I especially liked the two shot where both Scullys crossed paths. <br /><br />I don't think it says so but this episode was obviously filmed on the Queen Mary in Long Beach. I've toured that ship twice.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-65377041817002575202015-10-08T10:31:19.863-04:002015-10-08T10:31:19.863-04:00Chris,

It's of course also tons of fun to share this ep with a fellow shipper. :)Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13953652907115935895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-13327108583976080762015-10-05T02:05:07.615-04:002015-10-05T02:05:07.615-04:00Completely agree, Heather, that this is one of the...Completely agree, Heather, that this is one of the top episodes of all time. Technically it is a masterpiece that everyone involved in should be proud of. The long, long takes are simply magnificent and, as you say, add to the tension and the atmosphere of this episode. My favorite shot is the two Scullys passing each other in the hall. Anderson pulls off that visual stunt with aplomb.<br /><br />Many critics of this show dislike the beginning of season six. They find it too frivolous, too light. They believe the show strayed too far from its roots. Perhaps it did, but the episodes we are watching now spotlight what, for me, made the show so magnificent -- the relationship between Mulder and Scully.<br /><br />The relationship is the point of this episode. Scully will do anything to help; Mulder (even in 1939) knows that she is the one he can trust. Of course, it all comes to a head at the end. The kiss is everything we shippers have been waiting for -- and more. But even better is the final bit in the hospital:<br /><br />Mulder: "Scully, I love you."<br />Scully, rolling her eyes and walking away: "Oh, brother." Mulder reaches up to his face. It is tender from her right hook. The smile on his face just melts my heart.<br /><br />Great review of one of the greats!ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.com
