And youve since stated that Annie is Elijahs protector, teacher, mother, lover and friend.
That reunion scene really does have all those roles on display, doesnt it?
I dont know how Ryan did it.
All that kind of imagery and reflection, I just dont know how he did it.
The thing that I keep thinking about is that Smokes mojo bag worked.
Her love for him is also a source of her power and her magic.
Thats 100% how I read it.
He has no one left.
He doesnt have his brother, he doesnt have his partner, he doesnt have his baby.
Two brothers return to their hometown in the Jim Crow-era South seeking a fresh start, only to find that an even greater evil, including the Ku Klux Klan, has taken root. Michael B. Jordan stars as twins in this vampire thriller directed by Ryan Coogler, blending supernatural horror with historical tension.
So what would be the point in continuing her protection?
Theres also a bit of guilt there, because why does it work for him and no one else?
Despite his belief in and desire for power and control, the cards were always stacked against him.
