Troppo Daffy

It’s crazy how a movie/series can feel complete the first time you watch it. Every scene, every motive, every ending locked into one interpretation. But when you watch the same movie/series years later, it rearranges itself. The characters mean something else. The ending lands differently. What once felt obvious now feels incomplete. The Death Of The Author was never just about books. It applies to films too. Once the work is out in the world, the director’s intention recedes, and the meaning now depends on the viewer: how they interpret it, and how much knowledge and life experience they bring to it.
