the_dala at 09:49pm on 19/11/2003Okay, I lied.
It's just...the fabulousness cannot be believed.
Lex.
Lionel.
Clark.
Michael Rosenbaum deserves an Emmy for this episode. That was one of the most powerful television performances I've ever seen. Right now the only thing I can think to compare it to is SMG's "I'm sixteen" rant in "Prophecy Girl." I mean, just...I was gaping.
John Glover...as usual there are no words for his acting ability, but tonight, it was especially concentrated. I'd shower him with awards too.
It seems that Tom Welling has learned how to act again. He broke my heart several times this ep (not as many as Lex, though).
God, it was beautiful. The show was actually beautiful.
I can't even process all the Clex. It was too powerful and saddening for me to squee over it as I normally do, because I saw this as the very last we'll see of it in this form.
I did miss Rutger Hauer. But it's okay. The new guy seemed to exude a ceratin Rutger Hauer-ness.
Even in her three (?) scenes, AM managed to fire up the screen. When she and Clark and Lex were all onscreen together, it was...overpowering.
Plus. Lana. Trampled by a horse. Seriously fucked up, but in a good way.
This ep not only made up for the past two crappy ones, but for all the crappy ones of the past. It even manages, somehow, to kind of make up for the last season of "Buffy." I don't know how, exactly, but that's how I feel.
I can't even watch crap "Angel" now, I'm so fully sucked into "Smallville." After caring so deeply for the characters in "Smallville" tonight, due entirely to the great acting and writing, it feels...wrong to try and generate a semi-interest in "Angel."
I dearly wish I had taped this one.
