I’m so in love with Vinland Saga

so, manipulative character in his 40s with grey moral and some mental health issues? I can fix him. Askeladd’s my man.

i’m probably not the first one to notice this, but it really breaks my heart that from chapter 17 onwards, thorfinn wears the clothes that the english woman gave him right before he signalled to askeladd and his crew to invade. she says they’ll be big for him, and she’s right - he more than grows into them. by the time askeladd is dead, he’s pretty much worn them out completely. and. i don’t know. just. thorfinn, consumed by rage, so much so that he doesn’t know anything but a quest for revenge, holding onto something like this is just. like i know he probably didn’t have that many other options, but he could’ve got a new set of clothes from any of the other villages askeladd and crew raided if he’d wanted to, but he didn’t. it’s like. he’s so used to the violence by this point, so consumed by hatred and so desperate for some sort of meaning to his emotions, but he wears a symbol of the one time someone was kind to him, and he knows without a doubt that he’s made her suffer. i. my heart goes out to him. because, i think that this is part of the reason he was able to bring himself back. because yes, he carried his father’s knife, and yes, he carried the knife of a man he killed, but he also carried the clothes, the warmth, the comfort, of the first person to look beyond his violence - look it in the face, even - and know that he could be someone so much better.

i just. this is, for me, what makes thorfinn so. i don’t know. i think, this is just a reminder that he is. still a child. and he’s not done growing up, but he’s done so much more and so much less of it than most. he’s an adult but he’s a child. and more importantly, there are people out there who are willing to help him be one. but he chooses not to be, even though he is, and that makes me. i don’t know.

i guess it’s because this marks a turning point for thorfinn. because in choosing to warn the woman who gave him clothes, food, care, and shelter, he is telling her that he doesn’t want the life of a viking raider. but in choosing also to still go through with askeladd’s plan, he’s saying that he does. and as he runs off to raid with askeladd’s men, he’s choosing to leave the english woman and everything she represents behind. but at the same time, he wears the clothes she gave him, right up until the end.

i don’t know. i have a lot of feelings about this scene and what it means. because yes, ultimately thorfinn does choose askeladd over the other possibilities, but he also, just for a moment… doesn’t.

This week's episode of Vinland saga was deeply heartbreaking.

So far we have seen how terrible slavery is, but only (mostly) in theory. In the way one may look at a neighboring country with serious issues and think, yeah, that sucks.

This episode takes it to a personal level. Sure, we saw Einar's family die at the beginning of the season, but we didn't care for him then. We didn't know him. He was just one of many victims. Like Arnheid. She is first introduced as a mild, nice lady that won't harm a fly, fooling us into thinking her life is perhaps not too bad. And little by little, we're fed pieces of her misery.

Abused by the mistress of the house. Doomed to a life as sex slave, and pregnant with a child of the master. A dead child. A lost family. And yet she smiles through it all. She picks up the little crumbs of joy she can and gives up on her freedom, on her past life. She is able to laugh at last. Until the storm hits, and she's not able to let it pass. Just when she was starting to accept her fate, when she was settling in her life as a slave.

Garnar, her husband, ruined by slavery, shaped into a desperate beast driven by blind revenge finally reunites with her, only to die in her arms as he dreams about the life they can no longer have. And she can't even have that one moment in peace, because she's a slave, and surrounding her are men waiting to take her back to her doom. Her life is no longer hers. Her future snatched right out of her hands.

Just beautifully done. At the beginning of the season I used to think Thorfinn was being too hard on himself. He was just a child after all, when he was out in the war. However, living like this, amongst slaves, experiencing first hand their struggles and regrets, the sheer injustice of the abuse, how could he not blame himself? He, too, ruined lives, broke families apart. Killed indiscriminately and sent people into slavery.

#vinland saga #vinland saga spoilers #thorfinn #arnheid #I feel for him #you're doing great Thorfinn keep up the good work #but seriously this season has surpassed all my expectations of it I thought it would be another action packed vikings #which is not bad I do love a good historical viking #but this??? shit it is done so well #thorfinn is very much just a human #he is no hero #and neither are the people he surrounds himself with #I am looking forward to seeing him grow his own forest of mushrooms #living peacefully with a group of hippy friends that stare at the sky all day and talk about the meaning of cats

Den som väntar på något gott väntar aldrig för länge. @kulturdasset lär bli mäkta imponerad av några av månadens filmval. Det är klart. Värt att vänta på vad det också. 😜

65 (2023) [👍] Riktigt bra SF om en utomjording som hamnar på jorden under dinosauriernas regim.

Australiens (2014) [👎🆓] En budgetstinkare från Australien. Går på komisk knock men svingar vilt i luften.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023) [👍🔁]

Grease Live! (2016) [👍🎭🔁]

Hairspray Live! (2016) [👍🎭🔁]

Hocus Pocus 2 (2023) [👍🔁]

Kapten Våghals / Captain Scarlett (1952) [🆓] Intressant, och mot alla odds, kombination av Robin Hood och Röda Nejlikan. Hollywood! Vi vill ha en remake franchise!

Lair, the (2022) [__] Neil Marshall, åter i samarbete med Charlotte Kirk, och precis som i The Reckoning inte dåligt men når heller inte riktigt ända fram.

Lost City, the (2022) [👍🔁]

Love of Three Queens / L'amante di Paride (1954) [👎🆓] Spretigt sömnpiller med Hedy Lamarr.

Mord i Venedig / A Haunting in Venice (2023) [👎] När jag tänker tillbaka till Kenneth Branagh föregående exkursion som Poirot (Döden på Nilen, 2020) kommer beskrivningen ”välpolerad yta och dyra färger” för mig. Men vad gör man inte för Michelle Yeoh liksom?

Saga of the Viking Women and Their Voyage to the Waters of the Great Sea Serpent, the (1957) [🔁🆓] Vikingraffel signerat Roger Corman. Den här hade jag tydligen sett tidigare... Ett upptäckt som är ett omdöme i sig.

Ski Troop Attack (1960) [🆓] Skidåkarraffel signerat Roger Corman, han har verkligen fått till det i den här filmen. Om oinspirerat sidåkar-pang-pang är vad man längtar efter. Jag tror storyn tog en annan nedfart, för den minns jag inte mycket av.

Totally Killer (2023) [👍] Hallå, hej! Amazon får till en underhållande liten skräckkomedi som andas klassiska grepp och tillbaka till framtiden. Me like! Kommer antagligen ses igen.

Vidioten / UHF (1989) [__] Idag kanske mer ett underhållande tidsdokument om tiden innan YouTube gjorde videostjärnor av svenssons.

WarGames (1983) [👍🔁] Idag, i skuggan av AI kanske ännu mer aktuell än någonsin. Står fortfarande stadigt utan behov av remakes. Lekte med tanken att se uppföljaren, tills jag såg att den bara fanns på hyr-tjänsterna.

@kulturdasset lär börja drägla över husguden Neil Marshalls senaste, hen bör dock trycka på play där med något nedskruvade förväntningar. Resten tycker jag skall ge Totally Killer eller Kapten Våghals en chans. Den senare är kanske inte A-klassad underhållning, men väl värd en chans.

För den nyfikne med ett sug efter en utmaning såg jag the Reckoning i februari 2021.
