what's with the doughnut scene?
whenever i see a cinnimon doughnut i remember that disgusting scene. Plus i reckon that the dad really raised two stupid kids, why were they sad about harlan dying after what he did? O_o
shareIs it not meant to be him trying to fit a "doughnut hole" into the hole of a doughnut and it clearly wasn't fitting? I thought it was quite poignant. It reminded me of the phrase of trying to make a square peg fit into a round hole. It displayed how much the character stood out in society. There is also this sense of something being false, not what it seems, much like the character. The food isn't really the hole from a doughnut, that's not how they are made. Then of course there is the concept of filling a hole emotionally, although it seems I have over-analysed the scene enough without going any further.
I agree with your point
While I almost smirked at this moment, I also found it stood out to me as a nice, food based visual metaphor for the situation in hand.
I was surprised by the film. Twas good, not bad.
Yes, and perhaps this scene was somewhat mirrored by the scene at the "western movie set".
