From my notes again:
I wanted early Adam who can't speak to be next in line for the Dream. He appears at someone's door, then tries to grunt his way through the poem...
Nice human point of view starting with 1968, not just with Adam's more sympathetic portrayal (than I remember from the Universal "monster movie" that didn't emphasize this quite as much did it? I haven't seen it since I was a kid), that I must have identified with as a child mutant in suburbia, but also with the backstory of Ben Stokes becoming literate and his descendant becoming a professor, running circles around everyobody logically. Very validating and empowering message built into the foundations of the program. The outsiders really get it more than the powers that be.
Stokes in Ang's Dream... that's my kind of hero, right there! Smiting with his wits and smartassedness!
E Stokes has Petofi's pinky thing. I thought that was an acting choice, to make the Hand creepier.
I wrote this: "I think Thayer David just walked into the credits!" He should have stayed in character and just not given a damn.
The major life lesson of DS... you CAN tell a lie and get away with it forever! (Stokes never finds out about BC.)
What's that huge bony fan coming out of Trask's elbow?
Elliot Stokes=Doctor Who?
Trask: "You are the witch I've been seeking!" Cass should have said "Took you long enough bonehead!" I did.
Interesting, if BC were to start a heartfelt conversation with ECS as Naomi.
Tower Room smaller inside than out. Dr Who really is around.
Nicholas Blair!
I had to creep through NBs big entrance to find the Caption This! capture where Roger vomits into Nick's hat, or so I made it out to be.
"I don't have little vices, Mr. Collins!"
NB looking for sign of Ang's existence... then sudden Angelique theme music, loud... Blair or Astredo looks up in response... and it stops when NB names the wrong place to find her. Only instance I know of, where the character can actually hear the background music!
In death, no one came along to disillusion Trask about his being a man of God... like, maybe.... God?! Where does Trask hang out? If not Heaven, has he stopped to think about why he's not there?
I'm missing a tape around this point, where NB interacts with Ang as Cassandra. Adam's well spoken suddenly. Tom Jennings pops into the story and gets bitten. More later.
