3. This image is from early on in the film and
is heavily suggesting that Juno and Paul
have a closer connection than just
friends. The film is already hinting that
Juno and Paul are having an affair and
this is finally confirmed near the end of
the film. This image also shows the
jealousy some women can have for what
other women have.
This image is taken from after Sarah has had
a full mental breakdown and has become
animalistic and in some ways more
dangerous than the crawlers. This image
shows Sarah when she has truly lost
everything, her daughter, her husband, her
closest friend and has just found out that
her husband was having an affair with her
friend.
