Current Events > Remember that Shyamalan movie The Village?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Her partial sight explains many scenes as well as her personality & behavior particularly towards the end.

Is it worth rewatching to see how the scenes are different?

Of course it is.

She looks right down that pit, man.

Thats why she was sent. Because she can keep a secret.

I only remember the first two! The first seemed guessable from the movie's heading and the second was spoiled in a news article I think

wait i think i misunderstood you. i thought you meant the 3rd point as in the line that starts with 3., not the 3rd spoiler block

I really dont think it ever told us that shes not really blind. You could assume it I guess, but its not in the movie

I mean, do you need someone to tell you? Yes. Thats what makes it all so fun.

Is that Rose?

Looking at something. Yes

I never got the sense that Ivy wasn't blind.

Well, there you have it. She has some form of partial sight.

I mean, I don't feel like the movie portrayed her as having sight, at least not beyond that ability to see colors around certain people.

I understand. Yes. Yellow & Red imagery, absolutely. Was on my mind.

alas

There she is. Looking down a pit. Angrily.

They don't let you scan properly like an actual employee would, so it's like using training wheels.

Yeah, this one is annoying, especially as a former cashier (and a very fast one at that). I instinctively go to scan the next item with one hand, while my other hand is still putting the other item down, and of course it doesn't register it. >_>

And then they constantly fuck up and you need an employee to come anyway.

But I've never run into this issue other than ID checks on alcohol.

The twist made me laugh out loud in the theater. I really liked the movie until then.

I am definitely not getting that from your screenshot. Maybe context in the scene matters. I dont remember it.

You dont see a blind person staring at something? She is.

Blind people don't lose their eyes or stop pointing them at things. Very difficult for me to determine in a screenshot she is specifically looking at something. I zoomed in and can't even tell what her eyes are doing.

Truth be told. I dont particularly care whether Im right or wrong. But it certainly wouldnt make any sense if she didnt have partial sight, to be quite honest. She would NEVER be able to return to the right spot in the woods. Period.

You wanna see a really good total blindness acting? Watch Red Dragon.
