Re: Horatio's Thread #5 - Will The Real Horatio Please Stand
Judging from all the comments on 'Dead Woman Walking', this sounds like to be yet another great H epi
which incidentally is next on the S1 dvd to watch, so am looking forward to that
You're welcome for the pics
zippy, glad you liked them. And yeah, I agree, H has the yummiest sideburns :devil:
Wew! Ever since I've started watching Miami and getting into H's character, I feel like a teenager all over again, gushing about this guy
:lol:
Now, the rest of my thoughts - I liked the ending of 'Forced Entry', where we see H interview the killer (who was also a victim of the deceased's crimes). It makes me wonder, did H feel sorry for the guy? I am sure he did. And I think Horatio felt it was at least a little hard (though he couldn't really show it whilst interviewing the kiler) for him to say 'you're going to jail anyway'. I think H understand why the killer did what he did, because I think that's part of H's character - he empathises with people, and not always the outright victims, but ultimately, knows the guy is still a murderer and must be arrested.
Perhaps H also feels bad for the guy because justice was never served to the rapist the first time round, and if it had been (definitely if it had been H working the case
), this would not have happened. Still, the guy's actions were inexcusable, despite his motives for killing, and H is right when he says to him 'justice is not for you to dispense'.
Here are the pics that I think tell all this:
Hmmm...
Justice is done
Reflection
I think you can tell quite a bit what this man's thinking by his facial expressions - I like the way the camera holds on his face like that, because I feel it emphasises to the audience that H is feeling stuff inside about what he has done/what's just happened, which I think is important for his character development.
