I like to view the ending in a happier light. the man selling those paintings doesn't know their value, hence why he's selling them for five dollars, and the couple are buying it for it's beauty, they're appreciating it not for the price but for the work itself. The man isn't selling it to make ridiculous profit, he isn't fueled by greed and I think the final painting we see that he hangs up kind of reflects the good ending of the movie, the sun has risen and the children are seen enjoying nature in the way that the art itself should be enjoyed

I found it cool that Josephine’s end came when she was covered in paint. Near the beginning of the film, Morf tells Josephine that her skin is the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen. So it’s some ironic spin that her demise consisted of her skin becoming tainted and drowned in paint.

I don't think spirit of Dease will attack any of the people who purchased the art. He seemed to only go after people who were greedily profiting from his artwork. The guy on the street got money for it, but he didn't really care for it or believe it had real value, so he's in the clear too

[@dmittleman9757]

milk 고양이 milk 고양이 You’re pretty much right. Dease’s paintings somehow allowed his spirit to control and haunt various forms of artwork, not just his paintings, since all of the characters were killed by artwork made from different artists. Dease gave explicit instructions to destroy his paintings, so he is exacting revenge on anyone who tried to exploit his artwork for their personal benefit. The Hoboman didn’t kill Morf because it got a bad review. Dease’s spirit took control of the robotic sculpture as a way to get to Morf, who had previously bought some of his art and wanted to write a book about him. Someone suggested that Morf storing the paintings rather than destroying them meant he was planning to sell them or use them in the future, which would give Dease reason to kill him, but I feel as though Morf had learned his lesson. Maybe I’m biased because I like Jake Gyllenhaal.

[@jayhm9393]

I saw someone write this somewhere else but important to note is that every character dies while trying to move, hide or destroy the art. Morf keeping some pieces for himself in storage, Bryson stealing the paintings, Jon and Gretchen when making big sales, Josephina trying to remove the picture off her phone, Rhadora when getting rid of the paintings. Even Dease himself dies while trying to destroy his art. The idea, beside just the blatant "art for the sake of art, not money" theme - is that art will kill to be seen.

[@gorillaguy1000]

Jay HM wow thank you. I always just thought he just died of old age, but now that seems so silly. The art killed him!

[@mictony999]

And the black guy was never killed cause he loves looking at it, yes that explains why.

[@thefortnitemum]

morf was actually trying to get rid of them by locking them away. but it was too late

[@Pranckall]

also the character deaths were caused by pieces they did not appreciate or they became that bryson was killed by the paintings he took cos he thought they were probably the less valuable ones that people would not notice being missing gretchen got killed by the sphere that she just threw in as a tag-along to the dease works she wants exhibited morf got killed by the robot installation he shitted on josephina shitted on graffiti as not being good enough art when speaking with damrish so she died becoming graffiti rhadora removed all art in her house but not her tattoos (likely cos she did not even think it was art) so it was the tattoos that killed her also interesting how people considered the death of gretchen to be art (and josephina actually becoming art when she died) - it reflects the grotesque world of the art market and how it profits on the suffering of people e.g. dead artists like van gogh (or in this film, damrish) who never actually received much support for their works during their life

The part where he says “sobriety hasn’t been good for him” and the woman says “this was when he was in the full swing of alcoholism” and he says “exactly”. Was like a back and forth of him saying that the art piece is good BUT he’s not making good art anymore. Not that it was him making a mistake. It was a conversation stating that he sucks now but he used to be really good.

[@gamblorrr]

I agree.

[@whywhy3289]

I think it could also be that he was about to criticize the piece just based off of gossip about the artist current reputation, which would show how much the asking price of pieces of art was manufactured b.s.

[@ShanonField]

Exactly

[@Rachelof_arc]

It’s funny how in birdbox he’s a drunk

[@ShunStories]

I completely agree with this. As someone who has a small background in exhibition culture from multiple different mediums, when I first heard that line I knew instantly that he was referring to the fact his art is no longer as good. The art world can be such a snooty place, guess it is why I loved this movie.

[@BXCHAN]

I find it really interesting the only two main characters who didn’t die were the only ones who truly cared for art. Damrish let go of Haze’s massive deal in the end - and therefore a hell of a lot of profit and global recognition - and turned to the smaller company he was with before. Additionally Piers was already a well renowned artist, his name was already big. He COULD have been pumping out plenty of paintings for profit and people would’ve bought it solely for the name. But he didn’t, because he genuinely cared for his art and what it meant for him. He wasn’t inspired so his art wasn’t of good enough quality in his eye. Neither of them were hugely financially motivated. This is also why I think the couple who bought the painting in the end are safe. When they saw it, the girl said “that’s lovely” she knew nothing of the name Dease or it’s worth; she bought it solely because she appreciated the beauty of the art

[@DavidKen878]

No, that's not it. Damrish didn't die because he had nothing to do with with any of Dease's work. Same with Piers. Everyone who died had either profited or was planning to profit off of Dease. So the couple at the end are safe, but not because they appreciate art, but because they bought it. The guy who sold it, whoever.

[@gaila.9852]

No, this is not correct. The two of them had no involvement with the cursed art.

[@Sm0k3turt]

I think the ending is not bad. The fact that his art is being enjoyed not by price but just for what it is is a good ending to me.

[@CloudSixMusic]

Sm0k3turt13 exactly, I don’t think the whole spirit thing is to be taken literally and the ending is supposed to be like the superficial side of the art is done and it’s back to normality

[@RegularDude]

I thought the part where he says "exactly" in reference to the painting wasn't a mistake, but rather him stating that the artwork he was looking at was decent, because it was painted when the artist was an alcoholic, and maybe all his new works were crap because he's not drunk anymore.

[@MrWisski]

[@silenthero2795]

I don't think those people who bought the paintings from the street is going to get killed by the curse. The seller is simply selling it not out of greed or bad intentions but selling it as it is, a painting that need not be millions in value to have worth. Its price tag isn't making the painting more worthy or not. It is simply art for art's sake, not profit. That is how "art" should be and this is in contrast to those "critics" that a painting is only as good as its price tag.

[@mwont]

That's right. They bought the painting because they liked it, no because it was fashionable, or were expecting it profit from it in future. They just simply like the painting, without any financial motifs.

[@mizscoleman]

I'm not sure about that. Even a price of $5 is still profit because the vendor on the street did not create the art himself, nor is he lovingly admiring it in some "safe space." He's on the street making money for the sake of making money. I don't know how the tortured ghost painter would feel about that.

Like using the sphere sculpture(Gretchen was really drawn to it in the first place), Hobo Man (Morf gave it a bad review and ignored the message of the piece), the graffiti street art (Josephina’s boyfriend was a street artist & missed the point of his art), and finally Rhodora’s tattoo(the punk band she was in and left for this lifestyle). Body art is still Art. Also If I remember correctly Rhodora got rid of ALL the art she had in her home not just the Dease painting.

[@skygirlBAJ]

I've never seen the movie so I can't say for sure, but the way it's described here, I can see a morbidly beautiful irony in Josephina's death. She claimed there is no point in art if people and the public can't see it. Then when she is killed, she is assimilated into a piece of graffiti art. Which is an art that's ignored, or not seen by the public. So in death, the artist teaches her the true value of art.

[@bomber9912]

i think the interpretation of the ending wasnt good. I think the ghost will not return to haunt those who bought or sold the art for 5$, because the whole movie was a critique towards the art industry that tries to basically dictate whats art and what not and wants to make as much money as possible. I see many hints towards Banksy in this movie, who did similar stunts that fit this theme. For example did he literally sell his art for those 5$ to random people walking by even though they are worth now hundreds of thousands dollar. He even tried to destroy his own painting during an auction. What we see in this movie and what sadly is reality is that art has become a perversion of what it used to be. Its no longer about the meaning or interpretation but only about how much money auctioneers can make. I tihnk the end of the movie was supposed to show a contrast to what we have seen already and it is representing irony and even mocking the industry to some degree. The art that has been previously sold for multiple millions is now being sold for couple of bucks by people who dont really understand or try to understand art. They want to make a living and let actual people decide what the art is worth to them or not. Thats what art should be. Another parallel to Banksy is the street artist Damrish - also a graffiti artist - who always leaves the scene in hurry aftere starring at the art for minutes and thinking about it. He was guided back to his roots by the art and didnt care about the money he could potentially make. At the very end of the movie we see Piers drawing circles and lines in the sand while the water washes away parts of it. I think this is a very clear message from the director to the viewer: Art is transient. It fades away.

Just an opinion to your first statement : It starts off as 5 dollars but the hobo will soon see that people are very much drawn to these works and the amount will surely increase. even though it's just a homeless man selling art for 5 bucks,he still just wants it for profit instead of giving it away for others to enjoy- I mean its STOLEN art for goodness sake he didnt go to the cops and return it to see who it belongs to he knew "this is something I can sell" and thats all he saw about it no passion no sincerity about it nada. He has no artistic background in comparison to the others working in the industry so to him he tests the waters starting at 5 - hes got a thousand pieces to sell so 5 will easily turn into 5k but Im sure he'd increase it the more people are enchanted and "hypnotized" by the allure of DEASE paintings. But there's so much wishy washy "rules" for this spirit dead guy or w/e ...like if youre a bad person you die I guess?? but I feel the reason Coco didnt die is because she literally said "If I dont make money Ill move back to Michigan" meaning at this point she hasn't made a PROFIT from the DEASE paintings and therefore she lives...for now. [But when she was talking with dondon she showed that she was willing to do shady shit against her last employer to work with him showing that the rat race art world was getting to her and her fate wouldnt probably be too far off from the others in time - not necessarily death but a change in her as a person for the worst]. Same with Damish , he decided to go away and return to his roots as you said with art and not fly high with the "big wigs" so he was saved . And etc with Piers like the critic said so ,that being said - I agree with how the critic is interpreting the ending. But art isnt something that fades away. In fact it is more permanent than our own lives. far after we are dead our works will live after us unless destroyed by someone or nature gets a hold of it. People are still marveling at michelangelo, davinchi, degas , rembrandt, warhol, dahli, everett,mucha,klimt,caravaggio, etcetcetc looong after they have left us - the important part of Piers's ending is that he LETS it fade away - he is simply creating for creating's sake and is unattached to the end result - just purely having fun. the only thing that fades away in todays art world is who is "in" and who is "out" the popularity of the next best thing. But the classics and how we study them and honor them will not fade and that is how it should be with art in general but because of money and such it becomes about that.

[@T2a585]

bomber9912 referring to banksy, no they were worth millions when did that. He disguised them as cheap knock offs

[@TeshiMeshi]

@@donventura2116 like i said,unless a human destroys it or it gets destroyed naturally yes. But the pieces and artists themselves dont really as we have photos,books,classes,and people that are hand chosen to restore the works to their former glory[which is a huge honour and life dedicating job]. It doesnt matter that these works have been touched up or that they are replicated images its the fact they still exist and many people still talk about them. When I say art doesnt fade I dont mean it as literally as it could be - there are going to be artists many people never knew or will know and only they will know their art until they die,yes ,and then we have street art that can be painted over or buildings demolished etc, I understand that nothing is all that permanent I just disagreed with the way the original poster was using "art fades" - it just seemed to be missing a point when put together with their theory. I think as long as there is one person to hold onto a memory of art and shares it whether the original, in a photo , or a duplicate it exists - I guess my meaning went more off into a sentimental semi permanence type way of thinking ,something you hold onto. But that comes from an artists point of view as well :]

[@MiniM69]

The art world is as weird, elitist and monied as portrayed. Another important point about the absurdity of the current state of art - Toni Collette’s character doesn’t just work at a museum, she’s a curator at LACMA, one of the most prominent modern art museums in the States, yet is relegated to a minor role in art acquisition (like at Art Basel Miami) because the best pieces are bought by wealthy collectors (usually in frenetic private auctions or negotiation) never to be seen in public again (as her character gripes about in the movie). This real-world buying frenzy is almost unheard of elsewhere and if she can’t compete, what hope do the rest of us have. It’s unfair that such brilliance and talent in any field should be sequestered away from the public and reserved for the wealthy. Also, it’s interesting that the art has a markedly different effect on the artists namely Piers and Damish in the film...they’re more unsettled than the others, seemingly understanding the darker forces earlier than the others.

[@katiathecake-lovingcat6912]

I never thought of that but it's a really cool interpretation! Do you think that she died because she still participated in the highbrow world despite her dislike of it? Because to me her death doesn't really fit, she seemed to actually enjoy the art and had a desire to share it unlike the others who just used it for money.

That... Would have yielded a nicer development... Even if he had gone after he went to the optometrist.

Like, even though he is obviously seeing wired shit and he knows something is not right, it's less of an assult to his ego and mental faculties if his experiences can be boiled down to an eye problem... Rather than a MIND problem.

Josephina used the cat as an excuse to look at and then to steal Dease's paintings. She gives the cat to Coco, the ultimate finder of dead bodies. Dease's art was giving the other art the power to kill the profiteers as Dease's art itself never killed anyone. It didn't target the buyers or viewers of said art leaving all of them alone. It seemed to also inspire the true artists (Bryson was a poser) to make art for themselves and not the profiteers of the art world. Overall loved the movie. It's in my binge worthy top ten. Like the German title for the movie as well. Die Kunst des Toten Mennes. The art of the dead man. Or so google translate tells me.

I agree. I think he is lumped in with the rest just because he is killed. I think he would have been fine if he didn’t try and keep some of the art at the end. Him wanting to keep it showed he did have some kind of greed for the art. Even if it wasn’t money.

[@iluvsyouallz]

I think you might have missed a scene. He literally gave a bad review to Josephina's ex at her request, causing the guy to end up in a car crash. You can also see at the funeral how his art critiquing, essentially deciding what is and isn't art, destroys people's entire careers. This is why all those voices were parroting his negative reviews back to him in that sound proof room. He isn't actually genuinely critiquing anything, he's just deciding who's art will get sold for millions and who's will get put into storage, only to further his career and profit while pretending he's above it all.

[@lukehanaike5889]

@@iluvsyouallz yea and on top of that he still tried to save some of the cursed art for his own personal reasons.

[@katiathecake-lovingcat6912]

Agreed (get it? a-Greed?) Even if he did do it out of passion for art, his willful disregard of it's effects on people's lives and his ability to affect the art world itself is what got him killed.

Jake Gyllenhaal was, like always, amazing in his role, but my god was this movie a major disappointment. I was so mad.

Custom Evolved I agree. But it was still weirdly entertaining incoherent mess. It was like to different styles of movie thrown together.

[@Gonk]

[@itsshowtime345]

Personally I think it was a reference to the common belief that someone's soul/intent never really dies when they do if they have put themselves into it, quite literally in Dease's case by using his blood. The Conjuring movies being an example I guess of the usual mainstream version, where a soul latched onto something (the house) or demon using the Annabelle doll. If angered or just naturally a bad soul from them being a tortured/shitty human, if it doesn't get what it wants, it lashes out. I think they didn't go into it because other than Jake Gyllenhaal's character when he was realizing how fucked everything was and pretty much before Rhodna or whatever her name was was realizing she will die if she stayed around art, it wouldn't be in character or the timing wouldn't be right for them to look into it anyways and for them to finish the movie so dramatically. I honestly did not watch the trailer completely, only until they explain that the paintings were discovered in a dead guys apartment, so I found some of the deaths fitting but not completely unexpected. I barely even realized they were switching cities or how much time had passed with the pacing though, but whatever. I sort of enjoyed it and the message I probably pulled out of my ass for it however lol
