What is the significance of the post-it notes in The Machinist *spoilers*?

Posted by admin on February 8th, 2010 and filed under post it notes | 1 Comment »

1. I understand that the car accident was at 1:30 but what about all the random numbers he puts on his bathroom wall? 1263, 121, 147, 138, 134, 119. The locker next to his was #121… same number on post-it note. Is this significant?

2. What about the licence plate? His white truck was NRC 347 and the Red Firebird was 743 CRN. Which one is the real lisence plate?

3. Where did he get the money to buy a firebird?

You can over analyze that movie for ever and ever. 743 CRN is the reverse of NRC 347. I think in dreams everygthing written is backwards.

Honestly I didnt’ care much for over interpretation, I just thought it was one of the bets performances I’ve ever seen in a movie that wasn’t even released in big theaters.
