i love watching the behind the scenes bits because of the insight it gives you. the death scene was TWENTY EIGHT PAGES LONG in the script and boy did it feel like it. one of the producers mentioned how they “never wanted to take the cameras off the kids because then it’s kind of like.. letting them off the hook” and my writer brain found that supremely gratifying. the complete lack of ‘downtime’ from tom’s call to the press conference forced you to feel some of the tension the siblings did, and it did NOT give you a break because they didn’t get a break. it yanked you in unexpectedly and didn’t let you go for almost a full half hour. it was so masterful and i expect emmys all around <3
