the irony of this whole idea though that edgy 'satanist' and atheist types don't get is that that very quality that makes Thomasin so deliciously attractive is facilitated/maintained by Christian values and traditionalism.

becoming sexually 'liberated' quickly makes a woman lose those qualities, if her sexuality isn't managed in a more responsible way, and she develops a 'wordly', jaded, slutty quality that lacks everything that makes Thomasin so desirable.

This is why traditional, 'classy' women are so much more sexy, even as they're more subtle in how they express sexiness in their self-presentation

Watched the Thunder game with a friend at some bar and got a number from a chick with a nice rack. She had weed on her which was a plus. I'm kinda numb to shit right now so it wasn't a big deal to me really. On the train home with the rest of the drunk losers right now. NY btw.

Also the father was excommunicated because he worshiped differently. Or something. I don't know I'm drunk but basically his pride got his family killed. They all sinned somehow, the fathers pride and the son looking at his sister like that. He didn't resist at the end because he thought God sent the goat to punish him (as well as cursed his crops), but it was really the Devil fucking with them all along in the form of a goat.

Settling this once and for all.

The Puritans wanted to break away from English Christianity, which was tyrannical, but otherwise liked the religion and wanted to "purify" it. The father was a Separatist, a small but vocal minority of Puritans, who not only wanted to leave England but totally overhaul the whole deal as it had become so corrupted. The Pilgrims of 1621 were Separatists, and the father was likely one of the stragglers that made it over with the first waves of Puritans in 1630 that settled in Salem/ the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Pilgrims/Separatists were looked at as holier-than-thou pricks, hence the claims of "prideful conceit." While people came over to America for religious freedom, having any sort of minor deviation from your plantation was social suicide. Being a Separatist in a Puritan plantation was not good for you.

I actually rewatched this movie with a friend earlier today.

I initially thought that there was some sort of subtext that Sam was Thomasin's son, because I thought I heard her refer to someone as her 'son' at the beginning, but now I realize she, when praying to god, said 'thy son', referring to God's son, Jesus. It certainly simplifies things, as I wasn't sure where that addition would have fit into the story.

>ambiguous ending meme
Showing the witch in the first five minutes raises the stakes for the characters. Delivering on that promise is the only logical conclusion.
>>
>>70157172
Tons and tons of this.
Also the family coming from that Puritan community explains why the witches would want to fuck with the hem in the first place. Unbaptized babies (as they explain Sam was) are especially valuable since their souls are vulnerable, and baby fat is a key ingredient in "flying ointment" which helps them fly. They have to rub it not only on their sticks, but on their bodies, which explains that scene.
So that old witch could have also used the baby fat (which is a key ingredient in a lot of spells) to make herself young, or the hot witch could have just been another one of the 6 witches you see at the end of the film.

And to answer OP. I lived deliciously today by drinking rum, good beer, and purchasing Club crackers instead of just Ritz, purchasing ACTUAL BUTTER, and taking a hot shower, which may not seem like much, until you consider that my hot water heater had to be repaired by untrained hands. Once you've been without hot water for 2 weeks, it becomes delicious!!
>>
>>70158003
I'm not saying it should be ambiguous. I'd prefer the ending with the goat/devil. The part with her walking into the forest and floating into the air was superfluous nonsense. Her signing the contract was closure enough.
>>
>>70158121
No way man!!
If the movie had ended with her just signing the book, and fade to black it would havebeenso infuriating! At the very least it would have been anti climactic as fuck. She signs a book and then the credits roll??
Her dancing naked and floating for me was one of the best horror movie endings I can recall. The rest of the movie is all relatively believable non supernatural shit. Once Black Phillip shape shifts, we have all crossed over into the undeniable supernatural. The simple act of her floating was the perfect ending imo!
>>
I just watched it with my ex and her boyfriend. Movie was really boring, it felt like it had no substance or actual plot, just watching a family die. It was literally just watching a family die and that girl fucking the goat. I don't get why you guys are so in to this film.

So, the last two minutes, then.

Even there, it's necessary to see that this wasn't some persuaded move on Thomasin's part. We see that she enjoys her decision, and the look on her face is one of relief, confirmation, ecstasy, and happiness. Ending with Black Phillip robs the audience of that experience, and ends on a note of, again, ambiguity that leaves the viewer thinking that she didn't *really* want to do it.

>I'm not saying it should be ambiguous. I'd prefer the ending with the goat/devil. The part with her walking into the forest and floating into the air was superfluous nonsense. Her signing the contract was closure enough.

In The Human Stain, one of the professors says he fails anyone instantly if they use the word closure.

You may be right, but you're coming at this from film school / story 101. And that shit is not art.

The ending we got had nuts and spooge. The entire film beforehand was a master class in ambiguity, and this absolutely carries on into the final scene. Not only that, it kinda doubles down on it.

To insist that the final scene has to be the reveal, the end, the 'closure' indicates an on rails, unimaginative dependence on a glancing knowledge of story. I used to make films in a local film making collective, and nearly everyone in the group fell for this Robert McKee bullshit, which was all you needed to confirm they had no talent or art in them at all, and that they were really better suited to the desk jobs they now all have.

I watched the Witch. The Dad was kicked out of the community for being retarded and talking back to the judge. Imagine living completely living outside of all known civilization and not going insane.

The Puritans were impressive because they did not lose their wits when settling wilderness as they easily could have (Heart of Darkness). That's why they relied on such a strict code.

When the characters in the movie leave the community it's inevitable that the wilderness will make them crazy. It's what wilderness does.

I saw Black Phillip at a general store in Jamestown yesterday. I told him how delicious it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a cur and bother him and ask him for recitations or anything.
He said, “Like as of now, doth thou persist?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Eh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “Baa! Baa! Baaaaa!” and mudging his horns in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen blocks of butter without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Mercy sir, have yee coin fer' it?” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the blocks and started tallying it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to tally them each individually “to ensure thy felt each a intefference,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she tallied each block and put them in a burlap sack and started to say the price, his girls kept interrupting by shrieking really loudly.

She was a 13-14 year old girl, of course she wanted freedom from that oppressive religion

This movie is about choatic wilderness versus the oppressive will to conqour, and being that age all you want to do is break free. Probably why the devil came and murdered her whole family

But I've been wondering. Was she possessed the whole time? Was the evil stuff happening on the farm because the devil was working through her? Or was it just made to look that way to alienate her from her family?

What does the title card say? "A New England Folktale". It's not meant to be ambiguous or complicated. Think of it like you're being told a story at bedtime or in a classroom. The movie has a very straightforward lesson.

What's the first scene in the movie? William think he's better and more pious than the village counsel, and says he's happy to be banished. This leads directly to his baby being kidnapped. He ignores this and ignores that his wife is beside herself with misery because of his actions.

The movie is mostly a catalogue of his lies and hypocrisy and how his poor example spreads to the rest of the family. He lies constantly, about the cup, about hunting, and encourages also his son to lie, even as he tells him to memorize how his soul is riven with sin. Even his baby is filled with sin, in his mind, yet the sin we witness is his constant hypocrisy.

Things spiral out of control. The children accuse each other, but only because they've learned how to lie for their own safety when convenient, and out of a sense of real danger that their parents will harm them if they're found to be consorting with the devil. They're right to turn on each other! It's only natural in a house as mad as this.

The father dies, killed by Black Phillip. Why does he accept his death? "Corruption, thou art my father".

And so Thomasine, left with nothing, turns to the only source of authority and shelter left to her: the evil present in the house. But they had every chance to turn away from evil, to scorn hypocrisy. They didn't.

So what's the moral of the story? False piety is no substitute for moral substance. Very straightforward, very unambiguous.
