The deer in Netflix’s Leave the World Behind has a deeper meaning than expected.
Clay tells Amanda that seeing the pair is a"good omen"according to Mesoamerican mythology.
After they emerge from the bushes, Roses slowly approach them.
A fuck lot of deer.
A hundred, maybe more, right in the backyard.
It was really weird, Archie.
Do they go around in big groups like that?
Archie: Why the fuck would I know anything about deer?
If youre so worried about it, why dont you just ask Mom and Dad?
Rose: Like they would even care.
No one cares what I say.
Archie: Thats probably true.
Leave the World Behindis based on Rumaan Alam’s novel of the same name from 2020.
The book explains that the deer’s weird behavior is due to"A mass migration.
A disaster unfolding."
What Did the Cast & Director Say About the Deer?
Thats the trick about this movie.
Logic is not something that people necessarily care about.
Its emotional truths, and its tone, and this film has a nightmarish quality to it.
But theres also just a tonal quality about how nightmarish this scenario has become."
Its indicative of whats going on with the power and the lack of movement of people.
Leave the World Behindis now streaming on Netflix.
