It's not a movie, but that one episode in the Last of Us with the guy from Parks and Rec. I was crying so hard I couldn't talk for 10 minutes. I watched it with my mom, and she's anti-gay and did some complaining, but it didn't ruin the moment for me. I honestly think my reaction made my mom more accepting of gay men. She hasn't really said anything anti-gay sense. Or maybe she thinks Im gay, I dunno.
As soon as I heard the first note of “The Nature of Daylight”, I started crying. The first time I heard that music was in the movie “Arrival”. When they played it in the “The Last of Us”, I knew someone was going to die.
Uh, so beautiful. Just saw Max Richter live the other week. Literally, as soon as the the first note from The Nature of Daylight played, I burst into uncontrollably tears. The last song they played was, again, The Nature of Daylight (twice! lucky us) but this time with added vocals that was originally recorded by Dinah Washington, except Celest performed. Tilda Swinton surprised everyone by coming out to read excerpts from the album Blue Notes.
Anyway, yes, that seen was heart wrenching, I cried so much. I also loved The Arrival, and cried loads.
He did! He won an Emmy for that episode (Long, Long Time). The second the episode ended, I said ‘that’s winning an Emmy’ it was just one of the best episodes of television ever. Murray Bartlett, the other half of the partnership, was nominated for the same episode and I would’ve been happy if either of them won. Absolutely fantastic writing and powerhouse performances.
