RE: Episode 2 Discussion
Forgot to mention that I love the structure of the opening of this particular episode. From the re-cap that ramps up to Mani yelling at Harry, cut to the quiet H/R scene on the Mellennium (?) Bridge to the Gas Processing Plant. This is when it gets really good. That last section is so suspensefully paced, cutting quicker and quicker between the bored children and the panicking worker until she stops dead at the panel displaying "Failure Imminent." Cut to explosion aaaaannnnnnndddd...cue music! The explosion is at the same pitch as the opening chord of the title music.
For all the hand-held close-up camera work and artsy-fartsy shots (Harry & Jo scene) this is Alrick Riley at his best. He knows how to build suspense. Now cracks a noble heart. Good-night, sweet [Spooks]; And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest. ~Wm. Shakespeare, Hamlet |
