Abstract: The film Knives Out uses a classical detective framework as its vehicle, embedding political metaphors and social conflicts within its continuously twisting plot. From the perspective of structural semiotics, this paper interprets the deep meanings and symbolic elements within the film through the dynamic relationship between signifier and signified. By examining the narrative techniques and narrative symbols in Knives Out, the paper analyzes the underlying meanings of various representative symbols in the film. Through the analysis and critique of these symbols, it further explores the cultural habits and metaphors present in real social environments.
