This is my Oc Character Lesien…she is a close friend of Tiamat and was born Anurai. She is a very delicately built Na'vi. As jewelry she wears 3 piercings in her lower lip and in her right eyebrow… she is a very clever and skillful healer. And has a son named Veran.

Reminiscence often - too often - makes you recall great film noir and cerebral science fictions. It's a bit like if Sunset Boulevard or China Town were set inside Inception or Minority Report but never reached the level they should. Nevertheless, its mystery contains enough novel ingredients and its take on familiar elements are enough to carry you through it.
In the near future, Nick Bannister (Hugh Jackman) makes a living using technology that allows people to revisit their cherished memories with a clarity that’s comparable to traveling back in time. One day, Mae (Rebecca Ferguson) walks in with a simple request, catches his attention, becomes his lover, then his obsession. When she suddenly disappears, he feverishly searches for her, despite the objections of his assistant, “Watts” (Thandie Newton).
I like the way writer/director Lisa Joy takes the classic noir setting and reimagines it. This Miami is set after global warming has made daytime so uncomfortable everyone lives at night. Rising oceans mean the parts of the city that aren’t underwater are walled off with barriers so it feels perpetually claustrophobic. The streets are always wet, a war in the past has led to an even bigger gap between the rich and poor. There's widespread corruption and unscrupulous businessmen have scooped up the choice bits of dry land while the rest scrambles to stay above water. Nick is sort of a classic private detective (he even narrates the story) in that his business allows him to investigate the past. That’s all good. What’s lacking is that deep plunge into the idea of revisiting memories. Aside from a few aspects of the conclusion, there isn’t much reason for the futuristic stuff. Nothing’s said about stealing memories, implanting them, reality becoming blurred, how what we remember becomes distorted or could be altered, etc.
Another aspect that needed work was the relationship between Mae and Nick. We’re not supposed to really know how legitimate it is. Was she in love with him, or was it a ruse? We know what he believes but we have doubts - which is good. Certain elements of the intertwined plots are reasonably easy to unravel but this one is in that sweet spot. I’m not sure the obsession is 100% there, however. Maybe Jackman’s just too handsome to be haunted by her - no matter how ravishing she may be -, it’s too much of what we've seen before, or we needed to see more of them before she disappears for us to want them reunited at any cost. It isn’t necessarily the performances, it’s a gap between the script and the final product. On a more positive note, Lisa Joy handles the action scenes impressively. They’re chaotic in a way that makes them feel real but remain easy to follow.
Despite a well-constructed world and questions you want answered, Reminiscence is just short of where it wants to be. Still, it has enough to earn itself a mild recommendation. (August 18, 2021)

Working with Cliff Curtis also known as "Smiley" from Training Day was epic. He loved my tattoo work and showed me mad love on set. I filmed with him for weeks and he was a master in his craft.
