The Room: An In-Depth Analysis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmI5qqIhEtY (My comment there "I bet the new Twin Peaks: The Return is heavily influenced by this" got 72 likes since last year!)
The Room analysis https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMc-px-ksebJ9FxH2hY9EMWBBjGkuCYlN (27 videos, 6 hours and 23 minutes long) Breaking down almost every single detail in every frame, from dialogue to character names (their possible biblical/Greek mythology origins), to the color of the clothes they wear, to frame composition and object juxtaposition.
举一个这位博主分析出来的例子——女主角名叫Lisa;男主Johnny在与Mark的对话中提到他的前女友名叫Betty;而Denny喜欢(并幻想未来婚娶生子)的对象叫做Elizabeth。Lisa和Betty都是Elizabeth这个名字的缩写。Lisa, Betty和Elizabeth其实是同一个人。
当Johnny说起过去与Betty分手时,其实映射了他与Lisa在未来的关系的破裂;而Denny在影片中几次三番表达对Lisa的爱慕,只可惜Denny还是个孩子(影片开头Denny试图向Johnny和Lisa提出threesome的请求被拒绝),于是这份幻想便只能化成等待自己毕业长大成人后,才在Lisa/Elizabeth身上实现。注意到影片提到Johnny将支付Denny的学费直至Denny毕业,所以在某种程度上Denny长大成人之时,也就是Johnny (John the Baptist)影响不再之时。但他们仍然交接着同一个爱慕对象Lisa/Elizabeth,这种交接和传承在结尾更得到体现。
Oh no Youtuber Alan Waller deleted his 6 and half hour The Room in-depth analysis 😭
