If AA is late, she'll be even later if she hasn't taken notice! Lol.


Your instructions are not specific enough. 'Part of a collection' could mean anything. OVZ was kind enough to help, and I've found it now.

Sorry, supreme commander, you're quite right.....**sobs**


That's better, but as I keep reminding you, I'm not the SC, I only work for Her.

This is different to the book, but given it's told in the first person of someone us telling the story in the first person, it was going to be tricky to replicate. It's doing a decent job of it!

The score is very good. Really uses the time motif very well.

For me, it's one of those instances where the film is its own entity and works well.
