We dance on the edge of destruction
‘Tears should have been shed when the blood was running out of our veins. It’s too late. We can only learn how to live again.’
- TYPE: 1x1
- LOCATION - TIME SET UP: At first, Paris - Post WWII
- CHARACTERS: Simon Dreyfus - 19 [Eddie Redmayne] → passive, creative, artistic, idealist, dreamer, adaptable, naive, avoids social situations, (book) smart, nervous, tactless, lost. James ‘Jim’ Emerson - 24-28 [Hugh Dancy] → cynic, immature, dominant, competitive, bold, leader, honest, cold, futureless, street smart, pretending, adventurous, risk taking, lost
Quite obviously, the war changed them both, pushing Simon more into himself, his own loneliness and multiplicating hundred times what he used to feel. On the other hand, Jim used to be outgoing, bold and completely different, but the war made him grow colder. Of course, these things can be (and will be discussed, probably), and if you have any question or would like help building the before, I’m definitely here to help.
