I didn't get it

yeah it's possession like in a relationship but why did half the shit happen in the movie?
why were the detectives fags that she murdered/asimmilated into that weird tentacle monster that then became sam neil?
I'm assuming it's an allegory for breaking up and not wanting to let go of the other person and then recreating the same relationship over and over (the teacher looks just like Anna, the monster turns into sam neil) but I still didnt get shit like why was Heinrich so weird and dancing around like a flamboyant retard? why did anna cut herself with the electric knife? what was the whole freakout scene in the subway about? what was the entire shootout ending about?
ps i also dont know shit about the berlin wall thing so anything about that went right over my head.

both dopplegangers are manifestations of the changes people make to try to fix a broken relationship

they become completely different, fake people. eventually the monster that sam neil becomes causes the kid to drown in his own misery

mate i don't have time to explain the entire film to you. you would do well to really think about it because it's a rare film that's rewarding to understand. rewatch it. think about all the meanings of "possession". it's very layered. i know people post the shock scene but this is one of the best artistic films of all time.

shit, pretentious movie.
also shit acting on her part

that is to say that everything in the film makes perfect sense once you understand it.

you shitbag camembert was my goddamn favorite

so am i at least kinda right in what i got on a first viewing?

not really desu. but you are thinking outside the box

>dad comes home
>she's been fucking around
>the whole fucking relationship is spiraling out of control
>they're fucking crazy around one another and even when they're left alone with their own thoughts
>they move places and become different people, the idealized version of what the other wants (her a subserviant innocent woman, him a cold player, both more fantasy than human)
>the child knows what's happening
>is drowning in all their dumb shit knowing they'll just eventually get divorced when the fakeness stops and they fight again
There you go. Possesssion for dummies.

Cont.
>detectives
Were just detectives. You can assume everyone is actually alive.
>why was Heinrich so weird
He was just that type of flamboyant, "worldly" person.
>why did she cut herself?
See - they're fucking nuts due to the relationship.
>subway scene
She had a miscarriage. It was most likely Heinrich's.
>shootout
The death of their old selves.
>Berlin Wall
The idea that they're delving into a territory they hadn't before, a more sinister territory.

I really appreciate your breakdown of it but I almost understand it even less now.

It's a metaphor for a crumbling marriage if you understand it and a really good horror film if you don't. That's a better takeaway.

more like Pussession

To be married is to kill a part of yourself.

It's a "possession" as in "possession of property".

It's what happens when women don't get their daily quadruple dosage of dick.

>tfw unable to enjoy the movie because everybody in it kept fucking screaming

She was really hot in this
