what i found pretty interesting too was this whole over-analysing. watching conversations over and over again and look at every little detail can drive you crazy. image overthinking every little detail. this is a huge problem nowadays too. like "why didn't he text me a emoji" "why did he only use 3 words".. etc.

Indeed. And when he achieved success in getting the ultimate truth - Fi's infidelity - it didn't make him happy because then he was constantly replaying happy memories, which contrasted with his actual, miserable, empty existence. Being able to perfectly visually record his entire life ends up being a torture, causing him to be unable to move on. It's what you described but ten times more powerful and probably devastating.

But when a person you love betrays you, the memories are enough to turn you mad. After all divorce is the most common reason for suicide especially with men.

The joke on the baby sitter really reflected life as we know it today. What is a joke between friends may not be understood as a joke to other people. I see this sort of scenario happen with Stand-up comedians, celebrities, vloggers on YT, and even everyday people. Every little sentence or statement they makw can be misconstrued and taken the wrong way even when their lives are so heavily documented. Fascinating moment.

About the sex with the grain thing ... I don't think that necessarily had anything to do with the grain. I thought that was a reflection of their relationship being on the rocks. It's common facet of a loveless/long-term marriage, couples stop having sex with each other. There were other clues outside of Liam's suspicion that his wife was cheating on him. When they visited their friends early on they made a deliberate choice not to sit next to each other. Fi was on the couch while Liam chose to sit in a chair off to the side.

A couple thoughts I had: 1. Those implants are what most people right now wish they had and if given the chance would do and give up almost anything to have one. 2. Liam's behavior with his implants is already happening now with cellphones. People right now keep call records and text threads. Someone says they called- a quick call history check says otherwise. Someone says they didn't get a text- a "message read" message says otherwise. We do what Liam did and more with the technology and resources we have today.

My question is why he gouged himself opposed to just deleting the memories. Is it because there were so many, maybe half way through it'd be too painful to keep deleting? Personally, I think it's because he's trying to avoid the same pain in the future. In my opinion, what really made Liam slowly go mad was the fact that he could return to the same memory multiple times, see it as how it truly played out, and have the ability to pick up on more details he might not have seen the first time. For instance, when he walks into the party, he sees his wife laugh at jonas' jokes and sees them talking. When he looks back at the memory of this, he starts picking up the smaller things, like the way Fi looks at Jonas compared to himself and is even able to lip-read what they were saying to each other. I think it's this ability to dwell on the past memory that ultimately leads to Liam disposing of the Grain entirely. There are many things in the memories we have that could be left out because we simply didn't notice them. If we were able to look back on the exact scenario multiple times though, we'd notice those smaller, possibly impactful, details. So, to state it in a short manner, I think Liam gouged himself and didn't delete the memories of his wife in order to avoid slowly going crazy over analyzing the details in any future memories.

I’m just curious to ask this. If a scenario like this happens in reality( say it’s in the US or UK), will the father be any kind of responsible for the kid after they get divorced? It would piss anyone off to pay for a bastard kid from a cheated ex-wife. Will the police trace all the way to the real father of the kid by DNA and make him perform all kinds of actions as a legal guardian?

I think his life/relationship built on such a monstrous lie/adultery by Fi is already miserable to begin with. Interesting analysis though. Especially at the end where he wanders around the house and the scene was all gloomy and gray as opposed to it being vibrant with all his memories with Fi. Imo it just portrays how blinded he was from the beginning.

Great analysis of the distorted reflection in the mirror, though I would argue that he is seeing two reflections because he cannot get away from the life he has lived up until now. He like everyone else is unable to change who he is as a person because he has access to his entire life's history, his past is constantly with him. When you or I look into a mirror we only see our present selves looking back at us, he see's his present self and his past self, that look strikingly similar

@davis465
@davis465 6 жыл бұрын
That's a great point, I believe Brooker made him a lawyer because it is their job to investigate the finer details that many of us would look over to win a case. Black Mirror is a show not about the evils of technology alone, but rather the downfalls that come when they work synonymously with the human psyche. He is portrayed as a brilliant lawyer, which should have lead him to a fruitful career, but he instead used his brilliance as a catalyst for his demise with his wife. Everyone continued to label him as being paranoid, but he continued to persist. This persistence, a human characteristic common in good lawyers, mixed with the ability to replay every aspect of his life lead to the eventual demise of this man which left him cold and empty.

I'm surprised you didn't touch on Liam's potential blindness when he removes the grain. The grainless woman says at dinner that she's lucky she didn't go blind when her grain was snatched out. The abrupt cut to black could mean that Liam didn't only remove all his past memories but his ability to create more (visual) memories.

I disagree with your interpretation of the last part of the episode, I think the point was that deep down, Liam knew all along that his wife had been unfaithful and the kid wasn't his. The events of the episode were just to show this new technology dig up what his subconscious already knew. His life would not of been better without the events, the child would still not be his and he would be living with a women who he really despised. The technology did nothing but reveal the truth.

Gamenetreviews I tend to think that the child was not his as he no longer had a crib or toys in his house. What I got from it was that he was alone, depressed, and that he terribly missed his old life. He could only dwell on the most negative memories when she was there, and now that it's over he could only dwell on the most positive ones. By cutting out the grain maybe he could heal, but he just couldn't continue re-living every moment with a nostalgic bias and perfect recall. He's unwilling to delete the memories that are only complicating his life, so he just gets rid of the source of them entirely. I could imagine everyone who had a grain would probably do this at least once for similar reasons, and then a few would have another one installed a short time later.

The other man fathered the child and clearly she was enjoying his company that night.

Sorry, but this is not an analysis of the movie. This concentrates too much on the (impact of the) science-fictional technology (on society). The analyst has forgotten this is a movie, a psychological drama, a marvellous piece of entertainment. Of course, this is Black Mirror, so the foundation of the story is the "history" chips that are implanted on people. But it's the psychological drama that makes the movie so unforgettable. The new technology gives the jealous, suspicious husband a powerful means to detect his wife's past activities. It's the wife's act of betrayal and constant lies that lead to the sad, tragic family breakdown. One can ask the question "Would one rather be oblivious to husband/wife's lies to keep living a "happy" family? Or would one rather know the truth, whatever it is?". I myself prefer the truth.

TheLukeylala it is not necessarily that clear.

However, if she had come clean about it, things might have worked out a lot better, Liam might have accepted it and forgave her or walked out. Though I understand why she didn’t tell him, he is shown to be quite paranoid and slightly obsessive, she did not want to ruin the relationship. I am not what she did was good, but she was not the straight up bad guy, if anything everyone was.

In regards to the sex scene, one thought that came to mind upon second viewing was the idea that Fi may have been watching her past sex with Jonas as opposed to Liam. If you think about it, the scene implies they are watching they're past sex life, but this could only be true for Liam as Fi still shows feelings towards Jonas as exhibited by her flirtatious reactions to him at the dinner party. This also plays towards the notion of fantasizing about other people during sex, further perpetuating this sense of a disconnect between partners during sex

Sure he acted as a bloodhound and was violent, but what do you expect when your partner cheats on you? He wanted to know the truth. He was the victim, not her. The whole government surveillance act in the review was offtopic. The things I took out of this episode was mainly the disconnect with the presence. People mainly watch the replays of their past and ignore the presence. Because of this, the person to person relationship is awkward. The whole dinner scene was just pure cringe.

I know im really late on this but I was thinking that it probably just records your vision, instead of actually accessing the memories in your brain for two reasons. I would imagine it would be far easier to do that and also memories are nowhere near as clear and detailed as the ones in this episode. This leads me to conclude that the technology probably stops recording when your viewing an older memory. So you couldn't view yourself viewing yourself.

Dude he was cheated on and he knew it no wonder he persude the truth. It wasn't him that is at fault for the kid growing up with divorced parents it's the mother for going and cheating. What's worse is he figured it out by the way she STILL acts around her ex, meaning not only did she cheat once but it doesn't seem so far fetched she'd do it again. She had no remorse till she was getting made to watch what she had done to their family. I agree. I think the message was that what at first look is progressive and cool, it might hold repocussions. For instance in this situation it brings trust issues where It's okay to have your memory checked by almost anyone because there is no need what so ever to trust people cause it can all be proven in a second so why wouldn't they

I'm surprised you didnt mention the very last bit right at the end, when the screen suddenly flashes black after Liam gouges himself. The woman who was gouged earlier in the episode had mentioned how lucky she was that she hadn't lost her sight after the incident. It seems when Liam removed his Grain he wasnt so lucky. I think he was looking for a fresh start, tired of being weighed down by his memories that he could not forget. In a last desperate attempt to rid himself of his paranoid obsession with this device, he rendered himself blind; accidentally destroying any chance he had of truly starting over.

The first smartphone was only released about 15 years ago, and I only remember them becoming commonplace around 6 years ago. But now I am seen as extremely weird for not having one. People often look at me funny when I pull out my basic phone, I have even had members of my own family challenge me on my resistance to get a smartphone. The way some people go off at me you would think I'm a vegan in a steak restaurant. Even my 7 year old niece has a smartphone.

The reason he removes the chip is obvious. Remember what its like breaking up or those total destructive feelings in the aftermath of a relationship? you probably can't feel the actual emotion you did but rather a shadow of it. So why do these powerful emotions ever leave, one thing only ....time. Time simply dulls and causes memories to fade. But in this episode Liam is replying ever single thing/moment that was great in his relationship as if it was brand new, he is totally trapped in his memories emotionally and mentally. Without the implant, he will slowly begin to move on with his life. Also people taking one side of either Liam or his wife clearly are projecting themselves and their experiences on to the episode. If you watch it on its own, both are guilty of fucking up the relationship, no innocent parties. She is deceptive, weak and cheats on him. While he is controlling, aggressive and insecure, which pushes her away.

The male slut Jonas got up to feel her scar, she was with Jonas when Liam arrives drunk in the morning.

It's considered torture to most people being in situations like these and most would remove the chip to spare themselves.

This one seems to point out how modern surveillance is a double-end sword, on one end he was able to catch his wife cheating, on the other end, his life wasn't objectively happy investigating and knowing every minuet detail that lead up to the discovery, or even the discovery itself. One thing I have to give this particular episode is how you actually felt the invasiveness of having your daily activities recorded at every moment. Especially when the friends asked to see the interview. That seems very personal, and I could sort of feel myself cringing. I also wondered likewise how privacy could be protected especially in sexual relationships if someone can (for instance) a private photo of your body, and upload it to a TV screen projection.

Orwell always said that the issue with a totalitarian society built around total surveillance in real life is logistics; you would need half of the population to constantly watch the other half and vice versa. However, with the domination of social networking in our lives, the show I believe is saying that, to an extent, we have solved that logistical issue; by people willingly surveying/surveilling themselves by constantly telling people what they are doing and where they are via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc. The comedian Louis CK touched on this in a segment of 'The Opie and Anthony Show' where he was mocking the hypocrisy of people demanding privacy, whilst documenting every aspect of their lives: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIOUm4erfNJqpc0m34s . Also, this video reminded me of a really good quote by Edward Snowden: "Arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say," (I think it was used in a recent episode of Mr Robot too). Another thing is that I quite enjoy putting together hypothetical double feature movies that, although different, share a similar themes told by two different perspectives (Yes, I'm a film nerd). For example, Edgar Wright mentioned once that he wanted there to be a double feature of his film 'The World's End' and the James Ponsoldt film 'The Spectacular Now'; both films exploring the idea of trying desperately to retain one period of their life with the inability to "move on" - except one is from the perspective of a young Miles Teller, and the other is told from the perspective of the middle-aged Simon Pegg. One that I came up with is doing a double feature of the 1996 film 'Matilda' and then follow that up with showing the 1976 version of 'Carrie' (Both have telekinetic powers with emotion....with different results). In this sense, I weirdly link this episode to the Woody Allen film 'Midnight in Paris'; one utterly romanticises nostalgia and looking into the past - whereas this episode turns nostalgia and looking into the past a dark and oppressive obsession. Whilst some criticisms of modern technology and trends are completely valid, as Bertrand Russell once said: "In all affairs it's a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted.”. In other words, whenever I've settled on an opinion, I find it useful to immediately attempt to contradict myself - and learn the opposing arguments against your position well enough that you could theoretically argue for their position if push came to shove (A mentality I learned from the late, great Christopher Hitchens). So whenever I hear myself criticising modern technology and trends, I tell myself to remember the witty Douglas Adams quote: “I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies: 1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. 2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. 3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.” Sorry for the essay.

I know that it isn't told explicity, but IMO it's heavily implied that she didn't use a condom. That is why he's alone at the end. She left, because he found out that Jonas didn't use a condom. So, it's very likely that it's not even Liam's child.

@Great Heathen Army ...You actually bring up a great point (tangentially). The episode, I think, would have been better if she HADN'T cheated, and he only suspected it. I felt like the message would have had more punch if it was the access to all those memories was driving Liam insane. I think about myself -- I always look back on events, think, "Ah, I made a fool of myself, ah I'm such a screw up, etc." that sometimes I feel just like Liam in the episode -- obsessing over the past so much that it makes me a depressed mess. The fact that the wife WAS a cheating, lying whore undermines the message -- that obsessing over ourselves like we do on social media (taking selfies, pictures of our food, our babies, our pointless material crap) doesn't FULFUIL us like we assume it wil -- it makes us feel more empty inside. But all that message is lost because the wife actually WAS cheating, and Jonas actually IS a cretin.....

While i agree with Liam's social awkwardness, I don't think he was blaming his wife for it. He clearly is great at reading people and picked up on the sexual tension between his wife and the other guy right away. Then to make it worse, the wife kept trickle truthing and gaslighting him the entire time. It literally took him shoving the truth in her facr to even admit that anything happened and even then she continued to lie. A marriage can't come back from that. I find it weird that you out the breakdown of the marriage sqaurely on his shoulders while letting her off scot free.

I personally think the episode was great until... SPOILERS It is found that his wife WAS cheating on him with that one guy (can't remember the name). I really liked it's exploral of how paranoid these devices could make us and you could constantly read into everything and make conclusions you wouldn't be able to otherwise. If she instead hadn't been cheating but he had instead driven the wife and child away BECAUSE of the chip and his memories making him paranoid (or even if he saw something like his wife's old relationship with the guy and compared it to theirs) then that would've been much better than the standard "Oh, she WAS cheating" route it went on. Just my opinion at least, still an enjoyable episode (just not one of my favourites like it is with others)

I saw it as him regretting he ever found out. He sees all this memories where Fi is looking at him lovingly, just the way he accused her of not doing. Tons of memories of them as a happy family, and now it's all gone. I'm not trying to make light of Fi's cheating or says it was ok in any way, I just felt like at that moment he blamed his own obsessing over memories (and therefore, blamed the grain) for the ending of the good thing they once had together.

IPast the ruminations on a "Big Brother" culture, I saw this episode as an example of a man using the existing technology to root out his cheating wife's lies. I felt more bad for him than anyone. Granted, he did go too for, but I see his assaulting his wife's lover and forcing him to remove the memories of their sexual dalliances as a futuristic version of a man going to his wife's lover today and forcing him to delete/burn any nude or sexual videos or pictures of her. Then in the process, Liam discovers that his irrational upset at an old 2-week fling is actually a valid upset over a sexual relationship that was not only much longer than his wife previously told him but also continued into their marriage (possibly to include parentage of a child.) It turns out Liam's feelings weren't wrong. He soon finds that his worry is validated by each one of his wife's lies about her lover that is validated by evidence uncovered by his, her and her lover's memory recordings. The scene with Liam watching the sexual encounter that may have resulted in his son is a nightmare version of a man asking his cheating wife to tell him everything that happened when she was cheating on him. And all his wife can do is wallow in discovered and guilty misery, barely able to look at the man she eviscerated.

No, we are shown the POV of both individuals. In her memory, she is looking at the man she's having sex with, not at herself. Like, it's kinda laughable I have to point this out.

Quizerno actually yes! so just like, for example, they say that you cant/arent allowed to board a flight/ drink alcohol at least 48 hrs after scuba diving, its the same here. The rules at the airport might be that you cant delete any memory for at least the duration you've been spending in this city.

This one really reflected me and my exes relationship...Social media and the fact you're able too see past conversations and pictures from years ago (Facebook im looking at you). Kind of disturbing to me because that led to alot of problems between us, including me obsessively going back months and months trying to find information or possible cheating. I became obsessed looking into every message every comment..I convinced myself I would find something.. Eventually I did, it was a rabbit hole of madness :( Social media and technology killed relationships.

Im familiar with George Orwell's 1984, but I would still prefer the chip, in a scene in the movie he says "it's like I've had a rotten tooth for years and im finally digging in and removing the rotten shit", personally it's better to know that you have a rotten tooth and take care of it rather than let the rotten tooth stay and ruin your mouth over time. Same thing here, I would rather learn that I have a cheating whore of a wife and divorce her and look for a proper woman that I can spend my life with rather than taking care of a family that doesn't belong to me and be happy ignorantly.

8:20 It's not at all about politics. You can use any movie to be inspired by it, but this episode barely explores anything political, it was about human relationships. 9:30 He's not paranoid at all. All his fears and doubts were justified in the end, even if it didn't look like it at first.

This guy was great at noticing subtle body language and gestures, but goddamn does he obsess over it, if you look closely, near the end of the episode, it shows on the clips of Fi that he had replayed it SIX HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVES TIMES. Holy fuck

Again it touches on a moraly gray subject. On the one hand his wife wasn't faithful and had a kid possibly with another man. On the other he just lost his whole life basically. And it hurts even more is when he looks back at the way his wife looked at him it's like "holy s*** she did look at me like that" this is more depressing than " arkangel"

The technology in these shows is so advanced, so ahead of our time, and so commercially available to all consumers, and elegantly designed in this series. Throughout this episode, however, I couldn't help but notice that the cars stand in contrast to the social technology. They're all antique-like, not even resembling 21st century automobiles. What do you think? As a side-note, I do live in America so I understand there may be some differences between automobile trends, but this seems uncanny.

Well, think of it this way. Technological advancements these days are rarely celebrated, and often come in the form of brands, say the new iphone. This shift in focus towards other technology probably prevented the market from being able to advance technology for cars.

I honestly hate this episode because it actually made me paranoid about my own relationship. Well not exactly, to a point I was like Liam, analyzing everything she said to a fault, but because I was horribly stressed when I watched it the episode's outcome made me unable to sleep until 6 am. I know it's kinda weird to judge it based on that, but it kinda broke me when I watched it. It also doesn't help that I have surveillance and privacy paranoia.
