Pirate Jet posted:Those first two shots are from a cut subplot about a crazed superfan of the Gordy show who is also implied to be a pedophile after Mary Jo, he happens to show up on set with a gun the same day as Gordy's attack and is the one who shoots Gordy dead. Yeah, for those who don't know Peele confirmed his assembly cut was over an hour longer than this one I wouldn't have been against more of this but as is it's perfect imo. Rewatching this in three hours with a friend, but my immediate thought is it may be my fav of his?

VROOM VROOM posted:and yeah what's up with the shoe Amidst all the chaos and horror on the set, young Steven Yeun sees between the dead lady and the crazed chimp a single shoe standing upright by itself. It could be seen as either a (bad) miracle given the circumstance it's literally standing out in, or a spectacle (one of many spectacles he tries surrounding himself with as an adult between latching on to show memorabilia, including it, or trying to profit off an alien he's seen often enough to know exists but not often enough to understand, let alone successfully trick himself into thinking he can control) It's part of the main, or at least one of the main, themes: just because something can be focused on doesn't mean you should, or that you'll learn the correct lesson from doing so David Ehrlich in his 4-star review posted:Why are we so eager to immortalize the worst images that our world is capable of producing, and what kind of awful power do we lend such tragedies by sanctifying them into spectacles that can play out over and over again?
