Originally posted by mcaldo: I am wondering about the title and the shirt. Is he a baywatcher pre-emptively keeping her from venturing in the water by means of seduction? Surely the tone of the sea and the not too summerly outfit of the passers-by kind of divide the scene in two. The sheltered safety of the beach and the gray, moody sea. Or perhaps I am overthinking, still wonder about the tile though :) |
Here is how I interpret the scene... A young couple sitting and enjoying the beach and each other, and then they see an old couple walking in front of them, together, but separate, along the same beach. Romance is probably long gone, but they are still together... Would not they be thinking about their own future together? What if this couple is the vision of themselves some 30-40 years later? ...And the waterpolo shirt is just a shirt, I don't think it is relevant for the story, at last in my interpretation of it :) |
