I've been working on my brevity.
So I'll stick with this thought: Skins. Wow.
Why haven't I watched this before? Because I'm a loser, that's why.
God, the visual metaphors, GOD the actresses, GOD THE WRITING, GOD THE ACTRESSES.
Naomi clutching Emily's shirt to her naked body?
I have seen few things more appallingly, beautifully real than that.
And God. (Skins makes me invoke that title more than any sex ever could) The recaps. Those words and that analysis and that laydown of the story like that? I am such a whore for good writing, and this is wonderful writing about other wonderful writing and I am exhausted (in an indescribably gorgeous way) by it.
And have I mentioned the visual metaphors? *Insert screencap of "Emily slept here" branded onto Naomi's cheek*
Jesus motherfucking Christ. (So, ok, I guess it was God who did the motherfucking b'dum chhhh!)
And I will stop here because quantifying this is impossible. Wow.
