Taylor's Actual Interest
Am i the only one who believe Taylor was interest in Alex more than it appears. There are signs of his interest all over the start of the movie.
First, he usually sits near him. Telling him you wont find it in there. Find what? Find a place to stay? Find a place in Australia? Find girls? Or find Him?
Than when Taylor says I'm so hungry, i could eat my own arse Alex jumps in a says Lets go halves Taylor doesnt only find this funny. But he looks at him. Actually gives him those eyes. As if in his crazy mind. He thinks Alex is flirting. Or purposing a sexually act. Unintentionally. To this point Taylor did'nt know about his GF.
Than he checks his phone. Which is really weird. But what kind of people check your phone. ??? Not to sound to stereotyped. Girlfriends....
From there first meeting he becomes attached. To Alex.... No one else....
Than when there on the beach. Taylor watches Alex the whole time. He even does cartwheels in front of him. His showing off. His not even interested in Ingrid. Not one bit. His interested in Alex..... Why would he watch him?
Than he gets rid of Ingrid. We dont know how. He just did.
In the tent. All he could hear was sophie. Most guys would have listened to hear. This is a girl orgasm. If you could hear him than it would be weird. But he reacts in jealously. We assume his jealous of Sophie. But what if his jealous of Alex. It makes sense.....
Than in the deleted scenes. The guy that was with the big girl. He approaches him and Taylor attacks him. But in the most sexually passionate way. He pushes him. Saying Dint talk, dont talk, dont talk His face is inches from his lips. He rubs his face with his hands. He lingers on his chest when he leaves. The only thing he says Leave me alone Leave me alone or i'll go though you to get the fat girl? Leave me alone i'm after Alex. Leave me alone (The queer fantasies) OK that's a bit of a stretch. But use you imagination....
Than when Alex collapes on the desert. He walks up to him and strokes his neck and back. Again his passionatly touching him. His comforting him. He trying to take what his.
These are all assumptions and i could be wrong. I know the director changed the script to make it the way he wanted. Do you think maybe the writer wanted to create a homosexual pyhco? That's why the story falls so miserably. He went in is own direction. What could of the ending really been about?
There's a lot to Taylor we dont know. But, am i the only one who sees a lot of under toned gay interest. A lot of my friends who seen this movie felt the say. They said at first they thought Taylor was gay. So did i.
Maybe Taylor sleeping with Sophie was another way of getting back at Alex. His finally revenge. If he couldn't have Alex than no one could.
Although in the final car seen he says stuff like Alex found out about us Maybe this was the directors input. Or maybe cause he was so crazy he did'nt know what he wanted.
Did anyone else notice the gay undertones? Cause they are every where? I wonder what the film would really have been like if they stayed true to the script.......
