a study of physical intimacy within the terror // lonely - son lux
so i was watching this boiler room set by a DJ i really like called Lucia Lú, and i realized that there’s one song that uses a sample from The Terror’s first episode, specifically David Young’s death 😭😭😭😭
here’s the clip:
honestly goes so hard tho 😭😭😭
"When [Lawrence of Arabia] was in production, screenwriter Michael Wilson was not paying much attention to Lawrence's sexuality. Wilson was more concerned with the theme of colonialism versus nationalism, and Lawrence's scholastic pursuits. This clearly displeased Lean, who wanted to paint more of a controversial character study, albeit on a large canvas, than Wilson had so far achieved. As far as one can judge from Wilson's notes, Lean had two overriding concerns - Lawrence's sexual make-up, and the scene that he would film in Petra. As far as the former is concerned, Wilson noted that Lean had, revealingly, compared the Lawrence-Ali relationship to Brief Encounter, his 1945 film about an unconsummated love affair starring Trevor Howard and Celia Johnson." - Brief Encounters: Lesbians and Gays in British Cinema 1930 – 1971 by Stephen Bourne

it's almost like he knows this moment will become ironic two episodes later when Crozier orders him to throw Silna off the ship
Little, inside:
Do you think he ever forgave himself for asking Franklin to stay during the hunt for Tuunbaq?
I will probably make another one
Edit: i did
