Gene Cousineau: âLittle Sally Reed from Joplin, Missouri. What do you want?â
Sally Reed: âTo be an actress ⊠itâs all I ever wanted in the whole world.â
This quick exchange introduces Barryâs audience to Sally (Sarah Goldberg) in the series premiere. Her passionate, teary plea rings normally at first glance; sheâs a small-town girl with wide-eyed Hollywood dreams. Aw, shucks. Over four seasons, HBOâs grim comedy ingeniously peels back layers to unveil Sallyâs discombobulating, deeply human personality. Her unlikable traitsâselfish, gravely insecure, a knack for walking over people (including seemingly naive aspiring actor Barry Block)âremain intact as the show nears its end.
By now, though, we know these qualities stem from a marred past: a rotten home life, previous spousal abuse, and a gnawing lack of confidence she desperately wants to cover up. Barry rarely excuses her entitled behavior but slowly sheds light on how her illusory front is a coping mechanism. No wonder she makes the short-lived Joplin as an outlet to process her tragedies. Whatâs worse? She barely gets time to exist in the world she creates after working hard to achieve it. As it turns out, Sally is the ultimate portrait of trauma in Bill Hader and Alec Bergâs stellar series, which wraps on May 28.
Sally Reed was probably never going to have a happy ending. Itâs not because she prioritizes her lofty career ambitions, pushing away anything that gets in the way. Goldberg plays Sallyâs goals with such enthusiasm it usually borders on mania, even when sheâs sympathetic. Itâs a shame she hasnât won an Emmy for her wrenching yet funny performance. Remember her season two monologue when Barry (Hader) auditions for Jay Roach? Or her season three âentitled fucking cuntâ breakdown in the elevator that Natalie (DâArcy Carden) shares with the world, leading to her downfall? But the professional blinders Sallyâs had on for most of Barryâs run is what limits her in the end.
As if her traumatic history wasnât enough, her entanglement with Barry Berkman worsens everything. He breezes into her life one fine day, drawn into her safe space, when he catches her rehearsing outside Geneâs (Henry Winkler) studio while on a mission. Barry finds solace in it, attracted to the idea of shedding his skin to inhabit somebody who doesnât have PTSD or a laundry list of crimes. Itâs enough to get him hoping for a fresh start. Thatâs also what Sally hoped for when she moved to Los Angeles after finally leaving her abusive husband, Sam (Joe Massingill).
Season four delves into why Sally deserved to leave her Joplin jail. Sam isnât the only reason. Her mother is dismissive, flat-out refusing to believe her ex abused Sally, nor does she care that her daughterâs boyfriend is arrested for murder in L.A. âBig whoopâ isnât exactly the expected maternal reaction, and her nice-guy father doesnât have anything valuable to add, either. Itâs clear from the final seasonâs early episodes that Sally doesnât have anyoneâanyone except for an imprisoned Barry. Her admittance to him in this seasonâs âbestest place on earth,â that she feels safest with him, is a devastating reality chec
Hader and Goldberg, sitting feet away, separated by a glass barrier, deliver a potent performance in a scene that sells their toxic attachment. She can write all the one-act plays and TV shows she wants, but Barryâs grievously absorbed her identity just when you (and everyone around her) thought she was free of it. Their confrontation in jail is a turning point for the showâs final installments. Her shaky confession sets Barryâs brain aflame. He teams up with the FBI, makes an enemy out of NoHo Hank (Anthony Carrigan), and escapes prison during a shootout. Ultimately, it launches a new life for the duo in the middle of a barren landscape where they don new identities and shed their skins. Just like the dream, huh?
Barryâs final season jumps eight years ahead with a full picture in episode five, âtricky legacies.â It glimpses into the dreary monotony of Barry and Sally, who go by Clark and Emily now. They shield their child from the real world. It doesnât mean Sallyâs not seething under Emilyâs mask. Her pain follows her because she chose to give up the one thing that mattered: her acting dream. Having experienced a shitty upbringing, she passes along the intergenerational trauma to John by parenting similarly to her momâindifferent, indignant, and inebriated. She doesnât know where to start nurturing.
Itâs not like Barryâs childhood was a prize, so neither of them is good at this, but Sally is on a whole other level. She drops alcohol in his juice to put him to sleep, serves up burnt lunches, and generally wrestles with how to love this human being she gave birth to. In Sallyâs expressions, Goldberg displays a tangible aversion to motherhood, a full-bodied disdain for the life theyâre responsible for creating. So yes, in a twisted way, sheâs a copy of her parent now. Itâs a full circle.
Everyone on Barry is haunted by their actions, especially with the time jump, so Sally isnât an exception, of course. Barry wreaked absolute havoc. Gene lost Janice Moss (Paula Newsome), ruined his legacy, and now reappears to chase fame again. As seen in episode six, âthe wizard,â Hank has grown a successful business, but had to kill the love of his life to do it. Fuchesâ (Stephen Root) friendship with Barry turns sour as he morphs into the Raven. Yet, Sallyâs regression is agonizing because she was a lick away from gaining everything she wanted. Instead, she ponders torturing her network boss, kills a man in self-defense, and runs back home, only for everything to crumble again. All this while witnessing Oscar winner Sian Heder work with her mentee, Kristen (Ellyn Jameson), and watching Natalie soar.
Now, sheâs drunk and being tortured (note Haderâs prolific direction in âthe wizardâ) as a man in a ski mask figure shakes up their trailer home. Sheâs permanently haunted. Janiceâs father has captured her partner, and all she can do is call him repeatedly, begging him to come back. With two episodes of Barry remaining, Sally is left alone in her cage to care for John. Does she head back to her hometown to complete the cycle? Or will she return to the city of dreams to find Barry and maybe accomplish the only thing she wants to be in this world? Either way, Sally might not realize it, but sheâs already played the role of a lifetime now. Itâs wish fulfillment in the worst and most tragic possible way.

Inspired by the real story of a high school American-football coach and his teamâs participation in the 2004 season. The fall and rise of one of the most consistent team, especially after holding a record for the longest winning streak, what happens when it was broken unexpectedly? Do the players lose the confidence, coach be clueless, parents go crazy and media annoys them, is what neatly this film narrated. It looked nice to me and I had a good time, but it was too long and not inspiring as the other sports film based on the true events. From the director of âCoach Carterâ, another decent sports film. I am not disappointed because I was not expecting to be a masterpiece, though not bad for once viewing. All the actors were good, especially it is Jim Caviezelâs one of the major roles and he was amazing. American-football was always been an Americas sport, so I never interested in it except watching films based on them for inspiration. Especially after âConccusionâ, my interest on them dropped further. Whatever I said is not a reason to skip the film. As a film, it did the right thing to portray the real life achievers on the screen to boost the young sports persons. Only to me it was just an above average, but for many others, it is one of the best sports film of the year. Forget the American-football, what I liked was, achievements are good for our progress and make a career, but sometimes thereâs much more than making records in the games. So itâs a good moral lesson film than a fine entertaining film. I wonât recommend it, but definitely not a waste of time. 6.5/10

Check it out! My buddy Joe from VSU theatre & TBNL improv was just on an episode of "Zeke and Luther" on Disney XD! Unsurprisingly, he plays the bully, Crowbar Plunk.
