ชอบตอนจบของหนังเรื่อง GRANDMOTHERมากๆด้วยครับ โดยที่ไม่แน่ใจว่าเพราะอะไรกันแน่ ตอนแรกผมกลัวว่าหนังเรื่องนี้จะจบลงด้วยภาพของเด็กหญิงที่ยืนจังก้าอยู่กึ่งกลางกรอบประตูผี (หรืออะไรสักอย่างที่ดูคล้ายๆเสาประตูในฉากนั้น) ซึ่งจะทำให้หนังดูเหมือนกับจะบอกว่า "เด็กคืออนาคตที่เราต้องฟูมฟักต่อไป" แต่หนังกลับจบลงด้วยภาพเด็กหญิงคนนี้เดินลงเนินจนหายลับไปจากสายตา ซึ่งมันให้ความรู้สึกที่ดีมากๆ

One thing I like very much in CRAB TRAP is the problem with noise. One of the characters feels very annoyed with the noises caused by his neighbor. I can identify myself with this problem, because I have problems with noises in my apartment building, too. Fortunately, I can resolve these problems by talking directly with my various neighbors (who occupy five places around my room) to lessen the noises, and they respond positively.
