Those who do not want to know the ending of this movie should read no further.
OK- it threw me for a loop that is for sure. It seemed like a pretty straightforward movie..well there was the murder that seemed to come out of nowhere..so it wasn't all straightforward.Anyway, at the end, we find out Julia, the publisher's daughter is actually an English girl, not the French Julia from the house. So who was the girl at the house? That is what my friend whispered to me. The last shot shows the writer waving to the French Julia, and their arms are exactly in sync. From this small clue, I theorize that this Julia is a fantasy creation of the writer's own mind. That she is in fact the female murderer in the mystery novel she is writing. I'm not sure this explains everything- what did her mother's book have to do with it? Anyway, that's as far as I took it.
