this is a fun question, i guess. i don’t want to appear stupid, i’m just really autistic.
in one of the scenes, the dark-haired antagonist tells the older vicar to tell him how to kill the were-rabbit, but he slips up and says “him”
SPOILER
to show that he knows it’s wallace
when the antagonist catches himself and says he meant “it”, the vicar raises an eyebrow at him. I don’t mean to appear stupid, i just have no one to talk about random stuff like this with and want other perspectives on character body language :]
I think it reveals that the antagonist is more used to hunting humans than animals, and that referring to the target as an “it” takes a bit of getting used to.
For the movie it might help make the stakes seem a bit higher, underlining that this is no ordinary hunt.
But also of course it hints that he know the identity. Especially so maybe when he feels the need to correct himself - the vicar gets the feeling something is off.
ah yes, thank you!! it’s this!!
