matches
Throughout the film, matches are shown, not shown, talked about, used, etc. I kept waiting for them to play an important role before the end of the movie. The last match is that with which his mother lights a candle. She then drops the match and leaves. At that point I thought she had inadvertently set the house on fire. But nothing happens. There is nothing else about matches. Are we supposed to think that they are a "match"? Did anyone else wonder about this? Or have an answer to why there are so many match references?
