Don't think i would feel comfortable Talking to someone like that. I don't know, i would Have never done that. James: Then do me a favor and make me some scrambled eggs.Īfter this exchange Simon then explains his reaction to the way James spoke to the Waitress and James responds: James: Well, do you still Have eggs here? Waitress: Because it Says so on the menu. Waitress: we don't serve breakfast in the evening. Simon: I'll just have a.Coke and a bagel. James only exists in his mind, where we see two people in the movie is where his condition shows through.
He sees James as the man he wants to be as he does and says things that he wishes he could. Putting it simply, the movie is shot through the mind of Simon. And I can see the type of man I want to be versus the type of man I actually am and I know that I'm doing it but I'm incapable of what needs to be done. Like, like you could push your hands straight through me if you wanted to. It's like I'm permanently outside myself. He makes a point that "Darth Vader is in all of us and I remember that every time I shower" which he makes a reference to how people feel about ghost stories and that they can either be the literal (as in there may be a vampire) or the psychological (that there could be vampire like tendencies that are within us) that can be attributed to how Simon sees the doppelgänger and is almost the thoughts and actions of what James would not feel or believe that he can do/say. The comedy is that his concern is of no bother to anyone else. Richard makes a point that Simon’s concerns over his doppelgänger do not seem to concern others and that is an unusual that they are not bothered. There is also an interview he did on the Guardian website that might shed a little light on his ideas. The Wiki page seems to have quite a bit of detail on this Wikipedia page and as it is based on the novella The Double by Fyodor Dostoyevsky and adapted by Richard Ayoade there is a good chance that just like Submarine (2010) it may be a little "out there".
