I wouldnbt call the end unpleasant, just powerful. I literally had tears streaming down my face, and I felt shaken and, well, traumatized for days. But I mean that in a good way! As a writer and filmmaker myself, Ibm in awe when someone can create that sort of effect. Kudos to the writers (Christian Divine & Jean-Luc Cano) and directors (Raoul Barbet & Michel Koch), and to Ashley Burch and Hannah Telle for outstanding voice performance (and mocap actors Serena de Mouroux and Gabrielle Hersh) And itbs wonderful to see a game, or any popular entertainment marketed at a general audience, about the friendship between two women. The developers struggled to find a distributor that would release it without changing the main characters to a man b they ended up with Square Enix, the Final Fantasy folks also behind the new Tomb Raider games, who were happy to have two female leads. And the effective use of music continues right up to the final scene. - -- www.gregorynormanbossert.com -- - -- www.suddensound.com -- ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V16 #1784 ****************************
