All about Buffy, very quickly

Episode by episode and I am already at the end of the season 2 of "Buffy the vampire slayer" and head-over-the-heels in love with it. It got under my skin :D

This season was wonderful all arond, but the most fabulous episodes for me were:

Killed by Death OMPH. So fabulously scary.

Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered So incredibly funny.

I have few little niggling things I must spill out ..But again, I must say that I love the show and the characters so ( these are just tiny things that don't spoil anything at all.. )

But there are many, many things that ( I loved very much in this season and among them: )

Atonement

Oh, it is wonderful. It is absolutely mine, very personal film.. My grandfathers (both) died in the WW2, not died actually but are "missing presumed dead" and my paternal grandmother starved to death in the occupied territories whist waiting for my grandfather to return. As I am getting older I find myself thinking more and more about their destiny, trying to imagine how it was.. Did they burn in a tank (and this is most likely as both of them were in tank troops). Or did they make their way to Nazi camps? Nobody will ever find out where they are..
My grandfather-in-law (who passed away some years ago) was there on the beaches of Dunkirk.. He was always telling the stories how he found his own brother whom he hadn't seen for 8 years there..

Oh, I am so sorry – I have gone reminiscing instead of writing any sense. :D The film is beautiful, exquisitely filmed with the interesting splits in the narrative and changes of POV. The musical score is outwardly, so tense and stirring and hauntingly romantic. Actors are fabulous, especially James McAvoy. :D I need to talk more about the storyline but may be in a separate , spoilery post. I'll just say that I can't stop thinking about it, I think I even dreamt of it..

But as unforgettable as romantic storyline was the most memorable impression from the film for me is the sight of the beaches of Dunkirk, thousands of British troops lost and waiting ..
