Talk:Creep (2004 film)
I removed the supposed subtext of the film from the article:
- "The film's take on the slasher genre is an interesting one due to its focus on Kate's search for love. Kate, who is a distinctly unlikeable character, in searching for her perfect man encounters a number of men, including the killer, who are all socially unacceptable yet are all either likeable or attract the viewer's sympathy, both things which Kate struggles to do."
Having seen the film this strikes me as a personal interpretation. We should only put this in if we know its what the filmmaker's intended, or its how the film is being widely interpreted. Jihg 20:52, Feb 3, 2005 (UTC)
- It is what the filmmaker intended, he said as much in a Q&A session I attended. Although in retrospect I think you are probably right to remove the section as it was. I don't think there's a problem with including interpretations, although I think they should be clearly identified as such (which in this case it wasn't). Rje 09:10, Feb 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Well, if that's what he said... :-) I've put it back in the article. Any details of where he said it? Jihg 14:28, Feb 4, 2005 (UTC)
