She was never really a The Passenger anyway, just a person of interest since she ran off right after.

One reason I may have glommed on so quickly is that the protagonist spends much of the first half of the book in Wyoming.

I guess it hit me later than expected!! Thank you Netgalley for the pleasure of receiving this novel in exchange for an honest review. Beard of Moses-talk about major whiplash! I wanted to love this book so much. I debated between stars and settled in the middle. This is an extremely difficult book to review. At times, I felt it was jumbled, slow, and lacked character depth. But I also really liked this book and felt an The Passenger to finish it. I even found The Passenger thinking about it during the day when I wasn't reading. I have never experienced this while reading a book, so it has to earn points for that, right? This poor girl has so many names throughout the book. The book opens with a bang; she has just discovered her husband dead at the bottom of the stairs and claims to the reader that she didn't kill him. We have no The Passenger at the beginning whether she is a reliable narrator, but thus begins a long, choppy series of identities while sharing pieces of her past that she is running from with us. I did like the emails at the end of various chapters that gave us little morsels of her former life. I also really enjoyed Lisa Lutz's dry humor and satire sprinkled throughout the story it gave me feel good memories of The Spellman Files. I was a little disappointed that a The Passenger minor plot points were sort of forgotten and never given closure, but that was just a personal The Passenger peeve and not really anything relevant to the story. It felt a bit like filler fluff. Even though this book was extremely choppy and not as developed as I would have liked, I feel like it will be with me for awhile. I honestly can't stop The Passenger about it and am a bit sad to see "her" The Passenger. If you are on the fence, just go ahead and read it. I think it will be worth your time. For those Lisa Lutz fans keep in mind this is very different from her Spellman series! View all 22 comments. Jul The Passenger, RedemptionDenied rated it really liked it The Passengermysterysuspensethrillerconspiracy. Well, this turned out better than I thought it would. I'm not sure what to make of the ending. A woman, Tanya Dubois, finds her husband, Frank, dead at the bottom of the stairs. She attempts to resuscitate him; but it soon becomes evident that resurrection isn't in The Passenger repertoire. Can't fault her for trying, though. She doesn't know whether he accidentally fell down the stairs or, if someone helped him. All she knows is; she's innocent, and no one will believe her. So instead of alerting the aut Well, this turned out better than I thought it would. So instead of alerting the authorities, she decides her best course of action is to run. Initially, I thought she was being overly paranoid, but The Passenger soon transpires that it doesn't apply in her case. The Passenger makes contact with someone from her past, Mr. Oliver, and he provides her with a new identity and gives her some cash. So she transforms into Amelia Keen, for a while, but she soon needs to acquire a new identify. On her venture, she meets a woman, Blue, who works at May's Well Bar, and The Passenger two soon become friends. Blues' real name is Debra Maze. Anyway, this is where it gets interesting.

  • A L I E N: Engineers Written by Jon Spaihts
    A L I E N: Engineers Written by Jon Spaihts FADE IN: EXT. EARTH - DAY (12,000 B.C.) The world turns below us, vast and slow. A RUMBLE. A shadow sweeps over the land. We move with the shadow. We cast the shadow. Landscapes slide by. Reduced by altitude to abstractions: river deltas, forests and flood plains. A raw natural world. No trace of civilization. The shadow glides over mountains and glaciers. Across an ocean and a pale beach. Over lowland plain at the foot of a VOLCANIC MOUNTAIN it stops. EXT. LOWLAND PLAIN - DAY THREE FIGURES walk out of the shadow. They are men - and yet not men. Their skin is snow-white. Their features heavy and classical - as if Rodin’s Thinker had risen from his seat. Their smooth heads are earless and hairless. Their glittering eyes entirely black. Against the stark land their height is impossible to judge. They are ENGINEERS. Two of them are cloaked in dark robes of strange design. The third is naked. One of the cloaked Engineers opens a featureless black box: inside lies a cake of dark, sticky material. The naked one lifts the dark cake with ceremonial slowness. It hums and buzzes. Foams into iridescent spheres. He raises the seething cake to his mouth like the sacrament. BLACK SCARABS boil out of the dark material. Swarm over his lips. Glittering insects that chitter and bite. Under the swarm his lips melt away. A horrific vision of teeth, black blood, dissolving bone. They are devouring him. FLASH ON: A fevered glimpse of the microscopic: cells rupture and bleed.

  • Craig William Proudley Exegesis (PDF 985Kb)
    The Way of the Warrior Realising the Mythic Warrior-hero in the Action genre and in Australian Cinema By Craig Proudley (Bachelor of Screen Production, Griffith University) A feature film screenplay and exegesis submitted for the requirements for the award, Master of Fine Arts (Research) Principal Supervisor: Dr Sean Maher Faculty of Creative Industries Queensland University of Technology 2018 1 Keywords Screenwriting theory, feature film, character, warrior, genre, archetype, myth, structure, plot 2 Abstract This project utilises Creative Practice as research. It explores warrior-hero archetypes in the Action genre; creates and includes these archetypes in the original Australian screenplay Behold a Pale Horse; and discusses their influence on the screenplay’s development. Together, this creative project and accompanying exegesis seek to interrogate some of the inherent codes, tropes, and conventions associated with the Action genre. Moreover, the exegesis seeks to develop and deliberate on character archetypes derived from myth. It also explores their deep association with concepts and archetypical features within the Western genre—the origin of the Action genre. By using Creative Practice as research, the work consists of a detailed analysis of successful Australian films that have featured attributes of the warrior-hero. This practice-led examination is conceptually critiqued against the work of story theorists such as mythologist Joseph Campbell and screenwriting analyst John Truby. These critiques are used to highlight the nuances of the warrior-hero, their relationship to Campbell’s Hero’s Journey model, and the necessary components of this archetype’s deployment in a screenplay within the Action genre. Tested against the generic origins of the Western genre, and using the Australian Bush Myth as a cultural fabric, this analysis and critique is then deployed in the development of the Creative Practice.

  • Space Opera 'Prometheus' Is Overlong, Overblown and Overpriced
    Review: space opera 'Prometheus' is overlong, overblown and overpriced Prometheus Rating: June 8, 2012 Ridley Scott’s return to the franchise that made him a household name is a cosmic disappointment. “Prometheus,” a movie the makers stubbornly refuse to call a Kerry Brown - TM and © 2011 Twentieth Century Fox Film prequel to “Alien,” is in fact an obvious Corporation. All rights reserved. prequel to “Alien.” This is apparently Jim Dixon something like refusing to call a remake a Fanboys Examiner remake. Scott’s “Alien” was a taut, scary, | Follow: science fiction horror movie that was stoically uncompromising and focused as hell. “Prometheus” is long, slow and suffers from terminal identity crisis. To be fair, the Oscar-winning director is one of the finest craftsmen in modern cinema, and “Prometheus” is a spectacularly handsome production. But what it makes up for in dazzling visuals it more than lacks in cohesive narrative. After a thoroughly unnecessary prologue (that the movie never actually comes back to or explains), “Prometheus” takes us to Scotland in the late 21st century, where scientists Noomi Rapace (“The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo,” “The Girl Who Played With Fire,” “The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest”) and Logan Marshall-Green have just found the latest in a series of related cave paintings that make it absolutely clear that human evolution was influenced by advanced beings from another world. Seriously? This is your idea of science fiction creativity? More than forty years after “2001: A Space Odyssey” and we’re still retreading freaking “Chariots of the Gods?” But in fact Kubrick’s masterpiece “2001” casts a long shadow over this high-tech but unimaginative retread.
