740202, Yeah, the shot that really stuck out to me was when Slow Drag Posted by Nodima, Sun Dec-27-20 10:43 PM
***spoilers*** I guess, for a 30+ year old play? ***spoilers***
Turns to the wall and takes his hat off after Levee kills Toledo while Cutler just kind of...looks at Levee and Toledo and then the lights fade.
I can imagine how powerful that is on stage with the echo of the theater and the fullness of the stage, the sudden silence and dropping of the lights, but the way it was shot it just felt like they faithfully adapted the play (assuming that's basically how the play is staged) but didn't consider how it'd present as a single camera compilation of reaction shots.
