#GiriHaji Ep 5 uses bathroom mirrors in three scenes quite close together to show three characters attempting to make decisions . . . or trying to avoid the ramifications of their choices.

(see our Substack 'Roundup' next Wednesday for the full breakdown)

Finally got to watch #girihaji on netflix - originally from bbc2. Has been long on my watch list. Amazing piece of tv! Characters, plot, cinematography, script, performances, all are all top notch.
Why did it take me so long!
Anyone watched?

2/2
This #GiriHaji scene uses stairs to demonstrate how its characters feel.

Much like the detectives themselves, every shot of the talk between Kenzo (Takehiro Hira) and Sarah (Kelly Macdonald) is beautiful, intentional, sometimes a little off-kilter and other times feeling quite unbalanced.

Noir loves itself a stairway — for example we’ve looked at how Brighton Rock uses stairs for both mundanity and murder, and Double Indemnity uses them to stage Phyllis’s iconic introduction.

#GiriHaji also uses stairs for many purposes . . . 1/2

Reminds me of the scene in #GiriHaji where the Scottish DS gently says to the Japanese police detective, "You don't have to be strong all the time. ... You can be not okay."

Holy shit. How utterly beautiful. I didn't even know what this show was! And now I have to watch it!! ❤️❤️❤️ #GiriHaji

If you haven’t seen #girihaji then do so. A well written and acted story which also contains this exquisite scene.

Jesus, everyone in Giri / Haji is beautiful. #GiriHaji #Netflix

How did I not know/remember/divine that @joebarton.bsky.social is #COYS?

Am saving Black Doves for next week, when I can watch in peace, with high hopes, given how much #GiriHaji came to mean to me when I watched it 4 years ago. (Though I don’t recall Spurs references.)

Si habéis visto #BlackDoves y os ha molado, echadle un vistazo a #GiriHaji si no lo habéis hecho ya. Es también de Joe Barton, mola muchísimo y tiene una de las escenas más bonitas, perfectas, inesperadas e hipnóticas que he visto nunca en televisión. Ya me daréis las gracias.

Might become a Joe Barton Superfan.
Rewatched #girihaji and it’s one of the all time greats. Started #thelazarusproject and it’s really good. And there’s more of his projects coming soon.

Giri / Haji is so good. That is all. #Netflix #BBC #GiriHaji #neonoir #streaming

The amount of people that can't be bothered to read the subtitles is depressing.

Frankly, this looks pretty good. It's nice too see something different on TV. #GiriHaji
