What?? (spoilers)
I didn't understand half the motivations behind various scenarios in this movie. First off, why couldn't he call the cops and just have Plummer arrested? It would have been his word against a notorious criminal, there wouldn't have been any evidence at all and unless he somehow knew Plummer would get shot in the end he basically ended up doing that after all. And why were they so worried about Julie getting back when they were changing the locks? It would have taken more than a glance to recognize her in that get up and she probably wouldn't have even noticed. And why did he jump off the railing when he was carrying the body? Isn't the thing laying there just as suspicious as walking by with it? It just looked like a carpet anyway. And why didn't he just call the cops when he found the dead girl? He could have said he went out to get some cigarettes and came back and found her that way or something. That would have been a lot easier. I feel like the whole plot of the movie was a series of problems that weren't really problems. The ending is him sicking the cops on Plummer's character which he could have just as easily done right after he called.
