Half Lives has a tiny bit and Frobisher does have a crush on Eva for a few days. Altough, I thought the love of his life that Frobisher was talking about in his last letter was himself.

I'm pretty sure the islanders are meant to be a mix of Hawaiian and Korean replicants. The tribe's worship of Sonmi implies that after her manifesto is published eventually the clones really do get sent to Hawaii as a reward for completing their sevice. Or that the clones get their freedom and go to Hawaii themselves.

I thought they were a mix of native Hawaiians and Asian. They worship Somni, and remember the replicants were supposed to go to Hawaii once they finished their service. Originally that was a lie, but I assumed since the islanders know about Sonmi, that after her death exultation became real.

If they really wantd to do an experimental "the same actor will be used for the same soul", I'd rather they went for it full hog and have Berry be Frobisher and Sonmi too.

I think it could have made a really good 12 episode miniseries. It would have been interesting for each story to have a different director.

Berry looks like a good choice for Meronym, but part of Luisa's story is that she's a struggling young reporter looking for her first big break.

One of the things that sucks about the whole "actors playing multiple roles" idea is that there you lose two good roles for a young Asian actor and a young (possibly I'd have to look at it again, but I think) Hispanic actress just to have big names.

Another article said Berry is also playing Luisa, despite not being the right race and 20 years too old for the role. I think the film makers decided everyone was too stupid to unerstand the narratives. Instead of having the scar to indicate the connection, they decided to just use the same actors.
