The Deer Hunter



Have any of you considered that Buck could be the killer? He is certainly portrayed as being full of anger. And Aaron is a hateful guy who was willing to kill as a kid and continues to watch violent movies (like this one). There is certainly a reason that Alexie has this movie and this scene playing in the apartment. What does it mean? What is he getting at? How is this movie analogous to the violence in the book and the power dynamics as well?

  1. Is this spoiling anything? I know this is a famous scene from the film and I still plan to see this.

  2. I don't think that this spoils anything if you haven't seen the movie. Anyway - you haven't seen it yet, even though you "plan to," so maybe you should just watch it. Since I posted it just for you.

  3. i cant see buck being that killer, that would be to obvious in the novel. I still think that the killer is going to be an unsuspecting person.
