Re: Interview with Anne Billson

Don't forget that Mort is French for death. Perhaps a play on words.

Re: Nature Scenes in LTROI-Significance & Interpretation

TA (and JAL) wanted to portray as natural a setting as possible. Something unusual happening in THE REAL WORLD. What could be more 'real' than shots of flowers unfolding and snow falling? Utter familiarily coupled with strangeness.

Re: I've guess I've forgotten how

On the physical level perhaps he did, but there are many other instances in both the film and novel which show he still possessed the human spirit. Their race to the kiosk, play in the basement and Eli's concern for Hakan (even if misplaced), show Eli as being very much human. JAL gave us the hollo...

Re: Eli's Androgony

It probably took Elias some time to realize that he wasn't getting any older. He might have mentally become 12 by that time and didn't revise that back to 11.

Re: For the infected who have seen Akta Manniskor

One of my colleagues has just returned from Karkov (she's Ukranian) and says it's not so cold there, around zero (celsius) at the moment.
