After all, we are the images we create. Important show, important ending. Perhaps crucial. I can’t wait too see what’s next for Donald Glover.

Nobody commenting the great (imo) start of the final season? It’s sad to notice how little buzz sourrounds Atlanta nowadays.

Lalo is just so pleasant, lol. He does his things (you know, killing people, leading illegal activities, etc.) with such a warm smile!

Hahaha I swear I hadn’t even noticed, but I don’t feel particularly sorry for it. I’d never even heard of I’m Going Home, I’ll have to do my homework too!

I mean, 10 isn’t enough but, without a ranking:

– Homayoun Ershadi in Taste of Cherry
– Delphine Seyrig in Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce 1080 Bruxelles
– Zhao Tao in Ash Is Purest White
– Michael Piccoli in Dillinger is Dead
– Marcello Mastroianni in A Special Day (didn’t know which performance to pick, actually; he’s just the best)
– Ingrid Bergman in Journey to Italy (same as above)
– Ventura in Horse Money
– Monica Vitti in L’avventura
– Klaus Kinski in Aguirre, the Wrath of God
– Kim Min-hee in On the Beach at Night Alone

Simply put, the most life-affirming tv show I’ve ever seen.

Oh, Celia Imrie. What a great actress. And what a great season, and what a great show.

Ah. We live in a world where Marcello’s films are not screened in Cannes’ main competition. Tragic.

Interesting discussion. As your average white European male, the whole ep 4 storyline didn’t offend me or made me feel uncomfortable. If anything, I didn’t find it particularly interesting or insightful, and definitely less subtle than Atlanta’s usual standards.
Beside that, perhaps the gaze they applied to Europe isn’t as well-focused as their ability to capture dynamics which are typical of the American society. Racism and descrimination exist everywhere, but they do not manifest themselves in the same way.

Weakest season of the show so far, imo, which means it’s still really good. Episode 5 was my favourite so far.

It was a partial answer to the question of the topic. “All time best” is too much for sure, but I find him to be a terrific actor and was mentioning Annette as a proof of that – best performance of the past year, if you ask me, and one which should go down as a decade-best at least.

He did gave a decade-best performance in Annette, at least.

Reis, what a precious user you are; I repeatedly noticed this thread was missing and repeatedly forgot to make one.

Strong start (although perhaps not as strong as S2), but was that a surprise? This is an all time best series. Also, surprised to see it so low in Goldderby odds!

Hell no. Thanks Will for giving us some action in a particularly insulse ceremony, filled with terrible winners!
