The only thing I would add to LastSurvivor’s beautiful review is the fact that the small bit of lost intensity in this linear cut over the original is not necessarily a bad thing. I like intense dramas but I still really had to work up the nerve to watch Gatos’s edit just because the original left such a lasting impression of being emotionally overwhelming.
I think this linear cut not only offers an alternate perspective for the story but also offers one that feels slightly less like being emotionally tortured, and that is not necessarily a bad thing. The ending almost feels uplifting despite the death involved, and that is definitely not something I ever remember feeling with the original cut.
This is really what fanediting is all about. A must-see for all.
