The color balancing and split screens in this season really seem to be an homage to 1970s crime dramas, and really helps to root the season in 1979. The color balancing is a lot like "Dog Day Afternoon", and the split screens were common in police, crime, and exploitation flicks from the era, and would feel "hip" and "modern" for 1975, but were about to become "dated" and "cheesy" by about 1981. The filmmaking seems like it's from the Jimmy Carter era, as does the licensed parts of the soundtrack.
Bokeen Woodbine is so incredible in this season. Simultaneously menacing and charming. I first took note of him on Saving Grace, where he held his own on screen with Holly Hunter, and now he's one of my favorite 'that guys', who I love to see pop up in anything.
And Kirsten Dunst's performance is so good too. She's really hit a new level of her acting after Melancholia.
Yes! She was fantastic. It’s a bit heartbreaking that she lost to Lady Gaga’s okay performance in an okay season of American Horror Story.
I wish Jean Smart got more love - she is amazing in everything she does
@@kelly9876 Didn't she just win an Emmy?
I’m so hyped to watch this series again through your eyes. It’s easily one of the best ever and dreadfully underrated. So glad you’re loving it and happy to officially be a patreon member! Be peaceful, my guy! ✌️
Hell yes! Glad to have ya on the journey
A small fun fact: Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons (the couple that kills Rye and dispose of his body), met on set, started dating, and are now married and have two kids. I love it! ❤️
Mikes speech when he got pulled over by hank on that back road was something special. One of those epic character moments that really highlight him as a whole.
I loved season one, but I really think season 2 edges it out just a bit for me as a favorite. Love revisiting it through your reactions. What a stacked cast this season too!
You finally met Mike Milligan and Hanzee Dent. 2 of my favorite characters in the series. 🔥
True detective, Fargo, Dark and Ozarks are some of the best.
Just found…and binged…your reactions to this show. (Have watched many of your movie reactions) Great insights and commentary.
Can I also just say as someone who has lived in Sioux Falls the last 15 yrs, some parts of town haven’t changed all that much. LOL
It's funny that you mentioned he reminded you of Matt Damon. I believe some fans called him Fat Damon when this aired.
8:46 One of his nicknames is actually "Meth Damon"
This is probably way late, but about the camera lenses used to shoot season 2 of Fargo - they actually got period cameras and lenses that were used to shoot big motion pictures from the 1970s, which was very expensive according to Hawley but the only way to get that true “1970s” look to the color balance.
Whew, when money matters. That’s incredible!
Love your eye for detail and your industry insights! They turn these fun reactions into a learning experience!
That guy who is speaking to his mom is from Burn Notice. Interesting to see him here.
You should check out Legion. Same showrunner as Fargo carrying over a lot of his sensibilities for visual style and use of soundtrack, shows off a good handful of shared actors (especially from this season of Fargo), and it takes place in the X-Men universe (albeit with no actual connections to the movies, the one character to appear in both is recast and there's no reference to any of those events). Probably the best and most artistically daring comic book adaptation I've ever seen, and Dan Stevens as David Haller puts in one of the greatest performances I've ever seen in a television lead.
Legion is an incredible.
There was a ruthless Woman Boss of a Borgata in the Naples/Napoli Camorra Mafia in Naples Italy sometime within the last 2 decades.
You have to check out Jacobs Ladder next!
You should look into Whiplash. great movie, big actors and the shots along with the intense themes are crazy
Another awesome reaction video James
Yo I just started watching your reactions to these movies and I really like your perspective on how you’re able to appreciate so many aspects of a movie and I really think you should react to a clockwork orange. In addition to being extremely balanced with how the structure of the story is, it’s an incredibly thought provoking narrative that will have you with mixed feelings on the main character and that will leave you with much to think about by the ending which is incredible btw
Happy holiday season man.
You mentioned Dark when talking about the split screen moments and thinking back to it, Dark had a similar colour palette with the dark green tones.
I'm excited to see your reaction to more moments with Hanzee on screen. I know you'll love it! ❤️
Bokeem Woodbine is my favorite character in all of Fargo. He’s on some Samuel Jackson level stuff.
15:30 was there no monologue? I guess it depends on the edition - in some editions there is a monologue heard from off-screen.
I love this season has multiple Vietnam vets in it! Being the son of one, my interest and respect goes up 1000% whenever I see one
3:34 That stare down between Mike and Dodd had to be one of the most badass scenes this season
Nice pfp chief
Season 3 was my favorite, I can’t wait for you to see Nikki Swango. Mary Elizabeth Winstead kills it, what a babe! Season 2 is really good as well. Enjoy….👍
You mentioned Matt Damon and Phil Seymour Hoffman which reminded me of Talented Mr. Ripley which is a film I think you would appreciate for many elements. If nothing else you'll find the cast impressive (Jude Law, Cate Blanchett, Gwyneth P)
I did search to see if you've reacted to it and didn't see one, so apologies if I missed it somehow. Cheers!
Season 1-3 of Fargo are all fire. I still take Season 1 though as my favorite. Enjoy this great show. Many say Season 2 is better but i just liked Season 1 a tiny bit better. Both are the best by far. Season 3 is next and Season 4 is the "worst" while still being pretty good.
YOU SHOULD SEE "SHUT EYE" ...
Mike Milligan is my favorite character in S2 and top 3 in whole series along with Malvo and Lester
We were all waiting for you to say “Matt Damon” lol.
😂😂😂
If you enjoyed the actor in this episode Jeffery Donovan and if you like the actor Bruce Campbell from the Evil Dead movies you should totally watch this awesome series a few months ago and just finished it, it's call BURN NOTICE. It was fantastic. Loved it so much. I guarantee you that you will love it. I watched it on Hulu.
I don't know if you've noticed it before, forgive me if you have, but in case you had not, I just wanted to let you know that Lou Solverson is the father of Molly from season 1. So when he had that scene with Malvo in his dinner, that scary case he was talking about, is basically what you are about to witness in this season. I just love how they connected the stories through that.
You really should continue on with the other 2 seasons. The first two were the best but i think you would really like the other two. You should also check out True detective season 3 (sure you have been told and requested this a lot). I personally think that was almost as good as season 1.
I was about to ask him to do season 3 of True Detective. I love it almost as much as season 1. Has the same feeling and atmosphere.
LEETSSSS GOOOOOOO
❤️❤️
I just noticed that the ending dialog from Jeff Wayne's.... was replace with some lame music.
I think this was on certain streaming services, that's too bad.
yeah, depending on version there is or isn't monologue in the end. Same for foreign translations
Definitely Damon Seymour Hoffman.
I've seen him him other stuff. 👍
Good reaction! Happy Holidays. Luke 2:7-14 "And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." PEACE TO YOU, JAMES!
Watch "utopia"
Anyone catch that flash of light as the camera panned-upwards from the butcher-shop, before the credits? UFO?? I thought the colours were similar.
Love your reaction vids, James - thank you!
you know that Lou (the main police officer) is Molly's father from season 1, right? and that the little girl is, well, Molly? I havent noticed you touching on that at all, so Im not sure if you missed that detail :p
He might'v mentioned it in the full uncut reaction.
So while we all know that the statement about true events isn't true. However this season and perticularily the events of episode one were directly inspired by the real life case of Chante Jawan Mallard. "In real life, in October 2001, Chante Jawan Mallard struck a 37-year-old homeless man, Gregory Glen Bigg. Like Culkin’s character, Biggs was lodged into the windshield, and like Dunst’s character, Mallard drove him home and parked her car in the garage with him still lodged in the windshield. Had she taken him to the hospital immediately, the homeless man would have survived (in fact, he apparently survived for several more hours after being lodged into the windshield).
Instead, the man died in her garage. She thereafter called some friends and they dumped the body in the park, later burning part of the car to disguise the evidence." The real incedent happened in Texas. I think this is as close as the movies or series ever gets to actual events, though I'm sure there were other criminal cases that inspired the writing.
This is a more balanced cast of characters than season 1. This is good, but it also means you lose the stand-out threat of Malvo.
Great villain in season 3, takes care of his teeth really well.
Like the original movie the Tv show I don’t know?
Tv show why?!
@@jamesbodnarchuk3322 tv show why not?
Dude since you love the second season so much
You'd love
The fourth one
It happens in the same time period of the second season
I couldn’t get into Dark. The plot moves too slow. I got a couple eps into season 2 and stopped. I feel like it should be right up my ally so I’ll have to revisit it in a few years.
Yeah, I started watching because of the great reviews. I watched 2 seasons, I believe and just lost interest. The romantic storyline didn’t work for me, at all.
@@mirasolbalaga5616 you got way farther than I did lol. I watched 1 episode but it just didn't grab me. I was thinking of giving it a second try.
now it's time for "Das Boot" but I think slowly you are just infected very with Hollywood,the only exception lately I think was "Amadeus" (and I don´t only think so because he came from the same corner where I come from).
Hello if you are going through disaster in 2019- 2021 and you lost home, lost food, lost family, kindly Reply and get some upfront payment for thanksgiving and you can also file a claim for Christmas support..
