The Fall (2021)

1 race, 6 months, 1 broken ank

The Fall

Jake, a professional athlete (at county level) runs in a school race with some “awesome running”. In a scene deemed too emotional for the wider public, Jake falls over dramatically and breaks his ank. It is unclear what happened when filming this scene, just that something strange and paranormal occurred, thus the film was cut. In another mysterious scene, in the medical room, Jake tells his PE teacher that he's really upset because he lost the race to be told in a sadistic manner that he can't run for another 6 months and he'll just have to suck it up. Some claim that the shot of Jake’s feet are to pay homage to Quentin Tarantino and others claim something more serious happened, either way early viewers claimed to feel nauseous. Then, 6 months later Jake runs again and in a Christopher Nolan-Inception way, it ends with us never knowing if he won the race, however this is unconfirmed and rumors suggests the results of the race are so shocking, it was cut to protect audiences.
