The ending of Leos Carax's Holy Motors left many audiences underwhelmed, but it actually says a lot about the movie's stance on humanity and identity.
Leos Carax’s Holy Motors is a wildly confusing movie with an even more confounding ending that leaves audiences baffled upon their first watch. The movie rejects the concept of a traditional narrative and instead opts for a series of interconnected stories that use their absurdist and eccentric plots to paint a wonderfully weird fairytale about the unpredictability and the superficiality of life. The main storyline follows a day in the life of Mr.
Holy Motors is a movie that deserved to win the Palme d’Or for its mature exploration of life and its varying stages. The ending might seem weird and nonsensical, but it’s actually a satirical comment from Carax about humanity’s pointless obsession with identity. Everybody wants to be known as one particular thing, but Carax poses that humans can’t be so simply defined.
By making Mr. Oscar such an unpredictable and unknowable character, Carax creates a much-needed distance between the audience and the narrative. It’s impossible for viewers to connect with Holy Motors' protagonist because he’s never being himself — and this is a huge strength for the movie. It draws attention away from the surface-level story, forcing audiences to think critically and objectively about the action of Mr. Oscar and how they’re relevant in the real world.
