Hannibal 2x12 & 2x13 Thoughts
Jun. 21st, 2014 03:54 pmI watched the final two episodes of Hannibal season two. Not entirely sure why now; I've been listening to the AfterBuzz podcast reviews of season two and just found myself going 'why not'. I figured I could try and watch/see if I could handle the violence/gore/potential embarresment squick which is what kept me from watching from the beginning even though I wanted to.
The thing that stuck out most was how the show was shot/directed. It's very - stationary? I mean, at least in the two episodes I watched, we mostly get 'two people talking in a room' cut to 'two people talking in a room, one of them moves slightly!' cut to 'three people talking' etc etc. It's not a very active show, there's not a lot of movement. The most that I saw was in the finale's final 15 minutes or so. Lots of movement in that sequence but everything else is very contained. I found that very interesting. Definitely very different from anything else I've watched.
