Ghost apparition?? (spoilers)


When Caroline is cleaning Barry's shirt, she sees Thurston's friend who died in the car accident. Why? I don't think he was a ghost, but some sort of foreshadow or symbolism. I just can't figure out why.


Kind of strange film. Loved the Sonic Youth references, and the symbolisms (specially the smoke, reminded me of the novel 'White Noise'). I did find the acting bad... And I would suggest to take the whole voice-over narration off, it was very annoying most of the times.

I also did not understand this, given she barely knew the guy. It might have made sense if he had appeared to Thurston.

Maybe he was supposed to be a sign/reminder that Thurston was the one for her?
