#devil's double

Eni Voraformia (Devil's Double): Fleeing his home after his mother stabbed him, Eni runs into Jay, a shapeshifting dragon. Since his mother's sicced some knights to 'retrieve' him, he takes the chance and tags along with the wanted criminal, especially since Jay took the form of the Glass Princess for funsies. Now if Eni can keep his own connection to that very missing princess secret as long as possible, just long enough to escape somewhere his immortal queen of a mother can't find him...

Why I like this dude: that's right, fuckers! that's my OC! he's transgender. he's a total mess. he doesn't have a finalized design. He used to be a total doormat, and now he's plotting matricide! what character development! i greatly enjoy making him suffer, and his garbage romance with jay, because jay is also a mess, and they make each other worse. forcing jay to protect him is his basically first selfish act and helping eni is jay's first selfless one so they have complimentary arcs <3 i like doing that it's fun

Cain (Pokemon Reborn): When the protagonist sets out on their pokemon journey in the Reborn region, they encounter Cain, a trainer looking for a fresh start. He's lighthearted, flirty, but fundamentally kind. As well as running away from his past. There's a reason he wants a fresh start, so please ignore his family as well as his status as the former poison type gym leader, and let's go beat up bad guys instead.

The Devil’s Double is a film that will shake and disturb you. You’ll want to turn away but it contains a performance by Dominic Cooper that’s so good, your eyes will be glued to the screen.

The film, based on the autobiographical book follows Latif Yahia (Dominic Cooper), an Iraqi soldier that is summoned by his childhood acquaintance, Uday Hussein (Dominic Cooper). The conversation goes something like this “Remember when kids used to say that we looked alike? Guess what. Now, you’re going to be my double. Think about it for ten minutes. When I come back, we’ll get you prepped for facial surgery.” If that wasn’t bad enough, Uday is a complete sociopath.

This is a profoundly disturbing movie. Uday is a murderer and a rapist. He gleefully tortures subjects that don’t please him. Worst of all, he enjoys it. He loves himself so much he is willing to do anything on the odd chance that it will make himself happier. Imagine having to pretend you’re this guy, being on the front line and never being able to do anything about it. A lot of the film’s appeal is that you have a sympathetic character that is stuck between a rock and a hard place. You desperately want Latif to get away but can't imagine how that could ever happen.

This is not an exploitation film. People are getting murdered, tortured and raped but the way this is shown is very tasteful. It’s more about the brief glimpses of violence before the camera turns away or the shots of the aftermath than long, extended scenes of people screaming in agony. It's about the stress and emotion that comes from Latif's situation. When there’s a chance of an assassination attempt, he’s the one on the front line. The more time passes, the more you and Latif are looking for a way out. You’re hoping that Uday will eventually become bored with this masquerade and dismiss Latif. Even better, that he might end up dead of a drug overdose or a successful assassination. What’s far more likely is that Uday will fly in a fit of rage or boredom and just put a bullet in the head of his new “friend”. In fact, you almost wish he would so that this torture would be over.

Dominic Cooper plays both Uday and Latif. It’s an incredible performance. Somehow he is able to look different (even though the two look nearly identical) just by doing something with his expressions or his eyes. You can always tell which character he is playing, it just takes you a couple of seconds to scan his face in order to pick up the clues. It’s one actor, playing two roles that interact with each other constantly. There’s a boxing scene where the two square off for a bit and I’m still scratching my head trying to figure out how they staged it all. While Cooper steals the show, everyone in this movie is great. His father, played by Nasser Memarzia, his only real friend Sarrab (played by Ludivine Sagnier) and in a small role that has very few lines, Philip Quast as Saddam Hussein and his double, a man that no longer has a real name, also manages to create two distinct characters. Everyone is given enough character development to feel genuine and moments that showcase their multiple layers. The fact that you do get to know these people makes it that much more tragic when you see their ultimate fate (well, except for Uday. It’s been a long time since I wanted a real-life person brutally maimed or murdered as much as him).

Movie Trailer : The Devil's Double 

To choose in todays collection is no fun at all. They trying to convince us with an action version of Hänsel & Gretel and the same old Jason Statham movies.

Does anyone know, is there any fanfiction in existence for the film "The Devil's Double?" 

I've looked everywhere, and I can't find even a hint of a story. 

I know with it being based on true events and how Latif and Uday are/were real people, we're kinda getting into a murky area...  I'm not looking for RPF, just Devil's Double fiction.
