![]() ![]() The film ends with Susan emailing Edward to set up a dinner meeting at a restaurant. Susan meticulously adjusts her appearance before heading out. On a basic level, I think it's clear that Edward's book is about his marriage to Susan. The murder of Hastings' wife and child, Laura and India respectively, signify Edward's wrenching grief at how his own wife and child were taken away from him. ![]() In Edward's eyes, when Susan left him, she did so mercilessly. She never appreciated his work, never gave their marriage a chance, and then aborted their child while trying to keep him in the dark about it. For Edward, these events were as traumatic as a double murder. But the end of the book is Edward saying goodbye to his past self and deciding to move on. The events of the film Nocturnal Animals are all about Edward's revenge on Susan. The first stage of it is to create something brilliant in the face of his ex-wife's lack of faith. Many years after their marriage, Edward has emerged from obscurity with a book that Susan describes as "violent and sad." To the audience experiencing the book onscreen, it's chilling and Hitchcockian. It's brilliant filmmaking that recalls the best of the Coens and I was in awe that Tom Ford was able to deliver something at this level for his second film outing.īut what of the film's ending? After all that we've seen, how is standing Susan up for a date supposed to be satisfying in any way? I was enthralled with every aspect of the Hastings saga, from the initial scenes that tragically rise to a boil, all the way to the way Texas lawman Bobby Andes ( Michael Shannon) deals with the criminals towards the end.
