Spoiler - I thought Meek shot his landlady...


...on purpose, but it's presented as an accident here.

Nobody knows for sure. Patrick Pink just heard a bang. It's presented as a murder in the stage play.

Didn't the landlady's family complain about the play?

That's the impression that I had before watching, too. Nobody knows exactly and it COULD have happened the way it was shown.

Yes, it could have happened that way, but in all probability it didn't. I think the filmmakers were trying to keep Joe a semi-sympathetic character.

I think the film took liberties with the facts but no one knows how exactly the landlady got shot.

Its that man again!!
