Chekhov's Gun | |
All Is Lost / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The man is seen pulling his container of potable water from the ship when the lower deck floods. When he chooses to use it on the raft, he discovers salt water has leaked in. However, while the drinking water is all useless, the container still has uses to catch condensation and when lighting the fire at the end. When trying to signal a ship with flares, he's shown to leave exactly one flare for later. Then at the end when he sees a light in the distance, he goes for the flare... then changes his mind and instead sets the entire raft on fire. | |

All Is Lost / int_3ac583f4 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: The movie is somewhat in the middle about this, but what happens to the man at the end depends on where the viewers lie on the spectrum. | |

The Aloner: Due to being stuck out at sea, the man is isolated from anyone else. The only other person seen is a single hand at the very end, and their actor is uncredited. | |

All Is Lost / int_549a92e7 | comment |
Minimalism: There's a man on a boat. We don't know who he is, where he's from, why he's on a boat, why he went out to the Indian Ocean, or if he has any friends or family. All we know is that he has to survive. He does write a letter for people to find after he dies, but it's unclear who those people might be. He alludes to having regrets about how he lived his life, but he doesn't mention anything specific. | |

Silence Is Golden: There is virtually no dialogue in the film, except for the opening monologue that provides part of the page quote, a few abortive attempts at calling for help, and an Atomic F-Bomb. | |

No Ending | |
All Is Lost / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
No Ending: The film doesn't really have a definite ending. The man is saved by a passing boat and it's unclear whether the boat is real, a Dying Dream, or Divine Intervention. And due to Chandor and Redford's respective Shrug of God, many interpretations of the ending exist, each one equally plausible. | |
