--the truth. The truth is that the first murder was murder, the murderer was Beth, and it was concealed by a professor, but the cause came from the words "you should try it" by the male pig's feet. Beth's murder, is this the butterfly effect? Is this not logical?

--logic. I'm afraid Beth didn't premeditate to kill her mother, so it seems to be just an accident, but there is a deep "background" behind the accident, that is, her needs and desires, under the "you should try it" of the male pig's feet. Excited, isn't that logical? The professor helps Beth cover up the crime, so he uses one after another to attract the attention of the male pig's feet and the police detective, but isn't it also using the logic of the Pythagorean theorem behind it?

--accidental. The luthier dies unexpectedly, and the teacher uses chance to design a series of murders that don't even exist. The male pig's foot accidentally came together with the nurse and the female, had feelings, did AI, surveyed, broke up... There are too many accidents and inevitable intertwined in life. What should we believe? Accidental or inevitable? The truth, the truth, how far is it from us?

    The Spanish director went to Oxford to make a tribute to the British murders that went hand in hand. The so-called tributes include Hitchcock's motif preference camera grammar and heroine (Anna Marcy has played The Murderer), Christie's escaping method ABC. The so-called "secret", while complaining that Yingmei is obsessed with extreme characters, but at the same time found the hot Watling to play the only moral in the film... But the professor betrayed the ending for the murderous story and the film director.

The Oxford Murders quotes

  • Arthur Seldom: There is no way of finding a single absolute truth, an irrefutable argument which might help answer the questions of mankind. Philosophy, therefore, is dead, because whereof we cannot speak, thereof we must be silent.

  • Arthur Seldom: Since man is incapable of reconciling mind and matter, he tends to confer some sort of entity on ideas because he cannot bear the notion that the purely abstract only exists in our brain. "The beauty and harmony of a snowflake" - how sweet. "The butterfly that flutters his wings and causes a hurricane on the other side of the world" - we've been hearing about that damn butterfly for decades, but who has been able to predict a single hurricane? Nobody! Tell me something. Where is the beauty and harmony in cancer? What makes a cell suddenly decide to turn itself into a killer, metastasis and destroy the rest of the cells in a healthy body? Does anybody know? No! Because we'd rather think of snowflakes and butterflies than of pain, war, or that book. Why? Because we need to think that life has meaning, that everything is governed by logic and not by mere chance. If I write 2 then 4 then 6, then we feel good because we know that next comes 8. We can foresee it. We are not in the hands of destiny. Unfortunately, however, this has nothing to do with truth. Don't you agree? This is only fear. Sad... but there you go.
