The apparently friendly "good guys" family the boy meets at the end says "We've been following you". That stuck out to me, because several other times when the man and the boy confront scavengers/raiders the man demandingly shouts "Why are you following us?" at them, even though it doesn't really make sense. I think he maybe even says something to the effect that somebody is following them when they hear the dog sniffing around above them in the bunker. There was nothing to really indicate the black guy who takes their wagon, or the couple with the bow&arrow in the window, were following the man and the boy, they just came across them and wanted to rob them. Both times, the scavengers reject that they were following the man and the boy. The wagon-robber says "I wasn't following you man" or something, and the bow-lady says "I wasn't following you, you were following us!". I googled a bit this morning but didn't find anything about that pattern. Maybe it just speaks to everyone's paranoia in that world or something. But I just thought it was weird and sinister that the man essentially always is afraid of being tracked, and then the family at the end explicitly says they were tracking the pair.

Isn't it just the nature of a premise like that. Like not having food/rations would make people either hunters or gatherers/hunted in principle and then the film plays on paranoia at the same time.. hmm

And a good use of the 21st century security policies in a fiction work. And the Winter Soldier is so much more stylish than Red Skull. And Redford's classy as fuck.
