CATEGORY: MOVIES [Hidden plot related]
In part 46 we determined that Molly is Kevin's biological mother, and that she had been trying to hide this fact from Will. One thing we need to determine is why Molly would have engaged in such deception; there may be more going on than just that she has been cheating on Will with Dr. Bloom, and that she was once married to Bloom, i.e., it stands to reason that there might be some issue involving Kevin with regard to how she keeps her hair. In doing some more checking on the 'Molly Bloom' character from Ulysses, it is evident that some scholars consider there to be an underlying theme of incest in Joyce's novel.[a] In considering the applicability of this to Manhunter, what we need to determine is if there is any incest going on in our movie, and if so, who the participants are.
a. For example, in "The Triangle in James Joyce" in Patriarchy and Incest from Shakespeare to Joyce (University Press of Florida, 1998), author J.M. Ford states (p. 123) that "[I]t is in Ulysses (1921 [sic]) that [an] incest theme becomes significant."
