The other party is not a driver but a tank truck!?



There's a reason Spielberg was so particular about the last shot. This is because the scene that follows after the tank truck falls to the bottom of the valley contains the Arrival that Spielberg put into the work `` Duel ''.


The tanker truck rolls down the cliff, raising dust, and just when it finally comes to rest, the wheels that are still spinning gradually slow down, flicking off the branches they've caught. Drops of dark heavy oil dripped down. It was like blood seeping out from his steel body. Then, the wheels finally stop.

In other words, what the timid salesman played by Dennis Weaver encounters on the highway in the wilderness is not the truck driver himself, who repeatedly harasses and harasses him, but the tanker truck himself. It is a gigantic, evil monster whose motive and purpose remain unknown, but who suddenly transforms the peaceful lives of citizens into Inferno.
