Wait a minute. This is unbelievable that you uncovered these sources with no strong hints from the director and screen writer Eggers? If so then WOW! You had to hit the nail on the head the source material Eggers used in writing his script. Please give us more and has Eggers ever seen your video and commented? Has Eggers discussed his sources?
I have never talked to Robert and I’m not sure if he’s ever seen this video, Ralph ineson who plays William in the movie has seen this video and liked it publicly on twitter. I would love to be able to meet rob and ask some questions, it actually may be essential for me making the part 2 video. I just don’t know how to reach out to him as I am only a simple farmer lol. Again this is only my interpretation of the film, the only person that truly knows the secrets and reasons behind them is rob himself. He has discussed some of his sources but NONE of the sources I have in this video. The reason I am able to follow his ideas to the point of creation is through the power of suggestion. Kind of like Mr. Hallorann and Danny Torrence in the shining, he is able to put vast amounts of information in my head without ever speaking it.
This is INSANE. AMAZING work dude, I cannot believe the connections you were able to draw completely independently. I can confidently say my life wouldve been worse off if I never saw this video, as I wouldve never had this whole extra huge layer of understanding for the complexity and richness of my favorite horror film, cause I never wouldve learned this stuff on my own. Thank you dude. Please make more!!
Thank you very much, it took me a few months of research, I still have many more secrets on this and the other Robert Eggers films, I’m working on lots of videos now hoping to have another one out before the end of the month
Dude, you just added a new creepy layer to this already macabre film. As a history nerd, learning about the real life connection to this film enhanced my opinion of it. I would like to see a part 2 to this.
Would like to see the second part to this vid!👍 The VVitch is one of my favorite folk horror films! Lokys/Lokis is another great folk horror that doesn't get talked about! It's in Polish but does have subtitles!
You know, if you think about it, The whole family ended up dead, all because of lies, which is why his Wife turned on him, and for not wanting to stick around, and be judged by others. As we see, Black Phillip is definitely the symbolism of Satan...and Satan had the Eldest Daughter picked out, for a reason. She was the only one that he wanted, out of the entire family! If you look at what happened with her, even before she "Signed the Book", after "Removing her Shift"(Her clothing, which she was all too willing to do, and then walking out to the Ceremony, that the other Witches were at, completely Sky-Clad (A word for nude, amongst Witches), she then gains power, like she'd never even dreamed of! There's a lot to think about here, but it just goes to prove, that if Satan has somebody targeted, he'll go to all lengths, in order to get what, and who, he wants! On the flip side of things, if God wants you for a specific reason, he, too, will go to all lengths to save you, and to fulfill, what he wants a person to do. The choice, therefore, is ours, as to who we follow...and as to what lies ahead for that person.
Excellent analysis. I found this movie really gripping for its psychological horror treatment of real history. I remember when it came out that a lot was made of the fact that Eggers used real texts from the period. It's interesting to know that his engagement with the texts was this deep.
It was pretty common to take in survivors after a raid, actually. When your enemies are trying to kill you off, taking in their women to freshen up your gene pool and contribute to your quality of life by adding an extra set of hands to your community is a huge morale victory. No need to accuse the girl of anything.
So there’s a real life suzanna Hutchinson and a fictional suzanna that the novel is based on. The book has a lot of secrets but the true history is that when suzanna came back to society she was supposedly practicing “witchcraft”, in the novel she struggles to come to terms with her “new” family and the betrayal of living amongst the killers of her “old” family, I think if you read the book ‘troubles daughter’ you might understand better what I’m getting at though I may not have spoke clearly, these were questions raised around suzanna in real life I personally am not accusing her of any wrongdoing of course, just speculating as to what this film may be trying say.
Thank you I definitely will, I’m working on a few videos now there’s just so much research it takes a while to put it all together, but don’t worry I’m not going anywhere 💪
Fantastic video on a great movie, I've read that many tribes at this time would take young women as captives and absorb them into thier society. Many of thiee peolpe had died from disease brought by the settlers and their numbers fell greatly. A fascinating and dark time in recent history
I am deep in research and I’m gunna get a computer and a microphone so I can make a good video. I also have a few other projects I’m working on that I have to get to first but I promise I will make a part 2 in the near future.
Absolutely 👍 I’m doing full second half of FMJ decode after the project I’m currently working on, it’s going to be insane, I can’t wait to share it with you
Fascinating. Thanks for sharing. I know that certain American tribes would certainly attack the homes of those they considered enemies, torture the men to death and kill older women, and small children whom they couldn't take with them, and take young women as, let's say prisoners, so that matches with the history you describe here.
@@Sinewmire thank you for watching 🙏 yes I have grown and learned a lot since making this video I apologize for any incomplete research there’s so much to this film it’s tough to piece it all together but it was fun to give it a shot,, check out the live video I posted on the channel for more info on ‘The VVitch’
It's well known that he drew the dialog from the movie from historical sources. Putting that dialog in context promised to be interesting. Demanding the conclusion that characters then HAD to be correlations for the historical speaker is a thin and unsupported assumption. If you're looking to turn the VVitch into the next Shining, this is the way, I suppose.
There has been more than one case of this. Taking in the female survivors and making them part of the tribe. Typically though I did not think they would kill the children as well but I could be wrong. I guess we will never know.
Along with the true and fictional stories of Susanna, There is the famous case of Mercy Lewis who somewhat mysteriously survived the Indian raid of Falmouth where her entire family was killed and all the townspeople were either killed or enslaved, Mercy Lewis then went to live in Salem village and became one of the most outspoken accusers of whitches in Salem during the hysteria, exactly the way mercy is portrayed in this movie.
"... free from corrupt institutions... believed the State corrupted the Church..." Hindsight is twenty/twenty, keep up on nuance and intellectual humility that our ancestors lacked so much
To have someone that preached Infant Baptism, as a prerequisite to going to Heaven, is mind-blowing! It is directly taken from Catholicism, which is an Abomination in itself! The Bible never supports Infant Baptism, at all! The Bible tells us the way to be Saved. Repentance (Which, upon being made aware that you have sinned, and being sorry and ashamed for said sins, and asking God's forgiveness), and being Baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins (The Water in a Water Baptism is symbolic of the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ, whereupon we are buried with him in Baptism, and, being raised out of the Water, is symbolic of being Resurrected by Jesus Christ, is the Biblical way, that the order of our own Personal Salvation is performed. This is all done, when a person has reached the age of accountability, and it is NEVER to be practiced, when a person is but an infant! As I said, Catholicism preaches, and requires, Infant Baptism...but it isn't in the Holy Bible! Therefore, I must conclude, that Mr. Roger Williams was right, on that count. However, his lying about things is, Scripturally Speaking, 100% Wrong...and we know that ALL Liars shall have their part in The Lake of Fire and Brimstone, forever and ever and ever..... For now: That's all, folks!
Very interesting stuff, it’s also true that Roger Williams founded the first baptist church congregation in the new world in his town of providence RI. You should read the book ‘decoding Roger Williams’ with your knowledge on the subject im sure you can make more sense of this whole thing better than I can.
Anglicanism requires infant baptism too, im a Christian but im annoyed i was baptised as an infant because my grandmother thought otherwise id go to hell because im illegitimate. And now the Anglican church will probably count me as part of their church forever.

Another fact is that one of the first cases of someone being accused of witchccraft was a 4 year old girl named Mercy
That was really interesting. I'm looking forward to what else you discovered.
Thank you friend I can’t wait to share more secrets with you

Props for your research I thought I was pretty well informed of the real world parallels and lore myself but this is next level !
You did a great job. Very informative. I love that movie too. So much so, I ordered a Black Philip T shirt.
Thank you for the kind words and support, this is the movie that re-ignited my love of film

This was great! The VVitch is one of my favorite movies as well. Can't wait for the next part!
This was very interesting.
Nice job
more please

"Taking their women to freshen up your gene pool"... interesting euphemism for enslavement and rape.
you have to do another video this is really interesting
Thank you I definitely will, I’m working on a few videos now there’s just so much research it takes a while to put it all together, but don’t worry I’m not going anywhere 💪
Instantly subscribe after this. Great video 🫡

I mean it’s all very simple and obvious, I’m not sure what your trying to say I don’t “demand” anything I’m just interpreting the film as it was made.
