I mentioned higher up that the death scene of Werner and Mike in the desert dusk reminded me of an iconic scene - used as a movie poster and the usual still photo whenever this film is referenced - of Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal, Until the gunshot, of course.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">berkowit28</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 09 Oct 2018 12:52:33 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re:

		‘Better Call Saul’ Recap: Insincerely Yours	</title><link>https://www.rollingstone.com/?p=730125#comment-4127419130</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I would have thought that the best thing to do was to bring Werner's wife to ABQ but *not* to the secret camp. Instead give Werner 3-4 days off with her at a hotel. It saves 2 days travel to and from Germany that he wanted, plus, more important, would not run the danger that he'd never come back. Yes, it would slow down construction a bit, but there are things the workers could get on with. In the same way that Mike saw the sense in giving the men some R&amp;amp;R, he should have seen the sense in giving this much to Werner.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">berkowit28</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 03 Oct 2018 14:21:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 
		‘Better Call Saul’ Recap: Batting Practice	</title><link>https://www.rollingstone.com/?p=719895#comment-4089935188</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks. Yeah, I didn't connect these scenes at all. Though, sure, she would have been upset by the scene Mike made at the meeting, and he would have felt the need to apologize. Though quite how he felt that his exposing the imposter had to do with *her* remembering or forgetting his son, seems just a bit of a stretch without some previous interaction or discussion. That's why I was trying to remember if there was some scene I'd forgotten.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">berkowit28</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Sep 2018 13:35:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: 
		‘Better Call Saul’ Recap: Batting Practice	</title><link>https://www.rollingstone.com/?p=719895#comment-4089825434</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Have I forgotten some episode from last week? What was the scene between Mike and his daughter-in-law (mother of Kaylee) all about? It felt like it was from the Breaking Bad period when she wouldn't have anything to do with Mike, not from this earlier period when he had just made it possible for her to have this new house, was always over with her and Kaylee, etc. It seemed to refer to some scene where he might have interfered with her and some new guy she was interested in. Did I maybe sleep through this last week, or when is this situated?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">berkowit28</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Sep 2018 12:35:12 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;Orphan Black&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; closes its run with its focus on exactly the right thing: the sisterhood</title><link>http://www.avclub.com/tvclub/orphan-black-closes-its-run-its-focus-exactly-righ-259394#comment-3465779103</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Back in Season 1 there were consequences to taking out a police officer.

When Ferdinand was preparing himself to murder MK, he said with great glee that this would complete Helsinki - where large numbers of European clones were killed. He also gave (her?) a Finnish-sounding name: does anyone know if that was MK's real name, or was he speaking about a different clone killed at Helsinki?
