WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN: Guilt. It’s A Killer.
Out, Out, Damn Spot! Guilt. It’s a Killer. That’s Eva. Scrubbing her nails. Scraping the red paint from her house’s exterior. She tries to wash it all off, but it never comes clean. The Red. Blood Red. That’s Eva’s world in Lynne Ramsey’s We Need to Talk About Kevin. Yes, Eva lives with the deep belief that she has “blood on her hands.” That it’s all her fault. There's no question where she will be in the afterlife. Hell.
