brain.
All of this didn’t sink in until she remembered the missing shoe.
So, is it possible that the shoe reversal was not the point at that time? She wasn’t unconscious and schizophrenic at the time?
Rather, a set of falsehoods to the police after Hunter fell on the horn?
So, it should be clear why. Becky was able to put the truth about Hunter falling on the horn and bleeding to death. Cover up the illusion that Hunter fell to his death on the horn.
Is it still a living ghost?
If my best friend hadn’t cheated on me with her boyfriend, I might still believe that. But the best friend has been with her boyfriend for months, and that’s not letting go yet. The only reason is that Becky wants revenge and revenge.
Covert Murder
The focus of the whole film should be at the beginning of the film Becky’s words.
Becky suggested that Hunter put the phone in her own shoe instead of using Becky’s own shoe. Then Hunter took off one of his own shoes and threw it on the ground.
Note that the cell phone didn’t work here, the signal didn’t come out and wasn’t noticed. It just caused Hunter to lose a shoe.
Then we return to the episode above where she accidentally loosens the rope and falls to Hunter’s death.
In fact, the most straightforward, even if she used schizophrenic talk to deliberately cover up the truth. She can’t erase the fact that she dropped Hunter to death with a loose rope. Because that’s what did happen to them at the time.
Just unlike the reversal of the plot in the second half of the movie, perhaps from the beginning of that pair of shoes. We have fallen into the trap of the illusion created by Becky.
What really happened to her and Hunter at that time, is it possible that Becky was very sober at that time?
Because she has already succeeded in revenge on her boyfriend with her own hands, at this time, she killed Hunter, no internal waves.
Watching Hunter ask for help from the horn below, she didn’t care. She watches coldly as Hunter is gnawed on by Vulture, unconcerned.
Just like the middle-aged man who saw the shoes and did not help them, indifferent and heartless. Just like the camping couple who stole the car and did not choose to help them call the police, greedy and cruel.
The director used two distress scenes to show his own understanding and irony of human nature. So most likely, the director made this movie, and Becky’s performance at the end is her own set of sayings.
The director wanted to use this technique to conceal the biggest suspicion of the whole film, and the biggest reversal of the whole film. So, Becky deceived the police, the audience, and Hunter.
If the above logic holds true, then Becky is undoubtedly a true invisible killer. She used rock climbing as a reason to create a series of accidental phenomena to murder her boyfriend and best friend.
It is also logical for Becky to use her best friend Hunter’s body as a buffer later. Stuffed the phone in her body and transmitted out the signal. Finally got rescued.
