I am very confused at the scene when Margarita was given the clear liquid to drink. She said she felt no trace of intoxication, but rather she felt refreshed and grew increasingly hungry. As she continued drinking the liquid, the fires in the room grew bigger and brighter. Was she poisoned? Naively intoxicated? And could this be similar to, if not the same as, the liquid that Ivan was injected with while in the insane asylum? I thought it peculiar and interesting that the liquid gave her a sort of high, rather than a depressant. I have several questions about the liquid, but I could quite possibly be overthinking it all.
I commented on Brannen's!
No, I agree! Why does this liquid have one effect on Margarita but not the same on Ivan if it is the same thing.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I was also confused by the effects of this liquid and what it was supposed to be/mean/tell us.
