After the first three episodes Last of us It never ceases to spark conversations. For one reason or another, each chapter is followed by a plethora of reactions, interpretations, and assessments of what happened on the HBO series. Long long timethe most recent, did not escape this logic, and is curious: it could have been longer than what has been shown.

That’s how the screenwriter recognized him. Craig Mazin, who explained during an interview that there is a longer version of this episode. But he was abandoned, fearing that he would seem too strong to the viewer. Long long timein terms of emotions, looks unbeatable inside Last of us. Although Bill’s story (nikofferman) and Frank (Murray Bartlett) was recreated in this chapter, it is possible that he will be remembered for many years.

That’s when Craig Mazin’s words about duration take on a different meaning. Long long time lasted 1 hour 16 minutes. This will be the second longest chapter Last of us, after the first was 1 hour 21 minutes. It seems to be long enough, within the framework of the television format. However, another version of this episode, which will most likely never be known, is 45 minutes longer.

The Last of the Darkduration of the third chapter
and an anecdote by Craig Mazin

Director of “Long Time” Peter Hoare, who already has extensive experience behind the scenes in television projects. It was he, along with the screenwriter Tim Good, who composed his own version of the episode. It lasts two hours. When Craig Mazin found out about this, he changed his mind. However, he was encouraged to see it. In statements given Deadlineexplained the result of this review:

“When they sent it to me, I think it was almost two hours or so. Then I thought: ‘Oh it’s probably not good‘. I sat down to watch, “OK, I’ll watch the two-hour version of this episode. While I was doing this, I cried so much that at some point I said out loud: “Oh!” It hurt what I saw. I cried so much, it hurt so much, I thought, “Well, if these guys can do this to me, and I wrote this damn thing, then it can work well for other people.”

Bill in The Last of Us, in the chapter "A Long, Long Time".

It worked. Episode 3 rating Last of us it’s over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes. After hearing Craig Mazin’s reaction and seeing the final result, the question is pertinent:Why didn’t this two-hour version come out on HBO Max?? Mazin explained it in the above medium:

“We worked very hard to make it (to expose a longer version). But we knew that this two-hour montage could not be published. HBO was kind enough to let us expand a bit. I always want people to want more. However, I understand that this is a longer episode. What’s really interesting is that while I think it’s around 73 minutes, many people who have seen it say the hour flew by. So, I think it wasn’t just an hour. Advancing this experience is a true achievement. When I saw the footage of Peter and Tim, I thought:Wow, this touched my heart’“.
