    John's Pursuit of Freedom Endangers His Own Family

    It's typical for children — and especially teenagers — to long for the freedom of adulthood. From their perspective, it looks so easy and fun, as most adults tend to keep the trials and tribulations of adult struggles to themselves. The teenager thinks adults can do whatever they want, eat whatever they want, and suffer no consequences for the choices they make. Childhood misconceptions about that freedom lead many to experiment in adult activities behind their parents' backs, often finding t...

    Brad and Anna Don't Want to Believe He Trapped Them

    By the time John wants his family back, he has held them in the bunker where another drama is playing out. In this one, John's father, Brad, played by Dexter's Michael C.

Even after the answer becomes clear, John’...

    The Return To Normal Life Has Never Looked So Dark

Did he simply want them out of the way, so he could do whatever he wanted for a time, experiencing the true freedom adults allegedly enjoy, or was he angry with them? Perhaps there was something darker and less obvious lurking just beneath the surface that motivated him to do what he did. The family's silence about the incident...

    Lily is a character who exists outside of John's timeline, and when she is introduced about a half hour into the film, it becomes clear that the viewer sees John's story as the fable that Lily's mother, Gloria, tells Lily at bedtime. All the audience really knows about Lily is that she won't leave her room. When the film reaches its conclusion, Gloria tells Lily that she is abandoning her. Gloria leaves Lily enough money to get her through a year, but after that, Lily is on her own. There hav...

  2. Jan 1, 1994 · The Hole in the Wall is a cracking story set in Wapping, a poverty stricken, rough as sandpaper and dangerous part of London’s docklands, at the turn of the 20th century. (And Wapping was still a rough place until being redeveloped since the 1980s.)
