His wife Arlette (Molly Parker) inherited 100 acres of property outside Hemingford Home in rural Nebraska (\u201cthe middle,\u201d they call it, as in \u201cthe middle of nowhere\u201d) that Wilf covets. Nebraska is an \u201cequitable property\u201d state. Anything either spouse owned before they were married belongs to them and not to the couple. The land is hers to do with as she pleases. She wants Wilf to sell all of their property, including his own 80-odd adjacent acres, so they can move to Omaha, where she wants to open a dress shop. If he doesn\u2019t agree, she plans to divorce him and sell her parcel to the Farrington Livestock Company, who will use the property as a pig farm, which will ruin Wilf\u2019s freehold farm.<\/p>\n<p>According to Wilf, cities are for fools, and he convinces his son Henry of this, too. To Wilf, a man\u2019s pride is his land and his son, and if he doesn\u2019t have the land to pass on to his son what point is there in living? As Arlette becomes more insistent on selling, Wilf begins a campaign to bring Henry firmly into his camp. It\u2019s fairly easy: Henry is malleable, and he\u2019s sweet on Shannon, the archetypal girl next door. If Wilf and Arlette divorce, Arlette will take Henry to the city with her, and he\u2019ll never see Shannon again. Arlette can be shrewish, prone to saying unkind things even to her son, and it\u2019s clear that the couple no longer loves each other, if they ever did\u2014it was a shotgun wedding, apparently.<\/p>\n<p>Wilf acknowledges the presence of another man within, the \u201cconniving man,\u201d a whispering voice who lures a man into doing heinous things\u2014although in fact it\u2019s Wilf himself who is conniving. Thomas Jane plays Wilf with grim solemnity, clenching his jaw so hard that his teeth seem on the verge of shattering, expelling his few choice words in heavily accented growls.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"10866\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/why-did-it-have-to-be-rats-a-review-of-1922-by-bev-vincent\/1922-image-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?fit=960%2C401&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,401\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1922 image 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?fit=853%2C356&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10866\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?resize=853%2C356&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?resize=350%2C146&amp;ssl=1 350w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-2.png?resize=768%2C321&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve read <em>Mindhunter<\/em>, the book that gave rise to the current Netflix series about the origins of behavioral analysis in the FBI, you\u2019ll learn that one of the clues a spouse has devious plans with respect to his or her mate is a sudden change in behavior. In a case study in that book, a woman who has hired hitmen to kill her husband suddenly starts treating him kindly, making his breakfast and packing his lunch. In <em>1922<\/em>, having decided that the only solution to his problem is to murder Arlette, Wilf too undergoes a shift in behavior toward her. He claims he has changed his mind and will agree to her plan. She couldn\u2019t be happier. They celebrate.<\/p>\n<p>Hitchcock would probably have admired the murder scene. It is filmed with many angles and cuts, and very little visible violence, a la <em>Psycho<\/em>. But it\u2019s a messy affair, and Arlette does not die easily or quickly. \u201cMurder is sin,\u201d Wilf says in his 1930 confession letter, which forms the framing device of both the novella and the movie, \u201cMurder is damnation. But murder is also work.\u201d The worst sin he commits is in enlisting the assistance of Henry in his dirty deed. He would have been damned in any case, but by dragging his son into the murder, he is doomed beyond redemption.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"10865\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/why-did-it-have-to-be-rats-a-review-of-1922-by-bev-vincent\/1922-image-3-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?fit=1200%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1922 image 3\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?fit=853%2C569&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-10865\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?resize=853%2C569&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"569\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?resize=350%2C233&amp;ssl=1 350w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1922-image-3-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not one who generally notices a movie\u2019s score, but I did when watching <em>1922<\/em>. It was created by Mike Patton of the group Faith No More, and it is extremely effective in setting and modulating the mood. Much use is made of individual strings, plucking and squealing. They\u2019re almost sound effects rather than music, and I believe the film wouldn\u2019t have been nearly as effective without them.<\/p>\n<p>The story plays out more or less the same way it does in the novella, although the \u201cSweetheart Bandits\u201d story is somewhat abbreviated. The cinematography is terrific, evincing a pre-depression era when farmers could still borrow money to improve their property, even guys like Wilf who didn\u2019t have two quarters to rub together, let alone the $75 he needs to satisfy his neighbor when a problem occurs between them. The cast is solid and impressive, with Jane leading the charge. It\u2019s a perfect role for someone who doesn\u2019t always exhibit tremendous range. There\u2019s a lot going on inside Wilf that rarely comes out visibly.<\/p>\n<p>There are real rats in the story\u2014the one that bites Wilf on the hand when he\u2019s searching for money he thinks his wife might have hidden in the house, for example\u2014but many of the others are no doubt figments of Wilf\u2019s guilty conscience. They follow him everywhere, heralding his downward spiral. It\u2019s a cross between \u201cThe Monkey\u2019s Paw\u201d and \u201cThe Tell-tale Heart,\u201d where a man\u2019s wishes turn into a curse and his crime haunts him to his end of days.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t a fast-paced movie. It allows the sense of dread and doom to emerge slowly and organically. It probably won\u2019t appeal to everyone (especially anyone who has issues with rats doing bad things to people living or dead), but in the pantheon of adaptations of King\u2019s work, it is one of a select group that hews closely to the source material and delivers a vision on the screen of what King intended in his novella.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Did it Have To Be Rats?
