(Spoiler) So who's arms were found in the furnace?


If Vidocq was still alive, whose chard remains did they pull out of furnace at the beginning of the move?

reply

No one in particular. They could've burned a dead animal or something to get the same effect. Or someone could've died down there from all the inhaling of the fumes and they just used his body in Vidocq's place.

Question is, does it really matter? A movie doesn't have to explain every single little detail. Details that have no impact on the plot can be left to the audience's imagination to pick one. Another person's, an animal, a lot of cigar ashes (they probably wouldn't even know the difference back then) or whatever you want. Makes no difference here ;)

No,no... he the original poster didn't ask about the ashe, but about the burnt body that Vidocq and Nimier were examining at the beginning...

reply

That doesn't have anything to do with Vidocq being alive or not.

The burned body(s) were the men struck by the lightning

the charred bones etc were the two men hit by lightning who burned to death.
