One of the best reveals in cinematic history.
A most preposterous conceit pulled off expertly, from Joanna’s rain-drenched entrance to the unraveling of Bobbi’s bot. Was a real shock to me on first seeing it. Still is.

Sounds like the horror genre is not for you.
Downbeat, hopeless endings have always been the norm — they’re almost expected.
Director David Cronenberg has said that one thing that attracted him most to the genre was the fact that it was the only for which it was commercially acceptable to have an unhappy ending.
Bet you don’t like “Eleanor Rigby” either — one of the bleakest pop hits to ever (nearly) top the charts. Not a shred of hope in the entire piece.
What is “seguay”?
I could also segue into Maritel infidelity and this new free tool called Google, but I won’t.
This was actually addressed in the movie, although quite subtly.
That scene where Walter is found late at night alone, drinking and crying, asking Joanna “Do you know that I love you? I really love you?” shows he is deeply conflicted yet clearly resigned to what he “must” do.
How did you learn this?
I’ve often wondered at this title’s near-nonexistent video release history, assuming it was Suzanne Ciani’s synth score that was the monkey wrench (music clearances being the most common reason).
I didn’t get it, either.
And I also found the actor playing him to be far from what I pictured.
As the quote goes, “The day players’ll kill ya.”
One off note in an otherwise great film making the preposterous believable.
Don’t exaggerate.
It only grossed $158.7 million worldwide. 😸
You’re right — it was a hit.
My bad.
Watches and furs are not necessary expenses for a heist.
Nobody who expects a return on their funds allows it to go for luxuries.
So no.
As far as I know, four:
Last House on the Left
Don’t Look in the Basement
The House That Vanished
Don’t Open the Window
I thought maybe she was the madam.
