In ‘Foe,’ who’s doing the dying?

LA Times  

Director Garth Davis acutely examines marriage by asking the question: Would you be willing to save humanity if it meant risking even the troubled relationship with the one you love? It’s what Henrietta and husband Junior face while living on a farm, the world around them crumbling as humans turn to an off-planet homestead. When the real Junior returns, his AI-counterpart is put to rest, vacuum-sealed in a bag like leftover meat, a moment that sees Hen flushed with grief. “The death scene is so powerful because he’s almost looking at a version of himself that he knows he’s denied and killed off himself,” Davis says.
