You could say that these are mirror images. I’m sorry, I couldn’t watch the end.

The character did at least seem kind in a desperate depressed sort of way. Sure, but trying to think up a definitive answer as to what happened in the end is an utter waste of time.

If you have a lisp, it will be your defining characteristic rather than your kind heart and good companionship. Shouldn’t they have gone to get it checked out before making this decision? the whole movie was a commentary on how hard our society is on singles. Who’s going to tell Pence that flies have a bowel movement every 5 seconds? So, once she found out where he was released after being converted into an animal, she found him out and killed him. I believe you are right about The Lobster in that it was intentionally left open to interpretation, though. Very very unsettling. The world at large basically shuns singles as being broken. He will come back to her, and he will say he is now blind, not by love, but by elimination. The act of holding a knife to his eye is all the viewer needed to see to get the message.

Are you kidding Lorraine?

Here’s what happened at the end of Yorgos Lanthimos' film. This is sad, because with couples who face downsizing or career obsolescence we see one partner help the other out – one works and supports while the other goes back to get their degree… or one works while the other starts a fledgling business etc. It would be too great a obstacle or hinderance since they’re effectively on the run from everyone… Forever. In our world, this would be taken as the sign of a psycho in making. So, was that what you did David? Accidentally for sure… Actively?!? There is no fixed moral of the story here. He’s still trying to find something for them to have in common.! BUT it always starts with a sense that you see yourself reflected in another person, somehow. And part of me goes to the third option.”, Colin – “That he doesn’t do it but he goes back to her and tells her that he did. UNLESS he was willing to change his shallow, dogmatic view and accept the sacrafice he would have to make day in and day out to MAKE THE RELATIONSHIP WORK. With Colin Farrell, Rachel Weisz, Jessica Barden, Olivia Colman. In the beginning of The Lobster we get to see a shot of a woman shooting a donkey dead (who in this world can be assumed a former human) and the protagonist on a chouch, being informed that a man who wears glasses exists by a woman. That’s so common. That’s why they are relegated to the woods by society and hunt down like “animals” until they be turned into what society believes they already are: an animal.

When David arrives at the yacht where John is spending time with his newfound family, he discloses John’s lies to the woman. Yes, it’s possible she heard the sound of the water in the glass and put 2 and 2 together, but I enjoy considering that she’s been planted to test his loyalty all along, sort of a “Romeo and Juliet” type of scenario. Not just in a spat of Jealousy for David, but also in how David and the Short Sighted woman identify themselves as a couple. Now, what do you think happened?

He witnessed the steps taken by John forcing the nosebleed and outed him; and here he was with an opportunity he couldn’t actually take. It’s clear society supports their couples as much as they disdain their singles. She has a limp”, “No, it’s just a sprained ankle, I already checked, it’ll heal.” Which makes quick work of the thickness of these dating sites and our own thickness when we match our single friends up. He had a mouth full of paper towel. It is weird, fantastical, and out-of-the-box, but it is also true.”. And no answer is right or wrong. I also think this movie reveals what it FEELS like to be single or in a relationship. One also wonders, as an aside, if the particularly cruel punishment of the blinding was levied because the rebel leader and the protag’s love interest had had a “not thing” going, once upon a time. The movie also focuses on how we take for granted the human life. Is another option possible that he did not do it and went to her to tell her the truth that he can’t do it. The other possibility is that he couldn’t do it. so i think they still together. I felt like gouging out the eyes of everyone who had a part in the making of this slow, dull story. (the scene was quite QUITE), He did a runner. It looked like she could see at the end. I don’t think the ending is open at all. The Lobster’s ending leaves it up to viewers to decide what course David takes. (At the end it seems that she can see as she interacts with the waiter). I have trouble even realizing the pressure is coming from society and not from within. Grr, I tried to post a comment before but I clicked the button and it went into the cyber abyss. I just watched this movie today, after watching “The Killing of a Sacred Deer” by the same director, Yorgos Lanthimos, and also featuring Colin Farrell. Another in the many key examples of this would be the horrible woman he is with and how he wishes to use a longing for suffering to impress her. Nonsensical corkscrews in the story devastate what was already an awfully misguided, tonally hamhanded horror message movie. (played by Rachel Weisz) The evolution of David's outlook on his current situation is authentic and real, as he shows the center of his heartache in only intermittent spurts. Yes I believe in the Romeo and Juliet scenario as well. Wow, nice gal! as a reason to couple….and apparently over 50% of marriages fail. Now that should be a sequel! Therefore, she fooled David. 6) Now, when talking about the endings of pictures people always forget about the beginning. He asks her what her bloodtype is, he asks for a knife, (but NOT a butter knife) from the waiter, he goes off to the bathroom.

There is also the childishness of the views shared by the singles who stay single – that an external commonality is required for a relationship (hair, limp, lisp). Being single is no better than being an animal. They were all willing to kill each other in order to survive, even John C Reilly, they all had no loyalty and no compunction about it because they needed to live. Passion isn’t an important factor for being in a relationship. [22], Oliver Lyttelton of The Playlist awarded the film an "A" grade and described it as "an atypically rich and substantial comedy" with "an uproarious yet deadpan satire concerning societal constructs, dating mores and power structures that also manages to be a surprisingly moving, gloriously weird love story".

Also, he didn’t lie about doing it either. He showed this character flaw throughout the movie while he attempted to align with every character using the traits identified by them. So they’re caught, and he gets turned into a lobster and dropped off in the ocean just like he said he wanted. He removes one eye and gives it to her. He lives in a society that just can’t have its wits right if the singles are walking the earth. Then part of me thinks that when the camera cuts back to Rachel Weisz, I’m already in a f—ing Uber, heading down the road as fast as I can. It had already shown all it needed to without us knowing what he did. It is quite popular today to say one thing and do another. I could live with all three options, but find option 3 to be the most interesting.

There are many ways in which to get free screenplays online… all legal. A one-stop shop for all things video games. I think there are two options in my mind, one that I wish was the ending, and one that I believed was the ending while watching it. At least, that is what everyone wants. Its either 1 or 3. He eventually is called out as a fraud and the relationship dissolves… with great pomp and circumstance. Click the button below to start this article in quick view. He faked being in love while with the loners. The girl with the hair, the girl with the nose bleed, the hostile girl, etc. I also love movies that appear to be open ended, but actually are not. His first short-sightedness was him not being able to read himself. I love movies like that. Is it possible to agree that all things mentioned in the above comments happened? So she would have been left alone at the table and eventually the police would be called to detain this “single” woman and she would be taken to the hotel or animalized immediately too. I think blind girl is blinded (no pun intended) by the magnitude of this proposition, the longing to have someone to identify and commiserate with, as well a feeling of fairness that he should share in the punishment and agrees. Sounds of the ocean heard, means that they are living happily together as blind couple. Guys guys guys he cannot Uber out of there, he cant go anywhere on his own! I felt sure she would eventually “see” through the ruse but not let on, knowing she really was better off with a sighted companion. 4) Now knowing that he had intention in the face of difficulty we can now see that he actions were not of cowardice, regardless of which of the final routes he chose. There is such a strong theme of killing others for your own survival. She would view this as an act of love/ sacrifice on his behalf as if he is blind he cannot tell that she is not. But Option 3 offers a break from the mold in that David decides that he loves short sighted woman regardless of the premise of the film, which is that it’s mandatory to have something ridiculous in common. The structure of the story, the short literal sentences, the transformation into animals and the blinding of one of the characters remind me of original fairy tales and folk tales before they were sanititized and disneyfied except the original tales (except the Greek tragedies) generally had happy endings while the story of ‘Lobster’ seems to be telling the viewer that everyone is alone in the world because there is no real love or understanding available.

2. Black and white. Know I’m a little late to the game, but just saw this last night, and it hasn’t been discussed here in a while. The group leader reminds me, unfortunately, of almost every divorced person I know. Guilt-stricken after a job gone wrong, hitman Ray and his partner await orders from their ruthless boss in Bruges, Belgium, the last place in the world Ray wants to be.

Whether or not he does it is beside the point. Maybe society is getting better at not saying that to singles.
In fact even if she was blind at the time it could have been a temporary situation we’ll just like the guns unloaded.

THE DOG SCENE. 4.

3.

He has to decide about his sexuality, then and there! She clearly wanted to hook up with him and, in all honesty, she didn’t seem like a terrible woman. and she said kiwi. Did they survive the truth? Hey Cynthia… yeah, totally agree that marriage is hard. John wins the affections of a woman with constant nosebleeds by purposely smashing his nose in secret. The woman who he falls in love with, i.e., Rachel Weisz’s character, is also short-sighted. But Christians aren’t alone in this bias.
But then, it would be hard to see what you’re doing, right?

The leader who blinded the woman was emotionally driven and introduced an anomaly that otherwise should not have happened.

This system that we live in and beaten down by. He faked hot being interested in love while with the loners. A brief synopsis and the ending will be revealed for the movie - THE LOBSTER. It is not healthy to be devious to each other and pretend we can see, or that our nose bleeds spontaneously in an attempt to be accepted. Also, when she said why not blind him to the other females, I believe was a defensive mechanism… she was blind and scared and still was considered to be a loner.

That’s my take on it. So, when we think about what he did do in the end, we have to ask ourselves what his driving factor was.

Right at the end of the credits there are sounds of the Ocean. The factors for compatibility have been severely warped.
