just re-watched Casanova...thoughts?

[sapphire_child]

WHY Russell T. Davies must you insist on ripping my heart out and squeezing it like a stress ball?! HONESTLY. I'm always fine until it gets to the end where it's just Rose Byrne and Peter O'Toole and she's telling him that Henriette sent her to look after him and just...GOD. D: The two of them are just phenomenal in that scene - especially Rose. I cry every time I watch it, it's like Doomsday all over again. The man might be a psycho angst whore to rival every other angsty fanwriter on the internet but STILL. He's definitely got me wrapped around his bloody little finger.

Other points of merit include David Tennant shagging everything in sight and then looking ridiculously pretty while he angsts (seriously, it should be illegal how pretty he looks when he angsts - ILLEGAL I tells ya!). I also just realised that Ms. Hartigan from "The Next Doctor" played baby!Casanova's mum! AWESOME. I love British TV, they just seem to circulate the same dozen actors for everything :D I love it. Nina Sosanya was also spectacular, but then she's been good in everything I've seen her in really.

I'm also currently listening to the love theme (the only frakking song I can get from the soundtrack because OH YES, IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY EXIST) and oh Murray Gold, why does your music have to be so gorgeous? As far as composers for TV in particular go, he's right up there with Michael Giacchino for me which is saying A LOT because Giacchino has done some of the most SPECTACULAR stuff on Lost (amongst other things). I love you Michael and Murray!

Right. Very tired now, must go to bed. Ciao, ciao!

I know! Only he didn't take heed of the saying obviously :( *grumbles at Ten*

Yeah, it always makes me grumble at Ten, but then I remember it's all RTD's and external circumstances' fault and he is almost redeemed XD

Heh. This is true.
