took some old concept art for my cover and made more concept art
i do quite like the premise because the scene it's referencing is kind of the most important one but i'd still play around with fonts more (i'd go for freehand) + make a more detailed version of this in the future

Since Johnny Hamlet was a spaghetti western adaptation of Hamlet (and mostly notable for really not beating the Hamlet/Gertrude allegations oh my god) I've been thinking of what other Shakespeare plays should get spaghetti western movies. Obviously the tragedies or histories make sense, but I kind of want a ludicrously violent Much Ado About Nothing. Benedick and Beatrice bicker at each other as they ride across the deserts of Spain Arizona to clear her cousin's name of a crime she didn't commit. Dogberry and his vigilance committee clearly think they are the stars of this spaghetti western. Beatrice strings Claudio up on a rope, lets him almost die, then nods to Benedick to shoot the rope, and they tell him "You got lucky. You won't get lucky again." They get a bunch of sequels with increasingly little connection to the first film and increasingly ridiculous titles.

Academy Award Winners for Best Cinematography: 2023 — James Friend, ASC, BSC All Quiet on the Western Front // Im Westen nichts Neues (2022) Directed by Edward Berger Aspect Ratio: 2.39 : 1
One way the film places viewers up close to its fraught battle scenes is through its varied color palette. “The soldiers’ uniforms were designed to be camouflaged and blend in,” Friend says. “So, we would find any excuse to add a pop of color.” For example, when Paul and his comrades find themselves under attack from a tank division, the vehicles appear from behind a dramatic cloud of yellow smoke. ��I don’t know if that color is historically correct,” Friend says. “It was dreamt up in a hotel suite between Ed [Berger, director] and me as we did visual notes and thought, ‘What horrible, acrid color can we introduce that will pop?’ We didn’t want the film to have that desaturated, almost black-and-white ‘war movie’ feel that has been visually exhausted.” — The American Society of Cinematographers, November 2022

I love how Criminal Minds 5x11 - Retaliation is a very Emily Prentiss episode. And more hints about Emily's past and her previous training, the ability to continue on and be alert.
The car she's in gets hit by a truck, and she keeps on trucking along. She empties her clip but is also cognizant enough to memorize partial plate numbers:
Tumblr media
(Wow a night scene, look at that, I can see during a night scene, Criminal Minds Evolution!)
Emily's trained to go on (and honestly, also her dogged stubbornness just doesn't keep her down) despite serious injury.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Emily's so confused when Derek tells her she emptied her clip shooting at the truck.
Right up to the personality of people who would and could do undercover work:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Speaking from experience there, Special Agent Emily Prentiss?
And then, Reid unknowingly hits on the head Emily's ongoing existential crisis anytime a case hits too close to home.

But also, how, honestly Emily has it in her to just really murder a man.
As the criminal of the week, Schrader observed Emily has the look in her eyes that said she would and could kill him given the chance.
Schrader killed the cop who was in the car with Emily. Schrader taunted her about killing the man right next to her.

Schrader either thought he could psych out Emily from killing him or was desperate enough to just pull a suicide by cop.
Schrader taunts Derek about his arm injury and moves his gun an inch away from Joe Muller's head to shoot Derek instead.
And that minute movement was enough for Emily:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Derek shooting at Schrader though was both overkill and risky since he could've shot Muller instead, thankfully that doesn't happen).
I’m so curious what Emily’s been through during her taskforce days that Emily is… comfortable is not exactly the word but unfazed killing?
What has Emily seen that makes some of the horrific scenes just roll off her back.
Also the very few anecdotes she shares are kind of harrowing in themselves:
Like, how years later Emily shares with Tara Lewis that in her JTF-12 days, she was on a mission where there were troops who would leave playing cards on dead terrorists, declaring 'We did this'.
What has Emily had to do that 'good guys doing bad things' has really screwed her up bad?
That after everything she just wanted a job that was “clean”. Clear right and clear wrongs.
I do think as hard it is as a fan to accept— Emily did need the time away from the BAU to reconcile a few things about herself.
Accept some of the things she learned about herself as a spy and realize… all the morally ambiguous things she can live with to a point. There are still lines she won’t cross.
Also, because spy stuff -- and Burn Notice kind of gave the (fictional, maybe?) guidelines to a great undercover agent:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Michael Westen: "When you're claiming to be somebody you're not, the key is commitment. You've got to sell it like your life depends on it. Because sometimes it does."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Michael Westen: "Inexperienced operatives abandon a cover ID under pressure. Experienced ones just play their roles harder."
---
I can only imagine that Emily Prentiss played by the same rules as Michael Westen.

"What could he do, should've been a father but he never made it to his twenties. What a waste, army dreamers. Ooh, what a waste of army dreamers" I've recently been watching some war films for research purposes for a short film project I'm hoping to complete by the end of the year, of course, All Quiet on the Western Front is my favorite movie, I've seen the 1930s one before but never gotten around to the 2022 one.It's possibly one of my favorite films ever and I've never sobbed as much, I've brought the book as well and will be reading it over the week. Volker Bertelmann will pay for my therapy bills because this movie's score is hauntingly beautiful and fills me with such grief. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it <3

Okay, I've heard people call Michael Westen boring, that he doesn't have a personality, but he's everything to me. He's obsessive, he's sarcastic, he has sad puppy eyes, he threatens to kill people, he sighs in relief when he doesn't have to. He's a control freak, he's perfectly calm, he's never relaxed a day in his life, he wears tailored suits and lives in the nastiest loft you've ever seen, he's ruthless, he says pretty please, he likes yogurt, he has PTSD that's not even from combat, it's because he's an abuse survivor. He's an older sibling, he takes care of everyone even when they're being stupid because he's loyal to the point of recklessness, and he's my specialest little guy

Now BACK OFF! Last chance, Mrs. Westen. Do you really wanna pay for your son’s mistakes? He paid for mine.
