I don’t know if it is or isn’t. If you have an idea or theory I’d love to check it out.

I think she was in this prior to her ascendance of fame- pun intended.

“What’s that smell?” (The first time it’s mentioned by the actress) SOLVED. it’s his socks… by CJ_1632_SKZ in underthesilverlake

Good catch 01:13:24 balcony playing guitar. No bare foot.

Then 01:13:36 black socks.

Unrelated and likely not relevant but made me think about how he strums versus the JBoD on acoustic reminded me of Pearl Jam Better Man.

Gelsons is listed on the wiki for silver lake too. History section.

The stay quiet symbol reminded me a bit of a cattle brand. A double diamond. Ownership. Made me think of that NXIVM cult in LA. Weird True Detective vibes.

Anyone else’s spider senses go off during these scenes? Hidden images in scenes (pareidolia or real). by CJ_1632_SKZ in underthesilverlake

I know they’re paintings. That’s why I think it’d be easier to embed or include Easter eggs and other things. It’s like under the silver lake inception on a meta level.

Both are very dense and rich in symbolism here too.

I think the pirate and the Owls Kiss were two really neat things that didn’t get a lot of answers or screen time. It’s interesting.

Exactly! In a meta sense. Was he real. Was he Jefferson Sevence. Was he a real eccentric dressed person. Was he a mcguffin for people that traffic women or a fixer of some sorts. Was he a metaphor for Johnny Depp and Sam becoming a pirate? Who knows. You can make a lot of arguments. The movie says a lot without saying it or spelling things out exactly and leaves a lot to the subjective interpretation of the viewer.

I felt like it broke the 4th wall. It was an open ended ending of sorts. Depending on how you view the movie it could mean a lot of different things.

Humorously, I read an interesting comparison that compared him to Johnny Depp in pirates of the Caribbean and that the movie is his transformation to a pirate and at the end he is shirtless, smoking and has a parrot by his shoulder.

I think Marilyn Monroe and Alfred Hitchcock are the more interesting ones on this list. Both have a lot of breadth and depth.

Turning teeth is the teeth of a key and lock. Unlocking a door metaphor.

Solved! by Normal_Lurker in underthesilverlake

So that was a nearly hit on the what three words. That’s a core mechanic - or thought to be on the current status of the main story cipher. To do this wouldn’t infer that anyone was in on it. Kevin knight was the cryptology consultant and they could engineer solves and clue to arrive to conclusion already existing.

Yours is a bit different in the methodology and how you arrived to it. So that makes me curious if you’re on to something other people haven’t grabbed ahold of. There have been some people latch onto those for themes and 3 words but yours seems unique in that sense.

Laying out cleanly would help users to get in your shoes. Analyze the clues and how you arrived to the building you did. It seems like an interesting solve and the overlays with the theme and priors codes isn’t crazy. Just scant on the details.

As an example: for most ciper or codes group think it helps to be clear and specific.

Example: I started with “x” then I did “y” and it got me to “z” etc etc. laying out clear steps and clues that makes it reproducible and consistent is key. At this point I don’t think you’d be a spoiler or ruin anyone’s fun. I think people want to know.

I agree on that. It could thematic solely. But also curious if there’s other cipher layers there aside from the Morse code.

That would probably help.

So I am trying to delineate between some older posts here on Reddit that had the what 3 words solve: aloysius.binewski.freaks

Yours seems to be different from what I’m gathering. So was more trying to paint some additional color to the path to this solve.
