New Interview in which Robin talks about Looking Glass and working with Nicolas Cage, published by Film School Rejects Robin Tunney cannot believe she gets to act alongside Nicolas Cage. To hear her tell it, titans like Robert De Niro have nothing on the man who drowned misery in Leaving Las Vegas and overshadowed James Bond in The Rock. Frequent readers of Film School Rejects already know this. If you have not been consuming Chris Coffel’s weekly excursions into The Tao of Cage, then you’ve simply been doing life wrong. Cage is a major presence in cinema, and every film he has blessed is worth your attention. Fellow actors are scrambling over themselves to work with him, and to study him. Tunney rearranged her life to make it happen. Looking Glass, from director Tim Hunter (River’s Edge), is a ruthless little thriller. After a couple loses their child to an unnamed tragedy, they uproot themselves from their safe and knowable surroundings to rediscover purpose as motel propriet...
Honestly enjoyed every single episode so far this season. If it continues this trend in the 2nd half, then it has the potential to be the best since Season 1 (and I love them all!)
ReplyDeleteThis was a very hard decision. The 3 standouts are 'Devil's Cherry', 'Red Dawn' and 'Red Sails in the Sunset', all of which are amongst the shows best ever episodes for different reasons. In the end, I went for 'Devil's Cherry'.
Also an honourable mention to 'Blood Feud', which I felt was so perfectly crafted and different.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to choose but I picked "Devil's Cherry". It was funny and sad and Jisbon-ny lol
ReplyDeleteIt was also nice to meet Jane's daughter. I also loved "Red Sails In The Sunset" ! It was an amazing episode with Jane/Lorelei and the RJ arc !!
This season has been great so far! I think that, after Season 1, this might be the best as a whole!
ReplyDeleteIn the end, I've decided for "Devil's Cherry", too. It was original, it has funny moments, but with a main bittersweet feeling about it. I especially loved the end of the episode, I'm always amazed by how the right music can make a scene even more beautiful.
But I can't forget to mention "Red Dawn". I'm happy they gave us a chance to know how it all began, and also "If It Bleeds, It Leads", because it's the beginning of a Lisbon's arc I was waiting since a long time to happen, it gaves Robin great material to work on for her character :)
"Red Sails in The Sunset" was like a movie, it was beautiful and probably the best work Simon did directing.
I've liked each season better than the last, and this one could continue the trend! I picked Devil's Cherry, but I loved Red Sails, Crimson Ticket, and Red Dawn too. And Bleeds for Robin.
