 "I think it's such an interesting idea and I would 100% go and watch that film as I like the fact that we get to watch the character deal with the guilt and the remorse he is feeling about what he has done, and I think that is very interesting. The only thing I would say is, if I heard the title, I wouldn't be sure whether I would want to watch it - but I would look into what the film was about and once I had heard the description I would 100% want to watch it. I also like the idea because the psychological aspects that the character goes through with the guilt, and especially since I love psychology! I also really like the fact that the argument isn't revealed to the audience as it makes us think into what could have caused a murder. And, I also like the fact that even though the character has done such an awful thing, due to the remorse, we get to watch when he turns himself into the police and reports the murder."  - Katy, 18, female 

 Prop List - Big knife for when Aaron is stabbing Leo  - Picture frame with photo of Leo and Aaron - Beer bottle for when Aaron is drinking  - Phone for when Aaron is listening to Leo's voicemail 

 Aaron's Costume - He is a teenage boy on his gap year so his clothes are casual and typical for his age  - He is only a year older than I am so I can use clothes already in my wardrobe  - He will wear a hoodie and jeans throughout the entire film. The hoodie is symbolic of how he is more reserved and introverted, wanting to hide away in his hood and baggy clothes - In the flashback the hoodie will be yellow in order to show how his life was brighter when Leo was alive and having fun with him - In the opening scene he will be wearing a red hoodie to match the blood and the anger he feels - For the rest of the film he will be wearing a black hoodie as he is filled with guilt and regret  Leo's Costume  - He is also a teenage boy and so his clothing is similar to Aaron's  - His colours would be more neutral so a blue or grey as he is innocent in this  Makeup  - I would use black eyeshadow under Aaron's eyes to demonstrate how tired he is as he's been...
