Homecoming Season 1 (Official Thread)

Homecoming Is Must-See Mystery-Box TV


There are moments in Homecoming that are positively Hitchcockian, particularly with regard to Esmail’s choice of imagery. In episode three, there’s a vertical shot of Carrasco descending a flight of stairs that’s deliberately evocative of Vertigo. In a later episode, Esmail deploys a Hitchcock zoom so glorious it deserves an Oscar, even though, yes, I know, Oscars are not given to TV shows. Elements like that and a score that sometimes literally borrows from older films — like Alan J. Pakula’s Klute and Brian De Palma’s Dressed to Kill — infuse Homecoming with a classic conspiracy theory thriller spirit that makes it feel a bit old-school and thoroughly contemporary all at once.

Looks dope. I might have to look out for this one. There definitely some Hitchcock influences.

 

[PlayerNinety_Nine]

It's out now.

The atmosphere of it is pretty good, so far. I feel like Esmail is waiting like to drop some fukkery into the mix, though



Stephan James lowkey looking like a Black version of Elliot Alderson too

[steadyrighteous]

Is each episode under an hour or is he pushing it long?

EDIT: Oh shyt, 30 mins an episode. I'm still gonna get to it late but I might end up getting through it quicker than I thought.
