In this case 'understanding' is truly the boobyprize. One thing I'm sure of is, all the 'nay sayers' on here watched the entire movie and didn't turn it off...because, once you start watching, you can't stop. Spader is mesmerizing. So, too, most of the other actors. What Cronenberg is doing is making us look at our voyeur tendencies. How many people do you see whiz past an accident without looking? If everyone told the truth, were they to come upon one of these scenes in real life, they would watch. They may not like this fact, but to deny it is to negate themselves as living beings.
