"And we're going to try to capture a certain psychosphere ambiance of the place, much like we did in season one."

I'm biased but I kinda love how unpretentiously pretentious he is. would be curious if MM modeled any of his performance after him.

xp: either way I am for it!
plus he's given me the word "psychosphere."

he was a bartender in Austin and FYI they are all like that.
maybe it's a type that extends beyond Austin but there's definitely Alex Jones crossed with an eternal phd candidate type of dudes all over the place.

hey you know what will be interesting about season two of this, maybe more than the cast/locale/degree of embroilment in occult happenings: how it is structured. the first's plot facilitated this really prerty sophisticated framework; different time periods, reliability of narrators, shifting focus. the newer cops were a part of this. i wonder if the guy has ideas for something equivalent
― schlump, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 03:12 (nine years ago) link
like the collision of the narration with the protagonists in varying eras of vigor & weariness gave it such weight
― schlump, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 03:18 (nine years ago) link
yeah that is one underrated strength of the one-off 8 season arc, they can blow through a longer time period like a novel where most shows have to proceed with a straightforward year-by-year chronology to match the production schedule. i wouldn't necessarily want TD to always jump back and forth between 2 eras, but the idea of a long investigation unfolding over years is good. so many cop shows have to resolve cases in unrealistically short periods of time, might as well let things play out for much longer.

I kind of wish they would go the full Bolaño with this and set it at the San Ysidro border (but then I actually just wish HBO would commission a sprawling 2666 adaptation....)

xpost Apropos of nothing, you just completely blew my mind with that. I had a dream as a kid about Carol Burnett owning a vineyard (which I only really remember because it was maybe the most boring and interminable dream I ever had) and I thought it was completely a product of my imagination.

In a discussion about his shift towards long-form television as opposed to big-screen features (both "To Live and Die in LA" and "Killer Joe" are being mooted for TV adaptations, and we've plenty on both in the upcoming interview), Friedkin name-checked a few shows that he felt had taken the place of films as the topic of water-cooler, or "coffee machine" conversation—"Homeland," "24," and "True Detective."At the mention of the last we couldn't help but let him know that we had him pegged as one of the five directors we'd like to see direct a season of the show down the line. Would he consider it, we asked, if they came knocking? He paused a moment, looking a tiny bit surprised."I am considering it." said Friedkin. "I like this writer [Nic Pizzolatto] very much. I've met him, and he's the real deal as far as I'm concerned. Now, all the new seasons are different so I'm not committed—this new season has nothing to do with the last one. Except for him and his sensibility, which I think is extraordinary."Pushing a little to get him to confirm that he's in the mix, Friedkin remained positive but circumspect."I'm… I can't say much more at this time. But I'm a fan of his writing, even though this will not be a continuation of what was done before with (Matthew) McConaughey (with whom obviously Friedkin has a relationship after 'Killer Joe') and Woody Harrelson. So what you can say is I'm a huge fan of his writing, I've met with him, I like him, I like the direction he's taking with this."
