British actors are usually good at accents.

Except for American. They are often quite wrong on American accents.
So I accepted James Frecheville's Jack Nelson.
BUT… He's supposed to be Boston Irish for Christ's sake

S6 E2 - Jack Nelson

Blocking is the arrangement of the actors in film.
Jack is shown in the foreground so he looks absolutely giant and Tommy looks tiny.

Watching S1&2 for Sam Neil's Major Campbell.

Go ahead - say his name in that accent. It's fun.
Major Campbell thinks all a youse are scum.

Grace's lighting.

Just started a rewatch. Noticed that Grace almost always has a sort of glow shining on her. Much like Amy Adams and her hair.

Watching snooker on Youtube, the audience look like slobs.

Realized it's the contrast with the players. 😎

Reading about Flock cameras - watched Enemy of the State (1998)

D-Tony Scott. Music-Harry Gregson-Williams. Scary over 20 years ago.
For many years I could not watch Tony Scott - too frantic. Now I let the scenes just wash over me.

If there's 'no law in Deadwood'…

How are claims staked and building lots bought and sold?
Serious question.

Every time I watch Deadwood I'm entranced by Al's debauched visage.

That face tells of a lifetime of sin and degradation.

William was such a terrible actor I was glad when Milch killed him off.

And it gave the camp a reason to come together.

Love the indoor lighting

The night scenes with the yellow side-lighting.
They're just so gorgeous. You can pause at practically any moment, take a snap, and put a frame around it.

The make-up department!

These guys are amazing. Al's face after his stroke is a work of genius.
And think about the teeth - someone has to paint Elsworth's teeth every morning. And clean them off after shooting.

Violence -

Using his fists to beat Alma's dad would likely result in broken hands. The skull is harder than phalanges.
