Re: Deathproof
more: 'cause, you know
So for me a big part of the experience was the meta stuff, that relied on the rules of the genre and of the film itself.
In the first half Ferlito's pic lands face up, and it's kinda set up that she would be the survivor of the group. But no, she gets destroyed, and she turns out to be not special at all.
So then in the second half there's all that talk of Zoe being indestructible, plus the audience's knowledge of who she is, plus the possible meaning with the title of the film, that would seem to imply something. But do we go by that or by the 'rules' established earlier, which say she'll take the loss?
blah blah blah, I guess what I'm saying is that there's a lot behind the plot, a lot to think about, and though I only saw it once, I can imagine that it will get even more interesting on subsequent viewings
