The movie "Us" is a horror film directed by Jordan Peele that follows Adelaide Wilson, a wife and mother to two children who is haunted by an event in her childhood where she found a doppelganger of herself in a funhouse. The movies central metaphor of meeting a literal evil twin of oneself can be read as a commentary on race, but its also a pretty brilliant commentary on class divide. The Tethered, who are the doppelgangers, represent the oppressed and the above-ground counterparts represent the privileged). The movies ending is open to interpretation and can be read in many ways. The Tethered are the product of a failed government cloning experiment that hoped to control humans. The movies deeper meaning revolves around class divide, with the Tethered representing the oppressed and the above-ground counterparts representing the privileged. The movie constantly reminds its audience that America’s story is one of history perpetually being forgotten or overwritten.
