Yes. Absolutely.
The symbolic representation of the toy's missing eye matches not only with Gus, but also with Gale. I find breaking bad close to American beauty, a relatively far more detailed canvas where one can keep spotting visceral observations like this and still dig for more. I am instantly reminded of Walt's brief injury in his right eye cavity courtesy Mike.

One of the most stunning images from bb is when the gasoline tank explodes in S3 E01. Cranston directed that episode and the explosion happens from within 60 feet and those guys didnt FLINCH. That take was an one time take, Hell hollywood beat that.

As usual the cinematography is stunning!!!

**kid-glove** · 11th August 2012, 06:56 PM

They're cropped, isn't BB more about (& VG in favour of) the wider aspect ratio..

Rian Johnson slow alienation of WW in the domestic sequences, up until the act. Post-Skyler's Pool act, they're never in harmony within the frame. Extreme close-up of the bareness and muted calmness of WW, the suggestion of violence, that 'thin red line'.

The episode book-ends this flagrant visual agitation with Skyler releasing the puff of smoke on to his half of the frame. And him alone in his room, the bomb is ticking..

I love KG2. KG1, most of what you posted did not make sense to me since I don't really care for BB. Its great, best ever, granted.

Reducing MM to just a character study wasn't what I was hinting at. 'Far Away Places' (remember the LSD/Road/Personal life trips of Roger/Don/Peggy?) for example is the kind of shite I am talking about. Everything was just unbelievably awesome in that episode. And you can't really box Mad Men into a certain 'style'. I mean I never expected they would do something like the Far Away Places ever. Just swept me off my feat.
