THE FINAL CUT
Robin Williams, Mira Sorvino, Jim Caviezel

"Every moment of your life recorded. Would you live it differently?"

Zoe Implant, Eye Tech

Robin Williams in a serious role always creeps me out. In this film, he plays a cutter. A person who pieces together memories of a person's entire life after he dies. Through modern technology known as the Zoe implant, a tiny microchip records everything from the moment you are born to your last day on earth. It is an excellent way to remember your precious memories. Only thing is he decides which scene in your life to be included and which ones to erase forever. So it is a question of immortality, people you leave behind get to remember you by these scenes simply by plopping it into their TV. It is rather a freaky concept, sort of playing God and that creeped me out.
