Conceptual improvements/advancements of edit over original:
DARK CITY, the amazing film directed by Alex Proyas, has always had a special place in my heart.
And while thinking about my next fan edit, I remembered the audio commentary, were Proyas reveals that the voice over at the beginning of the film was dictated upon by the studio. That’s all it took. Remixed by Jorge’s attempt is not to speed up the action (it’s already fast) but instead, to not give away too soon what the film is about. More mystery. Hope you enjoy.
