Firewatch (2016)

I can see Charlotte Haze standing on these stairs…

…and Humbert standing in the doorway with his bags.

The piazza.

Some street view shots.

The famous backyard where our beloved Dolores Haze sunbathed and read magazines and stole my heart.

AND JUST—

There's even their own comments about it and it's so funny wait:

Many The Secret History fans are wondering about why Henry would commit suicide and while several explanations have been given, after my recent reread of the book I started contemplating more and moret whether Henry was suicidal all along.

“Henry had a bad accident when he was a little boy,” he said. “Got hit by a car or something and nearly died. He was out of school for a couple years, had tutors and stuff, but for a long time he couldn’t do much but lie in bed and read. I guess he was one of those kids who can read at college level when they’re about two years old.”

“Hit by a car?”

“I think that’s what it was. Can’t think what else it could’ve been. He doesn’t like to talk about it.” He lowered his voice. “Know the way he parts his hair, so it falls over the right eye? That’s because there’s a scar there. Almost lost the eye, can’t see out of it too good. And the stiff way he walks, sort of a limp. Not that it matters, he’s strong as an ox. I don’t know what he did, lift weights or what, but he certainly built himself back up again. A regular Teddy Roosevelt, overcoming obstacles and all. You got to admire him for it.”

The only mention of Henry’s  accident comes from an unreliable source; Bunny who is reciting a story he’s been told without even being clear on the details or he could be even withholding information.

So what if this was not an accident. What if, instead of just getting hit by a car, young Henry stepped in front of the car?  This is pure speculation of course but it only seems logical to me for several reasons.
