My take is that he was tho, thats why they are both called "Thomas", but he wasn't knee deep on the snow in Canady talking to yerself... He made it a bit far, he was indeed unconscious, dying slowly and in pain in a rocky shore somewhere and all that psycotic trip was him vs his own guilt and regret, lust and pain..
@@nf5011 perhaps by trying to reach the light, he tried to escape his own nightmare. And when he did, he found himself on the unknown shore being eaten alive

@@giggythore exactly. Thomas did an excellent job of gaslighting winslow throughout the entire movie. Combined with his surreal dreams, occasional hallucinations, drunkenness, and only having Thomas as a source to confirm what he thought he knew, Winslow was totally insane by the end of the film.

That scene where they're both under the table was really one of the most disturbing to me.

Does he really mean Canada by "Canady"? Or does he mean Canady as in the extinct town of Canady from Missouri. Missouri does get snow so that might be it.
It's just a descent into madness, people. It doesn't make complete sense because it's trying to drive YOU bonkers too. Best horror films do that. "The Shining", I'm looking at you.
@Ali Shabbiri Please expand on what you mean by that. Make sense to only you in your social circle, or do you believe you stand alone in your complete understanding of this crab-gut zaniness?
Thomas Howard murdered Winslow and Wake certainly was involved in whatever happened to his previous partner. They're both denying everything and that's why they are punished for their sins by the end of the film. This is what I interpretate of it.
Two things that I love about this scene: first how the sound of the wind subtly increases while Wake is talking, and how the lifesaver vest drops around Winslow's legs, as if he was walking "knee deep in snow"
Monkey Pump Cocktail: 1 part light rum 1 part orange liquer 1 part turpentine 1 table spoon of honey Add ingredients to a shaker 2/3 filled with ice. Shake for 30 seconds. Strain into a coupe glass. Top off with seawater. Garnish with gull feathers.
Okay but Wake was DEFINITELY hardcore gaslighting Winslow here. He doesn’t say “maybe you’re a figment of _MY_ imagination, maybe _I’M_ stark raving insane” he tries to get Winslow to think _HE_ is. I think the wording makes it pretty clear that’s what he’s doing.
He's telling the truth. The "hint" is so obvious though that we're led to believe we shouldn't take it at face value and that Wake is merely playing mind games. Kinda clever reverse psychology on Robert Eggers side
How long have we been on this rock? 5 weeks? 2 days? Help me to recollect! Sibling: Bruh we been here for 2 minutes.... LET NEPTUNE STRIKE YOU DEAD!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAARRRK!!!!!!! Sibling: .....
I heard about this movie somewhere, that it was really great. And I have been watching these out of context short scenes from the movie, and I gotta say that I am intrigued AND terrified at the same time
This scene really just confirmed for me what was happening as I watched it. At the time I honestly didn't know what to think of the madness, otherwise. But what a great film. Can't wait until the dvd release so I can watch a few more times to see what I missed the first viewing
At 0:45 when the scene cuts to Winslow staring at wake you can hear the sound of some type of wailing or screaming off in the distance similar to the Sirens from earlier. It's subtle but it gives you the feeling like strange happening and that this event they are going through is not just a normal occurrence. Something sinister is causing this.
I think this clip made me appreciate my self-isolation a bit more. At least I'm not stuck on a rock off the coast in foul weather, with an old wickey who's more than a bit off his rocker ...and no booze.
"Turpentine blended with grain alcohol was known as camphine or "burning fluid." It was used as a lamp fuel replacing whale oil until the arrival of kerosene ..."
The "Honey in Kerosene" thing is going to be a Mendela effect eventually. I don't know where it started and I don't know why so many people say it. The can clearly says "turpentine."
Monkey Pump sounds like a sketchy pre-workout drink mix you got from the guy at your local dungeon gym in the locker room where all the muscled oiled up bodybuilders are taking vitamin b shots
Joker makes Batman go crazy being stuck on an island with him for months in the middle of no where after they were both sentenced to imprisonment (cause no prison on earth is safe with them in it)
I just had this happen to me tonight. Couldn’t remember if I went to the store last Tuesday or the Tuesday before. Turns out it was the Tuesday before. Time and space are out the window during quarantine.
Everyone has their theories. But this is pretty much what sticks out the most to me. The kerosene or turpentine mixed with honey is what caused it all. Loss of mental stability thereby increasing paranoia in them. All of the sea tales and such that Wake knew were becoming almost to real to him and Winslow. Not to mention the isolation deteriorating the tolerance Winslow had.
It was up until this scene where i thought i had some idea of what was happening. But then the perception becomes completely warped and all the things i thought were happening just got thrown right out the window
@@SupremacySinema If they're drinking camphine, which is a mix of turpentine and ethanol that they used back in the day as a substitute for whale oil, then yeah, it would get them very drunk.
Yooo don't watch these clips! this movie is an amazing experience that you should really experience in theater (but if you're really impatient like me there are *other ways* to see it right now ;D)
Thomas dies in the end, enjoy your movie, he actually murdered winslow and took on his identity, but by murdering a seagull he damned him and his crew member
Honestly when Thomas told Winslow that he was probably a figment if his imagination and said what he was probably doing. I think that is how Winslow in reality died and this is his purgatory until he reached hell at the end.
I love how you can't tell if Wake is trully considering the possibility that he's just a figment of Tommy's imagination or if he's just talking bullshit to confuse Tommy.
You know you’re getting crazy when you start convincing your friend that YOU are a figment of HIS imagination.
