Symbolism of a white dead horse? - spoilers below!!!
Ok So my partner and I had a debate over the White Horse that died.
He basically saw it as nothing...to him the dead horse was there because it slowed down the train causing Elena's anxiety carrying a wad of cash in public to a seedy neighborhood.
To Me however it represented so many things. On one hand...I see horses as very graceful, honorable creatures...so by Elena committing essentially murder she herself has lost that grace within her. Also possibly the white horse can represent Russia itself? At one point it was such a strong empire, and now where is it going?
Thoughts? Loved the film still thinking about it
Also money or no money Elena's dead beat family is going to stay as it was, money will not solve anything (only probably will make matters worse)
And the baby at the end is it the only hope for Russia or is he destined to fall in the same footsteps as Sasha and the family
