Also paid extra attention to the scene when Smoke and Annie reunite after the discussions it had in here. I think it's kept quite ambiguous exactly what they are to each other up until the point that Smoke asks why her magic didn't save their baby. Before that, I remember him calling her "baby" and "woman" one time each. That could, but doesn't necessarily, imply a sexual and romantic relationship. The conversation was very tense. Annie is talking about Smoke and Stack like some lil bad ass hooligans. She just seems more grown. I don't think you could really know they were old lovers until its said and shown. But that's just my interpretation. I wonder if Ryan would agree/that was his intention.

Alright, I'll finally say it.

Given the themes of the film, does anyone else find it just a little bit contradictory having a white man from Sweden do the score?

Don't get me wrong, Ludwig did a phenomenal job and he's supremely talented. I love the score of the film. But it does take me out of the movie a bit when Delta Slim starts talking about how the blues is something African-Americans brought with them from home, or in that scene showing how the music can connect a people with their ancestors, knowing that a white dude from Sweden actually made the music that's playing rn. Would be cooler if it was from somebody that had more of connection to it.

He’s talking before that and he’s right actually, I had no clue who they were to each other until the s***scene

You mean those few minutes / that convo that lead up to the s***scene?

I don't see what's wrong with giving it a few minutes to establish their (past) relationship? That's story telling, rather than letting them immediately flirt or something.

I don’t think anyone saying it’s anything wrong

It’s just written in a way where it’s intentionally ambiguous about who they are to each other. That’s not a knock, just an observation

Thunderbolts replacing it

I see. Well, yeah, same observation. Guess to me it just wasn't that noteworthy and I got too hung up on the ''I don't think you could really know they were old lovers until its said and shown.'' part

i mean the first thing he does when he pulls up to her spot is go to his child’s grave and says “papa’s here”

then he goes inside and there’s a woman his age in there, and she’s asking him where he’s been the same way mary was just asking stack

it was pretty obvious imo

My initial reaction was lookin at Grace sideways for letting them in but at the same time her daughters life was at risk and they probably didn't know how soon the sun was going to come up. somebody should've checked the time and waited it out :jordancry:
