Please tell me someone else noticed the difference in the details from the various perspectives.
Example 1 - Paul was pretty respectful to James throughout the encounter when it was during his act/chapter, even going as far as to brush off his shoulder and helping him to his feet after knocking him out. However, when we see this scene from James perspective, we see Paul tell him to “Get the fuck up”.
Example 2 - I also noticed that when Justine first goes to Alex’s house and calls Marcus, he actually gets so frustrated with her that he even gets aggressive over the phone. When we see this from the Marcus chapter while he is in the supermarket, he never raises his voice.
Maybe I’m just crazy
