“Down-turny mouth” for the win! Gough really turned what’s usually seen as a negative trait into her superpower and absolutely crushed that role.
I hope we get to enjoy at least one more Star Wars masterpiece from Tony Gilroy, or at least more stories from creators who take his advice to heart.
When actors of this caliber approached their roles with childlike wonder, it’s no surprise Andor became a masterpiece.
The attention to detail in this show continues to amaze me. It’s something really special.
I’ll start: “I burn my life to make a sunrise that I know I’ll never see.”
Andor feels like building a fire the hard way. At the start you’re just rubbing sticks together, wondering if anything’s even going to catch. Then you get that first tiny spark; nothing huge, but enough to pull you in. From there, it grows into a steady flame, and before you know it you’re hooked, watching its dancing glow. So when it finally turns into a full blaze, you really appreciate the heat because you were there for every step that brought it to life.
