Life of Pi Alternate Ending

Like many people, and Pi himself, I was hoping for that last backwards glance from Richard Parker to bring their relationship to a close, so I decided to do this simple video insertion of a fake newspaper clipping to feel like there's still a connection between the two and as a hint that the version with the tiger was the REAL story. Enjoy.

I like the idea that the book really leaves people to wonder which story is actually the real one. The human one may be more possible, but it doesn’t make it the exact answer, it could easily be the animal story instead

In the end its all about letting go but what hurts the most is not taking time to say a goodbye....damn!!
Rip Irfan khan...one of the India's most versatile actors ever.

The scene where the tiger vanished into the jungle is an allusion to moving forward aside from the past

[vcvlogs]

Rest in peace Irfan sir!!!.... It's a sad day today🖤🖤🖤🖤 we lost of the greatest actor in Bollywood as well as in Hollywood

The way he mentions the cat before the Parker lives on through his cat, and is a member of the family.

this movie really touched me like not many movies do! incredible film by Ang Lee.

It’s a shame the best and most critical line of the entire movie got cut in this clip. Pi asked, “Which story do you prefer?” He didn’t ask, “Which story do you believe?” Pi understands God at such a deep level and revealed it to the writer at that moment. Stellar screen writing.

I think that Richard parker when he stopped and looked into the jungle he was having a Flashback of him and pi, hence why at when the movie shows pi smiling and then Richard parker i think he was having a Flashback of the good memories before disapperaring :(

the scene 1:30 really gets me everytime. i love movies that make me feel that way.

There is no doubt that this is one of the best movies i have ever seen. Although pi lost his family and survived 227 days at sea with a tiger, he became very fond of richard parker although he never saw him as his friend. I love this movie very much it is highly recommended and It's based on real events 🫶🏻❤️

[Jass.Marttz]

1:31 The fact that this scene is made to expose that Richard Parker was, indeed, Pi all along, is acceptable. But, to think that this scene means that Richard Parker was real and he was reminding Pi to say goodbye, it tears me apart. 💔

[RochakJaankari]

Rest in peace irfaan sir.
Your memories will always be cherished

[ashtonbowers]

To me, the story with the Tiger is not beautiful because it's true, but because it's not true. Pi was able to let go of all the hurt that came from watching his family die and losing his innocence. The beauty of the story he tells matches the peace he feels.

That's what's amazing about this story. He experienced some of the worst pain a person can feel. But he didn't become cynical, he found peace and beauty anyway.

Did he said he has a cat in his family?
I wonder if he named his cat after the tiger

[rajatkhera]

RIP Irrfan sir..U will deeply be missed..This movie at the end brings tears in my eyes adding to the fact that u are no more with us. You were always my favourite.May ur soul rest in peace.

[mimilamathew]

@1:30 it always made me cry..still noe am crying cuz Richard parker actually said his goodbye 😩😭😭😭and he thanked him and loved a lot tooo 😍😭😭😭😭

[Jeffie]

Like the fact he named his son after his brother ❤️

[balthazarmayrena]

This is a better ending for me. Chills.

[JackassJunior]

Ah I wish we had this in the ending, just so we can see Richard Parker one last time. Love the ending we got though.
