Today I'm in the process of uploading 122 screencaps from Viggo's new film, Alatriste, which I reviewed over here.
As I mentioned in my review, one of the things that most impressed me about this film was the artistry of the shots, and how the director, having been an art professor before he started in film, deliberately composed his shots to evoke such painters as Velazquez and El Greco. So I capped the film with an eye toward those painterly shots.
Now, I can present the pictures to you all as they are, with no captions, and let you wander through them on your own. Or I can give you a running commentary on what's happening in the story, which can be either serious or snarky. I can go either way. (Bear in mind that if I get snarky, I may say things that will make it impossible for you to take these characters seriously.) There's also the option of starting with the pics themselves, and then coming back and editing the post later with commentary. It all pretty much boils down to whether you all want to be spoiled just by the pics, or by knowing the actual outline of the story.
So, let's hear from you.
