There’s no evidence that David wasn’t in fact real but so many comments are saying that. I think he was real, a sadistic abuser who really tracked her down and came back to torment her, and really killed the baby and had her believe he ate it as yet another way to control her. And she really lost her mind by the end. The last scene was very clearly a dream sequence. She really disemboweled him after losing her mind and she obviously imagined finding the baby.

[@beautybyalainas]

I totally agree! At first I thought he was a figment of her imagination because he kept showing up in the same clothes each time. But then his outfits changed and he showed up to her office. I mean they even called to let her know he was there so SOMEBODY had to be there.

[@Mehki227]

It wasn't a dream. She was severely injured. She was dying.

[@spiritconsumer]

The man in the office scene was the boyfriend, it literally pans to him during that scene very quickly. Because of that, as i was watching it i realized David doesn't exist. I think he existed back then and maybe she killed him ...but not in the present tense.

[@Ghost666Mafia]

It’s obviously a dream bc her daughter isn’t wearing her jacket.

[@J.J.Jameson_of_Daily_Bugle]

There are few scenes which suggest David wasn't real and it was all in her head, but David in the past was probably real guy.

[@Shyknit]

Whether he's real or in her imagination someone just casually saying they've eaten up a baby and it's alive in their stomach is so creepy and disengaging...

[@notimportant3686]

he was real in at least the first interaction (and probably at least several more).... remember how her daughter (who is not psycho) had a tooth planted in her purse?... when she met david in the park first time he grinned to show her the missing tooth... he had to be real... because her daughter had a REAL tooth

[@KeithElliott-zd8cx]

Honestly i assume he was real but not necessarily his actual interactions with her are portrayed. She's an unreliable narrator. On the flipside, if you so throughly mindfucked someone, the trigger doesn't really matter.

[@gjh9299]

Abby sticking someone's old tooth in her mouth is nasty, but also proof he exists because he put it in her wallet and show where it's missing from

[@tomwells8093]

David wasn't real, it was all just her trauma bringing him up again because her daughter is growing up and going to leave her for college. Look at the park scene when she first talks to him. When viewed from behind the man is wearing a white top, when David viewed from the front is wearing an orange one. Coffee shop is the only time he interacts with anyone but by that time she is already completely deranged, so likely just seeing that in her mind or she is the one already sitting in the booth. When he visits her at work it has that over brightened picture when she gets the call, just like the final scene. Still no interaction from David with anyone. The apartment key is for a room that's already taken where she finds the baby's blanket. The tooth thing can literally be anything, even her just remembering that David was missing a tooth from back when she was with him. How you got the tooth means he's there, when literally everything points to him being a delusion, is beyond me. Theres so many clues to David being a delusion, just rewatch. The whole point of the movie is to show how much abuse and DV affects the victim. That it lives with the victim even after they are no longer with their partner, and even if the partner is never seen again.

Another thing worth pointing out is most people who leave a cult or a NXIVM style thing get therapy and family to support them afterward. She got nothing.

I think the ending was Margaret having a break from reality. There were a lot of subtle context clues left throughout the film that Margaret was unstable. The biggest red flag was when Abbie told her she thought Margaret was having an "episode".

[@Stefansrb369]

[@desireevega7787]

I think David forced her to have an abortion when she got pregnant that young, and she was left traumatized by the experience. When she says he ate the baby, I think it represents him taking that chance (of being a mother) away from her. So when David is back, all that trauma is back again, but also the chance she was robbed of, so in the end she takes back what was rightfully hers (the baby). All of that is in her mind, of course, there was no baby inside David, that is what she wanted to believe. When it comes to David, I think there's two possibilites: Either he never came back, but something triggered all those memories for her, so she started "seeing" him. Or he was in fact at that conference thing when she first saw him, like a coincidence, but after that they never met and it was all in her head because of the trauma of seeing him after all those years.

[@ConfutoDespartus]

I think he was there, and was messing with her. I agree with the abortion theory, but also with that scene where David tells her about a meeting they had but his description is different then what she remembers and what we saw, I feel thats the movie showing us an example of David manipulating her reality and memories. That the weird stuff with the baby are things she believes because he made her think they were real

[@mikeappleget482]

I spotted a few things that might’ve triggered her breakdown. That intern mentioned her boyfriend asking her to do things and the intern’s description must’ve reminded her of the “kindnesses”. Immediately after the meeting with the intern is when David appears.

She feels guilty for not only not doing anything about him causing the miscarriage, but also for not ending the relationship before that happened.

it is not "what is real" or "who is real" as much as what Margaret is perceiving. David could have very well been real and trying to contact Margaret to have closure maybe, but the moment Margaret sees him, no matter what he is saying in reality, Margaret only hears nonsense like the thing with the baby. There is a chance Margaret was in fact the one who killed the baby if we take into account the scene of the baby in the oven. It might be worth considering some of the encounters with David might have happened on her head while others weren't. Finally to me, Margaret was the one who arranged the encounter with David possibly under a lie while in her head it was David the one who asked for the encounter, by that moment she is so far gone she murders David, disembowels him, and before the film ends, she realizes once again she had an episode in which she murdered someone akin to her oven baby.

[@ariana6212]

I think another thing that makes this movie so psychologically complex is that we can see Maggie almost adopting David’s practices of the ‘kindnesses’ when she asked Abby to text her every hour and she’ll reward her with $20. Assuming David actually did the things she claimed he did (and that there was initially no underlying mental disorder on Maggie’s part when she was 19), I believe every interaction we saw with him during the movie wasn’t real and her mental state is now rapidly deteriorating because she never properly grieved or addressed the issue… all sparked by Abby going off to college soon. David’s actions and kindnesses in the past clearly mentally ruined Maggie and it’s quite curious seeing the the victim of such a thing now almost adopt a practice of the perpetrator. Great movie! The more you sit and think about it, the more possibilities open up to what could have truly happened.

[@badman843]

I'd say that pretty much every thing that happens in the movie is fake, she probably had mental issues 20years ago but was indeed with a somewhat abusive dude, he got her pregnant and either 1.she aborted it at his behest and internalized it as him litteraly taking her baby away and eating it 2.She didn't abort it, had an episode, put it in the oven and killed it "accidentally" (knowing she was manic) which also why she might've associated that idea of the baby being "eaten" after cooking it. However every element of the present is probably false and she's just having a major manic episode partially triggered by Abby leaving, maybe seeing a guy that looked like David at the conference, and/or simply time, as these things are generally bound to happen again without proper care. What's left to interpretation is simply if she actually murdered some random guy at the end or if that was an hallucination, but seeing the look on her face she probably snapped out of her episode and realized what she'd done.

This was such a good summation/explanation. I was really confused about the movie - what was real and what wasn’t. Now it seems obvious that David was never there and she’s having a psychotic break triggered by all that past trauma and Abbie leaving. And definitely she may have had episodes like this before from the way Abbie says she thinks she’s having an episode. I doubt David ate the baby. He was a total sadist so he likely told her that to be extra cruel. I’m really wondering what is going on in reality while she’s seeing these final things. Did she kill someone and realizes? Or was she realizing that it’s all not real. Considering the dark turn the movie took it’s likely the former more then the latter. I read someone suggesting that she is actually dead during the final Sven it dying and the gasp is her realization of that. I do think that gasp is meaning that something terrible has happened and it’s more then her hallucinating all of this. (Just an aside - The crispy baby was a rough scene!! 🫣 Uff!)

Once she realised she had gone so far as to cut a man open and search through his organs, but there was no Ben? That was the final straw that made her go completely insane.

Very possible ending as well - he was clearly extremely educated in psychology, meaning that he thought the thought of the baby being tied to him would protect him. But it doesn’t seem any other characters interacted with David, meaning it could have just been the fear that her daughter was leaving causing her to break, and reopening her psychological damage; in which she never actually healed from. I mean even in her office he came and no one else interacted with him.

Bingo- I think ppl who think present-David wasn't real are reaching a bit; way too many occurrences happened involving other places & people w/ David that it would just be ridiculous if it was "all in her head" lol

[@keelahrose]

Thank goodness for your channel. I saw the trailer for this and was interested in seeing it, but it looks like you've saved me from another weird ass movie.

[@TheLegPumpkin]

He is a representation of her insanity and inspiration that goes hand in hand. Ben was never real but the manifestation of her greatest inspiration but due to its genesis of insanity it cant be truly enjoyed or separated from it, but is in thd belly of insanity that her joy exists. Letting go completely of connections to society at the end allows her pure madness. Pure inspiration.

[@iB0NKERS]

What if everything is just in her head? Like what if Abbie was just the representation of Maggie when she was younger, before David abused her? And Maggie made her personal life up along with the routine for some sort of “control” but deep down, she truly wants to break free from her trauma (represented by Abbie trying to break away)? David showing up again would cause this routine to crack along with her reality while falling back into a submissive behavior when she was still being abused. I think David forced her to have an abortion, which he holds over her. Maggie killing her abuser would be her attempt at freeing herself but her mental state being too far gone. Abbie leaving would be that desperation to break out of her trauma basically being snuffed out and giving into the delusions. Would really put the movie in a darker tone than it already has.

[@AdamLovesHorror]

I’m grateful for the time you spent on this but to your viewers, know that he “explains” the movie in his own thoughts for about 30 seconds of the 35 minutes. This video should be called a “play by play” of the movie not an ending explained.

[@bearhow4876]

You had me at Rebecca hall

[@jenniferz2983]

something about that last scene with bright light and Abby holding the baby that we know is dead, both in white, made me think that Abby died at some point in the beginning of the movie.

[@travis3624]

Being put in the oven dream?

[@RandomOnePerson]

I actually think this was triggered with Abbie finding a tooth in her wallet. It’s so ridiculous and far fetched that Margaret’s only answer is that David planted it there and caused the hallucination of David in Margaret’s mind.

[@mikeappleget482]

And when that intern described to her a situation with her boyfriend similar to the “kindnesses”, immediately after that incident is when she “sees” David.

[@InaEsin]

Yes, I was wondering when that tooth was going to become "the key."

[@davidking4838]

This leaves the question of how the tooth got in her wallet? Certainly not an everyday occurrence, but perhaps someone was playing a joke? Not a funny one.

I never learned how to ride a bike, which sucks cause as an adult I’m almost afraid to try. My parents were going to pay these older neighbor girls to teach me, then when they were discussing payment a freak gust of wind came up behind me on the bike and drove me *up* the hill by my house-my feet couldn’t quite reach the pedals. I was so upset by the experience that my parents decided to just never teach me, which honestly described a lot of their parenting style: they never believed in taking a second chance at most things.

[@sjc4]

I think David was a real past relationship, but the current one is a manifestation of her illness. What triggered it is the real question.

[@mrmr3657]

I have no authority in this but my best guess is what was suggested, Or at least builds off of it. I believe Maggie’s Original relationship was in fact real and very much abusive. She never properly got treatment or addressed what happened afterwards, allowing the trauma and related issues to fester and grow. This ultimately comes to her head when her daughter has to go out on her own, causing her fears to manifest

[@Quandry1]

@@mrmr3657 The problem is that her own behavior throughout the movie and the way she loses it more and more, even threatening violence and other things, but more importantly an obsessively dangerous focus complete with conversations that we get told didn't actually happen the way she's shown them to us from a rather early point in the story before we're even really told her story about David. The Relationship as we are told it was with David may not actually be true and the seeming abuse from David may not be true but may be her own doing in her desperation to make David love her.

As much as I enjoy Hall, I can't say I enjoyed this film. As for that ending scene, I think the set and lighting also hint that it's not reality we're seeing -- bright, dream-like, white and sanitized.

i don't think he was real, i think her escalating panic about her daughter leaving home was so hard for her to cope with she created an alternative problem to deal with out of that emotion of impotence and loss.

Rebecca Hall is a lot like Elizabeth Moss in the way that she loves to play women who are THIS close to absolutely snapping. And like Elizabeth Moss, she’s a great actor

[@queenfree85]

I think the real issue is that the toxic predatory narcissistic sadistic relationship between her and David which ended abruptly with the loss, and presumably cannibalistic murder of, her first child which was the only thing she had to give her a reason to keep going despite all the breadcrumbing and love bombing David was doing in between torturing her and that she felt entirely responsible for due to it occurring the first moment she left her child on it's own triggered a massive psychotic break in her when, in her mind, the situation began to repeat itself. She was obsessively protective of her daughter, which she admitted to only having to replace her son, and as the daughter said she could not handle the thought of no longer having control or immediate access to her by way of her locking herself in her room, spending time away from home unannounced, heading off to college soon, and becoming an adult. This was only heightened by the bicycle accident, another although this time non fatal, incident stemming from her child being out of her sight/control. This is even represented by her relationship with her co worker because she knows he can't/won't try to control her or manipulate her since he's married so he's got more to lose if things get exposed or go badly than she does unlike in her younger years where her parents left her to her own devices with a much older man who took over her life and left her no choice. It's also why when he tells her he loves her she turns on him and threatens him. She doesn't want a man's feelings bc look what happened last time. Imo, she's only seeing David in her mind, the "kindnesses" might be real or at least some of them but mostly I think those are just mental self torture bc it's the kind of things David WOULD have asked of her while gaslighting that if she didn't comply she'd lose her son again, and the ending is most certainly some inner fantasy bc she's fully snapped.

[@kbcustoms3571]

I wanted an explanation of this movie and the options were limited here on KZbin so I went with this one and I tried three times to watch it and shut it off.... I shut it off because this guy's voice as he tried to explain things was all over the register up and down like a roller coaster. So bad that I absolutely could not even pay attention. Dude, if you're reading this, you could modify this part of your presentation and you would be blown away with how many people would stay with you. It is way too distracting.... Plus, when it comes to people wanting to find an explanation for a movie on KZbin, they don't want to sit through a 34 minute start to finish readers digest version of what happened. You need to take some notes and then make the video hitting the points. There's no reason why this couldn't have been done in 12 minutes

[@matthewvolb94]

Dude the yum yum yum crispy baby time cracked me up.

[@scotiancoast4498]

[@crabbasket1270]

Maybe the violent hotel scene was her giving birth to the baby boy and metaphorically killing David who represents past trauma which had resurrected when Margaret became pregnant again. Coincidently or not Abbie was the same age as her when she met David. I don't recall Abbie ever talking to anyone other than Peter. Peter was also confused when Margaret said children. We assume that he was confused because she used a plural but maybe it's because she never had a child. Maybe Abbie was the version of herself before she met David which she's been trying to protect but felt she was in danger again when she fell pregnant. It would explain why Abbie doesn't have a father. Margeret is Abbie and Margeret is trying to protect Abbie from past trauma which has resurrected from falling pregnant.
