Just jumping on the huh? bandwagon re Soul Purpose. I saw it very late (this past Monday night), so had heard everyone and her sister extoll it. It had its moments, but the wallow in nightmares was just tedious. And the direction often showy in the clunky way. (Though didn't rise to the risable level of Stephen deknight's directorial debut last season).

I don't mind showy direction when it's done for a purpose - the expressionism of a Von Sternberg or expressionism cum psychoanalytic distancing of a Hitchcock.

I lurved this weeks ep, and at the moment have zippidydoodah to add to a fine analysis. Except, Son, I too hope they confront their moral stance head on too. Angel the Series - which to my mind has always suffered from a paucity of big-v Vision on MEs part - has been hit with a 200 joule resucitating jolt by Buffy cosmology paddles. Now do something with it.
