[Show spoiler]the shot at the end of the scene where Sammy's watching his parents tell his sisters about their pending divorce. He's sitting to the side of the room, distant and observing this emotional family drama that he knew was coming for a long time now. The scene ends with a shot of the room with a mirror showing Sammy shooting the scene, as the only way he's able to deal with the moments is to imagine how he would shoot the scene for a film - a scene we just actually witnessed. Fantastic storytelling in that moment, wordlessly giving insight into the main character's psyche.

Perfectly put!

and I loved it. The cinematography is magical on this one and it captures Kaminskis work perfectly. Just perfect through and through.

And despite being minimal I enjoyed the documentaries we got for this one too, very touching to hear about Spielberg making this one.

I used to be the kind of person that would laugh a lot. Someone would say something stupid and I'd laugh. I'd be watching some crap on TV and you can bet your ass I'd be laughing. Someone could be telling me a story about their most sincere hopes and dreams and I'd probably just laugh.

But life is hard. It takes its toll. These days? I don't laugh at a goddamn thing. Barely even crack a smile. Got a joke to tell? Tell it to someone else. Seriously.

That said, there's an exception to every rule and I think I could watch the final scene of this movie at least 20 times in a row and it would get a laugh out of me each time. What a way to end a film.

A fitting final appearance. Glad it was in such a fantastic film too.

Both David Lynch and Judd Hirsch made the most of the little screentime they had in this movie.
