Little Town, It's a Quiet Virtual World.... Well, maybe not. Allen takes us on the journey of Belle, the story about a girl who pretends to be someone else online, which is all kinds of appropriate in these times we live in. According to Allen, there are some elements of "tale as old as time" within this movie, and I guess that's a point we'll reach eventually even with virtual stuff. And that's our lot for this week. See you all next Monday. -Stig Høgset.
