    I watched dementia in my own grandparents while I was in high school, later on in college I found the caretakers everywhere at the end of time. After the first listen, I was honestly unsure on how I felt about life and my own purpose in it, going back to it a couple months later... I had something else happen in my life, but the second listen... man, I actually feel alive for once. The reality of what time we have and the great unknown of life is interesting again. Keep up the great videos, it’s always fun to try to think outside the box while also living in our own moral box.

      Still, it put a thing or two about myself in perspective (I too tend to idealize people and fantasize about love stories, thinking I will end up alone and forgotten like the Janitor, thus neglecting the people surrounding me) and this podcast provides a nice widening of the horizon how to deal with it.

    The movie didn’t even start making me
    depressed until the end. The hopelessness of the last act was really sad to me because it just felt real. Even though it was still plastered with symbolism, the dark perspective it makes you view the world from can really fuck you up.

    If I may chime in with my own interpretation of the scratching. Animals scratch usually for two reasons. One reason is desperation. The other is the mark territory. I think that whatever made the scratches was trapped in the house and it knew that the basement was a way out. The basement itself could represent the whole plethora things from the lower Consciousness levels of the Mind to something that's repressed dark and cloudy.

    What I remember from my psych classes, the stage of moratorium is not good in itself. It is crucial for development as you need to explore your possibilities and options but constant moratorium results in halt of development as you do not commit to anything and continue exploring. I'm not saying it is bad, it is necessary for full development but I see it as something that might not be as positive as how I understand you picture it.

    Well at least I have a concrete image of why I hate myself, I’m a 19 yr old student and after listening to this interpretation I think I can safely say that the janitor is what I more than anything fear to be but I can see myself on the path to becoming without the knowledge of how to change course. Janitor being a metaphor for ending up alone with a job I hate with nothing to look forward to but my own fantasies

  • @plsarguewithme2665

    I listened to the entire album by caretaker way before watching the film, so it's such an amazing coincidence that you talked about these two works together because when I watched the film, it literally reminded me of the album which made me think that perhaps the film is related to dementia, aging, regrets and just memories in general. A lot of the film's scenes, i first thought, were about the janitor remembering his past and regretting about it cause a lot of the lines seemed to forshadow his present situation and the eventual suicide. But then the house scene kind of threw me off guard cause i didnt know if it was jake who projected himself to the girl or was it the other way around. Either way I'm so glad Kaufman was the one who adapted the film cause I don't think anyone could've done it any better

    I really agree on the point you‘re making at 25:39 about the fact that you can kind of feel 2 characters in the movie that control the way in which Jake is related to. A positive and negative (doubtful) one. It‘s pretty true to how low self-esteem actually feels like, when for example you talk to your friends & family about yourself and those two conflicting characters emanate from you onto and possess them. That causes them to want to say good things about you while they simultaneously feel doubtful internally. I think the movie does a brilliant job of portraying how our self-images get reflected in others.

    I have lately been listening to the Caretakers album a lot and I watched somebody play a game called "Forgotten", where you're old and basically how it is to live with Alzheimer's while you die of age and I have watched the movie just now.
    I don't know why I throw myself into this subject with full force, I'm just 17 män. Somebody should have done Inception to me later in life.. I don't want to suffer thinking about growing old and dying 24/7, it's depressing.
    Anyway I just left the movie and I feel kinda dazed, sad and depressed. I don't even like philosophy as a subject. Maybe others are completely in love with it, but I dread what it's pushing me towards, talking about this feels like it's pushing me towards an abyss, a spiral of sadness and as soon as I take a wrong step and fall, I won't come out of it again
