The book Fareed is reading on the bus is about adventurers made mute, only able to communicate their story via tarot car arrangement. Here are some Themes I have deluded myself into noticing.
"The Tower" (Catastrophe, horror, tragedy) there are LOTS. of towers. Some collapsing. I'm including the lighthouse as a Tower. "Disaster, my son" etc. Hell I will include Al-Shiraf Tower. Maybe it'll fall down too.
"The Sun" (vitality, optimism, enthusiasm) not very common ground to tread in our gothic romance, but a lot of weight seems to be put on Daniel and Armand as Daywalkers (thinking of that shot of Daniel as a giant head coming out of the ceiling) and this one leads a bit inTO—
"The Chariot" (ambition, drive, strength of will) and Armand. The Salamander drawing of Armand being hit by a bus followed by Armand compelling Larry to jump in front of the train. Armand is the driving force of SOMETHING. (ALSO also see the origin of the name Arun/Aruna)
ALL THE TABLE SETTINGS THAT HAVE WAY TOO MANY GOD DAMN C U P S FOR THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE SITTING THERE???
the number eight? The eight of what, hell if I know.
The upside down shots being "reversed" or "inverted", which changes the meaning of what's being depicted to an opposite.
Armand's machetes on the wall the somethingth of swords?
Tell em if you see more I must study the Angles
