I Am Legend – Alternative Ending

The BVG strike made Friedrichstraße station feel like I Am Legend in reverse. Thousands of people crammed in, herded by police in some bleak choreography. The film’s all about being alone in an empty world, and this was the opposite—everyone here at once, packed into the same suffocating moment. No air. No space. I kept thinking Will Smith’s character had it easy. At least he survived the alternative ending.
