missizzyAfter slogging through episode 68, I tore though the first two hours of episode 69. The resurrection scene was another one I'd seen a clip of already, but after the end of 68 got tears out of me last night, I needed the reassurance of seeing it again. Seeing both big moments for the second time, I was mostly struck by Laura Bailey's acting. Of course she wasn't the only one, and part of it was just how invested everyone involved had clearly gotten in their story and their characters, but the ease with which she deployed her craft was something else.
Having just watched the US Open final, my feelings about the pair of performances there were a little more mixed. The first two sets left me pretty dismayed, and while Theim and Zverev did play a lot of very impressive points, you do wish they hadn't fumbled things quite *that* much when it went down to the wire. But it'll probably be the most interesting men's final we have for a bit. After all, you know Rafael Nadal definitely will not be hitting too many reckless balls just because he's pissed off, especially not now.
