Had to remind myself to breathe
Wow. Normally after enjoying a film or tv show, the day after watching is the most important time for me to fully make an opinion of what I had watched the day before. This episode was, and I mean this with no hyperbole, one of the best hours of media I have ever watched. The intensity, despair and raw emotions were potent from start to finish. The closest I could compare this episode to in terms of tone and quality would be Christopher Nolan's Interstellar. Superb acting from the cast, from top to bottom. Though James Marshden has taken a backseat (for obvious reasons) throughout this series, his acting really shone through. Sterling K. Brown truly is a master at emotional acting, particularly at his ability to show emotion without crying, and Julianne Nicholson's portrayal of Sinatra seems almost paradoxical; such a good antagonist without being "bad" or "evil".
