I really liked this! It was interesting to see how you motivate him killing his son, because, man, was that ever one part of the movie that could use some explanation. Well done!

Seconded! That was a really odd movie moment but you have made a lot of sense of it here.

Yes, I agree. What you've portrayed was compelling and felt truthful. Thanks

Thanks! :D
I'm really glad if it came across as compelling and true to the character!

Thank you!
I'm glad if it makes sense; I wasn't bothered so much by the violence of the scene as I was by the way it was presented. Tahar Rahim did his part splendidly, but I really think they should have expanded on it more.

Thank you!

I agree completely that, based on the acting and the plot, it could have been so much more. Instead they left it as a somewhat shallow act with only hints of what it represented.
