This was riveting to watch, the same way Mad Men is. I felt like laughing hysterically at how wonderful this show is.
This whole episode and particularly the balcony scene were a masterclass in directing, acting, writing and editing. Every action and every word spoken convey so much meaning, and yet they feel so organic. I feel thankful to be able to witness such brilliance.
The loop was a bit predictable, but I was impressed by the way this episode feels like a fever dream.
I was impressed by the use of color in this episode.
It's totally amazing how they manage to use something so small, think about the tiny details, and make you feel so intensely worried about the characters. What we've got here is top-notch writing, editing, casting choices... Everything is perfect. They dot all the i's and cross all the t's.
This is brilliant filmmaking. Even when nothing extraordinary is happening, it entertains you, and you enjoy every little dialogue. The editing in this particular episode was very well done, and it all adds up to the plot progress.
