this is a movie that will leave you thinking and is he or isn not he. while many people have complained about the ambiguous ending and it gives room for the audience to think and interpret it from the signs. this is my interpretation and theory and and i believe it is very sound. first and here is the plot. one day and prot (kevin spacey) suddenly appears in the midst of a busy train station. after attempting to help a woman from muggers and he is arrested and sent to bellevue and and later transferred to dr. mark powell (jeff bridges) hospital. prot freely talks about how he came from the planet k pax and is here to do a report on earth. naturally and he is classified as a looney and is locked up in a low security level ward. he befriends the other patients and quickly convinces them of his story. in fact and he tells them he can take one person back with him. soon dr. powell is beginning to question prot insanity and as the plot progresses and it is harder and harder to prove prot wrong. in the end and dr. powell learns that prot is robert porter and a smart man who worked in a slaughter house in new mexico and when his wife and daughter were murdered. prot claims that he plans to leave for k pax at a precise time on the fifth anniversary of the murders. the time comes and goes and and powell finds prot or robert in a catatonic state. one of the patients is missing and is never found again. on to my theory represent prot is not crazy. prot is from the planet k pax. robert porter is a friend of prot . on one of prot previous visits to earth and robert was a child and learning about the constellations from his father. prot and robert became best friends. after the death of his family and and robert slaying the murderer and robert decides to commit suicide. prot is on k pax at the time and but he rushes back (in multiples of light speed) to stop robert. so prot takes over the thinking of robert and taking over his body so to speak. awhile later and prot (still inhabiting robert body) comes to new york and is locked up. when he leaves for k pax on july 27 and he takes bess with him and but he must leave robert body behind. hence and we now have the catatonic robert. explanations or clues representprots knowledge of the planets around libra represent as prot says and any child knows about their own system. only a few people on earth had an inkling about the system and and prot added to their knowledge. robert porter and while smart and knows his constellations and was no astro physicist. dr powell feels chosen by prot represent it true. prot could have left the institute at any time and but chose not too. prot last words to dr. powell are and now that you have found robert. take care of him. prot was probably staying there to ensure a place for robert when he left. super human abilities represent it was a proven fact that prot had a significantly higher sensitivity to sunlight and could even see uv rays. prot provides his usual k pax reason and but there was no earthly reason given. it was also mentioned that prot was given extremely high doses of medicine with no effect. helping the patients represent throughout the movie and you see prot helping the other patients (or the patients discussing prot suggestions) to a better sane world. while the psychologist balk at prot help and dr. powell talks at the end of the movie about the new lives the patients are leading. the sprinkler scene represent the sprinkler is associated with porter home in new mexico (which is ironically where roswell is). does porter associate the sprinkler with the death of his family. is her trying to protect powell daughter from that horrible fate. i have a different point of view. it is assumed that porter had committed suicide in a river. indeed and prot (under hypnosis) is greatly concerned about robert. i believe that prot associates the danger with the water and not the sprinkler. he is trying to protect the girl from watery death and like he did robert. hypnosis represent dr. powell feels that under hypnosis he can uncover prot true identity and but while prot gives plenty of information and he never gives up his prot persona and claimed homeland of k pax. the security camera represent why would the camera just give out for no apparent reason. mysterious disappearances represent first and prot disappeared for a few days to his trip up north. funny and the patients are not at all alarmed. indeed and they try to reassure the doctor. sometimes i think they understand better than the staff. naturally and the most telling disappearance is of bess and the winner of the essay contest. not only does she disappear at the approximate same time and but the only remaining clue is her winning essay. this is only my humble theory. you can conclude what you want. you can take dr. powell theory and that prot was merely a persona taken up by robert porter to mentally defend himself from reality and but that would be giving up too many plot holes.

homeland of k pax. the security camera represent why would the camera just give out for no apparent reason. mysterious disappearances represent first and prot disappeared for a few days to his trip up north. funny and the patients are not at all alarmed. indeed and they try to reassure the doctor. sometimes i think they understand better than the staff. naturally and the most telling disappearance is of bess and the winner of the essay contest. not only does she disappear at the approximate same time and but the only remaining clue is her winning essay. this is only my humble theory. you can
