Så fik jeg set afsnit 2. Serien fortsætter uden at miste pusten. "Al Swearingen", manden som styrer Deadwood, er een af de bedst portrætterede skurke, jeg har set på film, ihvertfald een af de mest skrupelløse.
Jeg har stadig intet dårligt at sige om serien. Såvidt jeg kan forudse, er det her 12 timers "Unforgiven".

Fik set afsnit 3, 4, 5 og 6 idag. Serien fortsætter ufortrødent og man nyder hvert et afsnit. Ian McShane er suveræn som den skrubelløse saloon ejer Al Swearengen og Powers Boothe er nu kommet til som ny saloon ejer og modstander. Indtil videre har dette kanon udsigter :)
Film: 9/10 DVD: 9/10
Halvvejs igennem og jeg er allerede begyndt at sukke over kun at mangle 6 afsnit og anden sæson kommer først til efteråret....fucking cocksuckers!

Så blev det til 3 afsnit mere af denne usigeligt skønne westernserie, som jeg bliver mere og mere forelsket i. Man skal ikke forvente vild action, men når det sker, sker det hårdt og brutalt. Dialogen er tilsvarende hård og obskøn, men derudover konstant vanvittig skarp. Har ligget fuldkommen flad af grin adskillige gange og nej, der er intet komedie i serien, bare et superbt script og nogle kompetente og perfekt castede skuespillere til at aflevere de mest hardcore oneliners, man vil kunne grine over i dagevis.
Ja, endnu engang overstrømmende ros og jeg må simpelthen gi' den et nøk opad. 3 afsnit igen...een aften...fucking suk!
Har I ikke købt den endnu? Hvad venter I på, det er de billigste og bedste 10-12 timers underholdning, som fåes for penge i øjeblikket og replayværdien er i top.

Ja, "Al Swearengen" er vanvittig sjov i de kommentarer han har. Serien generelt er nu heller ikke dårlig, men der er da visse episoder hvor der ikke sker en skid, rent handlingsmæssigt. Folk går bare rundt i byen og snakker med hinanden.
Afsnit 6 er stadig det bedste jeg har set længe. Er pt ved 1x11 svjv.
This weekend will be filled with staring out of windows while holding a glass of scotch.
#18 Nedenstående uddrag fra et review og især det med fed rammer meget godt mht. min egen følelse.
The great thing about Deadwood for me, a fan of westerns, is that this is all true. Bullock is a real person; so is Sol Star, Charlie Utter, Al Swearengen (his saloon is real too), as are a number of other people here. That fifty-dollar bounty for the head of an Indian was something that happened. (There's a story about a guy riding into town with a head impaled on a stick.) Hickok, Jane, Utter, Bullock and Sol all strolled into Deadwood as they do here, and Bullock's store really was a hit, and Hickok did actually sit down with a fellow named Jack McCall and play poker with him.
What Milch adds to this history is wonderful dialogue -- sort of like second-generation Mamet -- that is interestingly much more appropriate for this antiquated setting than it ever was for Milch's contemporary cop drama. The characters' speech, filled with old-west lingo, is like a hostile song. Milch certainly got lost in his own accolades on Big Apple, but this, the type of thing worthy of the praise, is his sharpest writing in years. I don't know if the new location rejuvenated him or something, but the writing here singes; it's the type of thing you can completely give yourself over to.
Milch's style as a writer is a lot like breaking in new boots: it takes a while before you become comfortable. The same holds true for Deadwood, but once he really hits a stride, which occurs here midway, the life in the script doesn't quite glow hot but sort of does a steady, seamless, unbroken roll -- like film through a projector -- and you come to realize that Milch's over-complicated writing is really, in a sense, a spell. A trance.
Deadwood is certainly gloomy and soiled. It feels like an accurate depiction of the times -- the good and the bad -- and it does a splendid job of being a treatise wrapped in the cloak of an entertaining oater. It's the best of both worlds, and while Deadwood can never rise to the heights of its namesake, it does come pretty close. And with its unlike-anything-else-on-the-air milieu, its wicked mood, uncleanliness, and its paradoxical retrograde freshness, Deadwood can only mean good things for those of us who seek out intelligent television.
For mig, kan der sagtens være afsnit, hvor der actionmæssigt ikke sker noget, karakterudviklingen og dialogen udgør rigeligt alternativ for mig. Jeg får denne, feel good følelse, lidt ligesom, når jeg ser Lost in translation eller Code 46 :)

Nu skal du heller ikke misforstå mig. Det er også det bedste jeg har set i lang tid.
Jeg er dog forundret over han mener det er gammel "western-lingo". Jeg tvivler på "fucking" var meget brugt som ord dengang? Men det er self spekulationer. :)
Men det er en fornøjelse hver gang jeg sætter et afsnit på.
