“I knew we’d survive all this millennium nonsense…. Guess we’ll have to settle for Blondie if we want Rapture any time soon. In After, we have a woman with Tourette’s dealing with a murder’s aftermath, an unusual gift from a deceased sister, an eldest sister lobbying for her own deliverance, a man and his cat meeting post mortem, the consequences of a smile, and a re-enactment of a bittersweet ending.”
