There was no sign of of our in the bedroom when the body was discovered with the flowers. The smell which the police clearly found so intense was due to George’s unsealed tomb, as Anne was still sealed in her tomb with the window open. George passed in the spare bedroom ‘Chambrette’ which was always referred to in the film when something was ‘lost’ in the film, as George was in his last hours/days. The bedroom had two doors which he sealed. On the passing of Anne, George had sealed the room to prevent the inhabitants of the building finding Anne before he passed. She was contemplating her future with mixed emotions from the guilt and void of her parents passing and it’s nature, but embracing the light in terms of her own life with the apartment, hence the fresh vision of the apartment. She had not previously been given a key and would always knock for entry via George. The daughter visiting the apartment was long after the death of Anne and George. His vision of her could have been her leading him to death, but I interpreted as him seeing her encouraging him to leave that his job is finished and he did right by her.
I did believe that George abandoned the apartment, I don’t think he died in his room. If the closing scene with the daughter comes after the opening scene when the landlord forces entry to escort the medical personel, then one would assume that the daughter had already been notified and no cause for confusion.
If it’s before the opening scene, and the daughter is the one to discover the apartment empty and the sealed door (we don’t see her discover it, but one assumes she would have), then one would assume that she would notify the landlord and escort him and the others into the apartment. What was confusing to me was whether that scene was meant chronologically to be before or after the opening scene of the film when the landlord and the medical personel discover Anne’s body. That was definitely their daughter who we met in a few scenes earlier. Finally, at the very end, who was the woman who entered the apartment and sat there staring? What was that all about?
