so I am inclined to believe that there is a certain desire on her part for her own demise, a certain peace with the reality of death. Or it could be an inner struggle that she loses. I don't know.
When she's talking with the circle of presumably friends, she looks off into the distance and "sees" a glimpse of her "death self" running through the forest. Then, a few seconds later, she looks off and takes a bite of food just as another glimpse of her "death self" is revealed to the viewer. Clearly a communion thing going on here. Communion with death? Peace with death? Or just foreshadowing? Yet Hamlet's Ophelia demonstrated a certain sense of peace with her impending doom
I noticed that when she was in the forest her white dress was rather similiar to the one worn by Ophelia in a couple famous paintings depicting the character in the forest or in the water. I somehow doubt this is mere chance, given the context of drowning and the fact that she was in a forest just like Ophelia. Also, sleeping pills and "goodnight sweet ladies, goodnight....ect..." seemed conceptually interlinked. This was pretty bloody good, in my opinion.
If, during the scene where she was reading in her room, Charlie Chaplin had of entered the room in his "tramp" character and hit her over the head with a large trout I would have smiled.I guess I thought of that because it was a silent movie. Ever thought of crossing over to talkies? I heard they were all the rage.

One could call this a cautionary tale about drug use, yet I somehow sense that the sublime is being explored.
