While I watched this scene with my fangirl mind, focused totally on Dean, my other mind was watching Ackles, amazed at his ability to cry like that, because those tears were real, and never mind that this is supposedly only TV, that boy pulled out ALL the stops and cried like it was his last day on earth. Real crying is quite unattractive, and while this guy would be beautiful even if you put a bag over his head, Ackles pushed it hard in the direction it ought to go, with contortions and grimaces, and that unsettling redness to the eyes which you only see when the grief is painful enough to pull blood to the surface. I was actually concerned for him, after making yourself cry that hard, how on earth do you come down from there?
Ackles seems to understand what many other actors do not and that is even if the camera is not on you, even if the scene is not about you, there are reasons and means by which you can add texture to a scene. That you can move, and express, and attend, all of which validates what the other character is doing, and Ackles does this all the time, always aware of what the story needs. Then, when the camera is on him and the scene is about Dean? He ramps it up and makes every twitch, every movement of his mouth, everything, it all counts. It all means something. And he makes it look like a walk in the park.
He’s good. He’s very damn good and I don’t want to shoot myself in the foot, but there it is. It needs saying: Ackles has developed so much as an actor that he’s almost outgrown this part, and perhaps even Show.
Life is crazy. I hope to catch up with you flist today :)
Hope you are doing good.
*hugs*
