    Edward never actually appears in the primary world of the frame story. All scenes with either Edward or Tony are Susans' recollections and imaginings respectively. She is imagining Tony as Edward.

      She's probably right to do so. Edward's arc in his
      real
      life corresponds to Tony's fictional one. Edward loses a wife and child, and succeeds as an artist by getting his work published, while Tony suffers a symbolically similar blow and becomes a man by slaying his demons.

        Yeah, she is. He's written himself into his own story and this is stated directly in the flashback. My point is that the film follows Susan for the entirety. You are shown a 3rd Person objective view of Susan in the present, flashbacks which are presented by device as her recollections in the present, and her imagined visualization of the manuscript's narrative. There is no 3rd person objective view of Edward. The Edward presented to the audience is via Susan.

            Didn't her employee say she bought that some years back?

              Which painting? The one that spelled "REVENGE"? Was it ever mentioned? I don't recall.

                  Everyone keeps reading into this film and keep trying to make Gyllenhall the lead character Bit annoying.

                    Turns out the painting was actually bought by Susan, she just didn't remember.
