"There was something in the horror of that beautiful light that I liked."

Super quick excerpt before the finale of True Detective tonight -- less than half an hour away, ah! I meant to blog this sooner, it's a quote from a Daily Beast interview with Cary Fukunaga, director of all eight episodes of HBO's spectacular new series. He is so cool and talented. The whole interview is worth reading, but for some reason I really loved this quote.

"The image that always comes to my mind is one of a car driving along in the countryside, and there’s that light, especially in winter where everything is blue like a Magritte painting, and the sky is still light but it’s the last of its light, and I saw far, far away these guys on this plain. There was something in the horror of that beautiful light that I liked."

Finale starts in five minutes, BYE.
