Mr. Steward was either the anti-crist, or god. Norma representing Eve biting the apple/ pushing the button. Arthur being adam, and Walter being Jesus Christ, because if norma didn't pay the conciquence, innocent walter would have had to pay it, just like jesus christ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-14459566446390486022009-11-15T18:34:52.183-05:002009-11-15T18:34:52.183-05:00I think the author wants us to decide what the symbolism is about, in the water and lightening. Maybe judgment, maybe rebirth, different choices that all people make whether consciously or subconsciously. Is God in control, is He vengeful,do we need to repent. Why are some people used as messengers or vehicles to share the message of eternity, are they God sent, or are they delusional and charismatic and we will fall for anything where greed is brought into play. I thought it was all very entertaining,thought provoking, without getting too profound, suspensefully adapted for the screen, acting was well done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-67015733236463605722009-11-11T11:43:00.097-05:002009-11-11T11:43:00.097-05:00i saw the movie and didn't understand it. could someone explain? i got the whole thing that arlington steward was testing humanity and their chooses. but i don't get what lightning and the water and stuff had to do with it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-12442493094426319212009-11-08T19:50:25.500-05:002009-11-08T19:50:25.500-05:00I agree with aaron_appler. The movie was very interesting, creepy, funny, suspenseful....it was every genre in one. I heard of the short story about 4 years ago, and also saw a twilight zone episode, in which the movie was based on both of them. I was VERY excited when i heard of the movie comming out. I definately recomend the movie!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-48091502272864610782009-11-08T00:35:31.414-05:002009-11-08T00:35:31.414-05:00I loved the movie... it made a lot of sense about how humans are & what they may do if they had to make a choice like that! If you thought it was terrible maybe you need to study a little sociology & philosophy...aaron_applerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01755553999810781781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-40396191517116934032009-11-07T01:39:49.641-05:002009-11-07T01:39:49.641-05:00This movie was aweful. It was pointless, and although the actors did well the story had nothing. There wasn't a time in the story when you could say, Oh ! I get it....Terrible..Waste of money...and i love movies.Sherylhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09537125364801979716noreply@blogger.com
