This has probably been covered, but when I tried a search, “joe” was too short a term. Anyway, I really don’t understand this movie.
What exactly happened at the end? How did Susan know what Joe Black wasn’t…Joe Black?
Help the confused…thanks in advance
Not sure I’m getting the question entirely, but…
If you’re asking how she knew he wasn’t the same guy anymore when he “came back”, well, all I can say is that she knew he was leaving, and she knew he wasn’t normal (she asked him, in a scene close to the end), so she probably just assumed that since he returned, it wasn’t “him” anymore. I think she knew he was Death, because she said “I wish you could have met my father” when her father had only been dead for a couple of minutes and there was no other way she could have known that.
This a sappy movie, meant to be touching and sentimental and all that nonsense…it wasn’t really meant to be analyzed. Take it at face value, cause there isn’t much beyond that.
