Last Dance

I know this dreamy lens can't apply to every episode but jenny's direction was just absolutely phenomenal. It could not have been more beautiful. The acting, the camerawork, the setting, lighting, costuming, EYE CONTACT, every last detail was perfect. This was undoubtedly the best episode we've ever gotten from this show and it will go down being what it's remembered for.

In an ideal world Jenny Han would have directed every episode. The first four episodes of this season haven't had emotional depth I'd hoped considering this is the final season. They felt like filler episodes, they contained context that was needed but nothing more. This episode? Cinema perfection. It speaks deeply and allows insight in a way that allows the audience to exist in that moment, to feel it. Christopher Briney, although new to the scene, is an underrated actor. He's someone I see becoming a household name. From the golden hue that's surrounds Belly in flashback scenes when viewing them from Conrad's perspective, to Christopher's way of expressing so much without any words, down to the song choices... This episode was everything and more, an absolute stand out from all three seasons.

The actor this man is becoming in front of our eyes is incredible. While he was overshadowing his costars with his talent and his range in every episode so far, here we got to see his full range in 67 minutes straight. I hope we get to see more of him on the big screen very soon, ranging from indie thrillers to big Hollywood productions. He deserves it.

This is by far the best episode of the season so far. No, not just of the season. I think this is the best episode of the series so far. Jenny's writing and directing was superb, and it elicited some of the best acting of the season as well. Jenny, please keep writing masterpieces, and please, please, please do more directing as well.

The writing and direction of this episode blew me away. This season has been a bit of a mess thus far, I was starting to lose interest in what happens with any if these characters. But then everything changed. The performances landed, and the emotional weight actually felt earned.

I really enjoyed Conrad's point of view and the music choices for each scene felt perfectly placed. If the rest of the season keeps up this momentum, we might just be in for a beautiful redemption arc not just for the characters, but for the show itself.
