The most important thing in this scene for me, though, is how despite their differences in opinion and the frequent heated moments in the conversation, there are many times when it becomes obvious that the two love each other very much. For example, the way Walter kneels beside his mother's chair and touches her hand. Despite their poor lifestyle and personal differences, the bond that ties these two together is a strong one.

What a great scene to analyze! I really enjoyed the part you chose. I agree. The set and props work well with the time period they are trying to depict. The two actors work extremely well together. I agree with you about the phrasing and timing. They play off one another in great ways. This is a great clip that helps get a great sense of who these characters are and what they stand for.
ReplyDeleteNice job inferring things about the characters from the props. That is a huge asset drama has that other forms of literature do not have. The use of those props isn't always easy to discern though! I also thought you dug in pretty deep and got to the meat of the scene, especially in regards to the inter-character relations.
