Smokes and Fire
Brown Eyes:
Good one Mikaela,
Yup, that photo seems very appropriate to the thread. Those cigs are certainly suggestive in numerous ways.
My question about the pic is sort of off topic... is that a true still from the film or is it another promo photo?
Mikaela:
I think it's probably a snippet that wasn't used directly - I think looks like a photo of the actual scene in the film in progress, from a slightly different angle. At any rate I believe it's close enough to the actual scene, and that both actors are in character - so IMO it's OK to use it in this thread.
LauraGigs:
Another potent (sorry) image to me is the positioning of the fire in the shot just prior to the first tent scene.
(Basically right in front of Ennis' groin area — a seething volcano of masculine energy about to be released? Or am I seeing too much/getting too explicit?)
Meryl:
I don't think you're off the mark, LauraGigs. Just look at the positioning of that coffee pot when Ennis is stretched out there. ;D
Mikaela:
Isn't that one of the behind-the-scenes things it would be - ahem - interesting to watch in a Collector's Edition DVD?
You know, Ang Lee and Rodrigo Prieto and Heath..... setting up camera angles, having Heath find exactly the right place and position... for the shot to look just like that. Must have taken some effort on all their parts after all. It's certainly far from a coincidence. ;)
