but you never know with these creative director/author types! While it might seem far-fetched, when you analyze the theory and the evidence, it holds water (at least enough for me to keep pondering it). The fact that many literary figures are Messianic does not, by itself, nullify this analysis, IMHO. The other thing that I'm aware of is that authors and directors come up with very symbolic and subtle themes that often are never "figured out" by the public. So I'm not going to give up on this one yet... Of course, I might just be one voice "crying in the wilderness"! :-)
All my best,
Tom

there is no wrong interpretation - tunenut 17:56:53 10/31/05 (0)
with art and film is a medium that, at its best, allows for very personal interpretation of visual symbolism. And I think Cronenberg is a gifted filmaker with a body of work that I respect. Now, I would say that this is not one of his best movies, but even so, it does have the depth to allow individuals to interpret it in their own ways. So I'm not saying there is a right or wrong here.
