I'd like to submit this story for WIP Recs. Really great canon divergence where LXC dies (RIP dude), but WWX is secretly still alive (yay!). MXY is an absolute delight, & love getting to see LWJ being sect leader & making that JGS's problem @thispatternismine

The Wrong Man

by Remma3760

Not rated, WIP, 60k, Wangxian

Summary: Jin Guanyao is in the Unclean Realm again, playing for Nie Mingjue. It should have been just like any other day but Nie Mingjue had been particularly cutting so Jin Guangyao gave the music a little extra push. After all, it would only make him a little sicker. In the grand scheme of things, it wouldn't really make a difference. Turns out, he was wrong about that. Lan Xichen has had a brilliant idea on how to help both Nie Mingjue and Lan Wangji and he couldn't wait to share his plan. He has arrived unexpectedly in the Unclean Realm and Nie Huaisang is taking him to Jin Guangyao and Nie Mingjue. He hears the music. While it might only make Nie Mingjue slightly agitated, Lan Xichen is a Lan. They cultivate with music and so he is much more sensitive than most. Lan Xichen hears the song from the Collection of Turmoil and he qi deviates. This changes everything. As Lan Xichen's heir, Lan Wangji becomes Sect Leader. What difference will it make when Hanguang-Jun, the Light Bearing Lord leads one of the four great sects? What will happen when Lan Wangji has the power to change the world?

Jay Jefferson from "The Wrong Man" is one of my favorite villain-of-the-week characters, i love his evil smile and his demeanor

MICAH: Morning. JAY: Morning. You're the law man here? MICAH: Marshal Torrance. JAY: I'm Jay Jefferson. MICAH: Yes, I know. What do you want in North Fork? JAY: Your cooperation. MICAH: In what? JAY: I'm looking for a man. A fellow named Pete Dawson. MICAH: 40 years old. Blue eyes. Bald. 5 foot 7. I don't know any Pete Dawson. JAY: Does anybody in this neighborhood fit the description? MICAH: That description can fit a lot of men in this town, as well as most any other town. JAY: I'm asking about this town. MICAH: You heard my answer. JAY: Plenty of men. 5' 7", blue eyes, bald. MICAH: And none of them the man you're looking for. JAY: Marshal, I don't like to brag on my name, but it usually meets with more respect than you're showing. MICAH: Maybe that's because the legend about the name don't fit the truth as I know it. That's what you're aiming at, isn't it?

“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.

Henry Fonda is 'The Wrong Man' on Max and Criterion Channel

Alfred Hitchcock was never accused of being a master of realism in the movies—”Some films are slices of life. Mine are slices of cake,” he once said—but for The Wrong Man (1956) he uses his skill to create a conventional life with mundane detail, an observant, unobtrusive camera, and patient direction, and then turn it into a real-life nightmare. Inspired by a true story, it stars Henry Fonda as…

Movie Review | The Wrong Man (Hitchcock, 1956)

On the surface this is more dialed down than one might expect from Hitchcock, but I do think he applies his style pretty judiciously without breaking the docudrama veneer. You can see a bit of that classic subjective visual sense in the prison scene, not just in the nightmare sequence but also in how he captures the overbearing presence of the physical environment. And there’s the initially subtle shift into Fonda’s POV, cutting between his worried face and the judge, jury, lawyers and the rest, how they appear more important than what exactly they might be saying, as the trial seems to be going south.

This is a very talky movie, but I do think it speaks to Hitchcock’s strengths at handling dialogue scenes that they feel dynamic and engaging even when he doesn’t seem to be doing overtly flashy on a stylistic level. He’s able to let the rhythms of the dialogue play out in a way that keeps potentially perfunctory scenes play out interestingly. He seemingly gets out of his own way out of respect for the material, but that doesn’t mean he’s checked out.

And I’ll say that I really liked the texture of the central relationship between Fonda and Miles, playing real, flawed but fundamentally good and loving people, an interesting contrast with the shades of darkness that sometimes colour Hitchcock’s protagonists. Also, after watching Jimmy Stewart totally mess up in his romantic life in multiple movies this weekend, it was nice to see Fonda not take Miles for granted.
