But that is a valid, continuing service that that music - which is, in some cases, 80 or 90 years old - is rendering. And proving its own timelessness.
At the end of the film Val suggests there may be a way to rejoin the living, when he says, `Let`s see if we`re able to live among the living, walk among the living.`
A voice expressing emotion in a musical way moves on. It`s like the finale of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) - the world turns in on itself, as a universe unto itself, in the shape of one human being.
`m really proud of it. To me, it`s a movie about character behavior and the pecking order of the pack, as well as the central character`s massive survival guilt.
