Looking at this open ending with a good fantasy, maybe John arrived on Earth 2 and saw his wife and children alive and decided not to bother, and let go of his hatred, and went to Rhoda there, hoping that he had successfully finished reading MIT's She can go to Earth One to help herself there, maybe John will end up with Rhoda in the end. And the setting of the old man in the school may just be to let the heroine look away, because she also hopes that if the hero forgives herself, she will not go to Earth 2.

    Is the ending a redemption restart or another tragedy? If there really is another "me" on another earth, is that a wise choice? PS heroine is so beautiful~ (¯﹃¯)

    It's okay, independent and fresh concept, but I don't like this kind of small production

Another Earth quotes

  • Rhoda Williams: You know that story of the Russian cosmonaut? So, the cosmonaut, He's the first man ever to go into space. Right? The Russians beat the Americans. So he goes up in this big spaceship, but the only habitable part of it's very small. So the cosmonaut's in there, and he's got this portal window, and he's looking out of it, and he sees the curvature of the Earth for the first time. I mean, the first man to ever look at the planet he's from. And he's lost in that moment. And all of a sudden this strange ticking... Begins coming out of the dashboard. Rips out the control panel, right? Takes out his tools. Trying to find the sound, trying to stop the sound. But he can't find it. He can't stop it. It keeps going. Few hours into this, begins to feel like torture. A few days go by with this sound, and he knows that this small sound... will break him. He'll lose his mind. What's he gonna do? He's up in space, alone, in a space closet. He's got 25 days left to go... with this sound. So the cosmonaut decides... the only way to save his sanity... is to fall in love with this sound. So he closes his eyes... and he goes into his imagination, and then he opens them. He doesn't hear ticking anymore. He hears music. And he spends the sailing through space in total bliss... and peace.

  • DJ Flava: Just imagine that you're asleep, and then you wake. You're not sure where you are. You're not sure if anyone else is around. What would you probably do first? You would likely look around and say, "Hello? Hello?". You're attempting to find "am I alone?". We - here on Earth - would like to know.
