You don't seem to know that Morsell and Homb have been dating for a while after the shooting. It's just kind of a visceral disbelief that I feel when watching the characters as portrayed by them in P1. Can't explain it any better than that, unfortunately. It's just me, I know, but rarely do these impressions hit me with such force as this one did. (Still am, all these years later.) It isn't that either actor performed badly, really-just that their on-screen personae seemed much more likely to repel each other than to attract each other. They simply did not "click" at all and I was actually turned off by their performance. From the moment I saw the game when it was new I could not suspend my disbelief enough to overcome my aversion to the two of them as a couple as portrayed in P1. ) The one thing that has always grated on me about P1 is the fact that Stetler and Morsell had absolutely *zero* chemistry between them. Waltc: Had to write when I saw the thread. Because of the disparity in casting, P1 didn't have the punch it likely would have had if their relationship had started out as "compatible couple" devolving into madness and horror-instead of "unlikely couple", or "mismatched couple," etc. ) Glad I wasn't the only one who had that reaction to the two of them! Yes it did help later on, but still, even then it would have been more convincing (imo) if he'd been a complete stranger.As far as (the real) Stetler is concerned-yep, he would have been much more convincing as her husband in P1. I totally believed Don wanted to murder Adrienne.ĭavid Homb's Facebook profile: Thanks for the correction. I didn't feel any chemistry between them, but I think that actually helped the later part of the game. MisterSurrealist: I have to agree with you on that. I think he would've been more believable as Adrienne's husband. Paul Morgan Stetler was "Curtis Craig", the main character of P2. I totally believed Don wanted to murder Adrienne.īy the way, the actor who played Adrienne's husband in P1 is called DAVID HOMB.
