context is that we’re making a short film and the character gets stabbed from behind
question is, title
when the peeps auditioned for the character, they all followed the same pattern, but with different executions:
stabbed, slow realization, falls down, and cries for help
I’m not sure if that’s correct/a plausible reaction, tbh
so, i ask here.
thank you!!

Not having been directly stabbed this is a bit removed, but every time I’ve been in a high-adrenaline situation and blood has been drawn, I didn’t notice right away. Usually I was going about my business afterwards and someone screamed because I was bleeding a lot and didn’t notice.
Also from a filmmaking perspective – it’s not always about what’s correct so much as what makes for a good movie. In a high-octane action scene someone might scream as they get their head sliced of despite that being physically impossible, but it makes for good cinema in some peoples’ eyes.
