Британцы любят снимать сериалы в своего рода театральном стиле — небольшой набор сцен, где находится мало персонажей с минимумом движения и ведут длинные монологи/диалоги. Всё повествование и передача авторского замысла строится на расзговорах.
За последний год я частично посмотрел Alan Bennett's Talking Heads (люди монологом рассказывают свои истории на больные темы) и State of Union (женатая пара на грани разрыва, выясняют отношения в баре после сеансов у психолога). И ещё на днях полностью досмотрел After Life — у мужчины умирает жена, он теряет вкус к жизни и начинает говорить всё что думает. Затравка звучит интересно, но на деле это быстро уходит в довольно классическую драму о потере и поиске себя.
Есть ощущение, что такие произведения отходят как раз к британскому театру с его давней и сильной историей. Мне такой жанр нравится, но есть один нюанс: британцы просто жесть какие извращенцы. Не знаю, будто бы они годами были чопорными и высококультурными, сдерживали себя, а потом проникновение европейских "ценностей" сорвало какие-то пломбы. Это проявляется вообще во многих проектах, даже в каком-нибудь "Докторе Кто" можно увидеть эпизоды с шутками не просто ниже пояса, а прям отвратительную пошлятину. В коротких диалоговых драматических сериалах такого ещё больше. Герои могут пять минут обсуждать прямым текстом супер мерзкие интимные подробности. А в обычном диалоге на отвлечённую тему будут вставлять комментарии ниже пояса так, будто бы это абсолютно обычная естественная часть общения.
Не знаю, взаимодействуют ли люди у них так в реальной жизни. Возможно, это современная инкарнация своеобразного британского юмора: в конце-концов у Дугласа Адамса тоже было всякие неожиданное. В книге. Американский фильм оставил гэги, но убрал совсем трэшатину.

The Israeli military has attacked our flotilla. We call on all our governments and people of the world to condemn Israel’s crimes against humanity, and to demand the immediate release of all abducted crew. Our governments must end Israel’s illegal blockade and ongoing genocide of Gaza.
🚨 Take action NOW:
•Tag, email, and call your Ministry of Foreign Affairs and elected officials
• Join or organise a protest in your city
• Boycott Israeli products and companies
• Pressure your government to enforce an arms embargo and diplomatic sanctions on Israel
• Pressure institutions and your work place to divest from and sanction Israel
• Use the 'RISEFOR' campaign to pressure your government in 2 minutes
• Donate or join the next wave of flotilla - we will not stop until Palestine is free. Share this call widely on social media and with your network

We will sail. Since our ship was attacked on May 2, Israel has killed nearly 2,000 more Palestinians. Meanwhile, 14,000 babies now face imminent death from hunger due to Israel’s deliberate starvation campaign. This is the cost of global impunity. But we refuse to back down.
The ‘Madleen’ will sail soon. She may be small, but her mission is powerful: To break the silence. To challenge Israel’s illegal blockade through nonviolent direct action. To stand firmly and unapologetically, with Gaza.
JOIN US. Registrations are open for experienced and committed captains, crew, volunteers, and boat owners. You will be vetted and contacted only if successful: https://bit.ly/joinfreedomflotillaform
To those who can help us on land, sign our petition for an investigation into the attacks, demand your governments ensure safe passage for the 'Madleen’, and share this journey - because the more eyes on us, the safer we are.
#WeWillSail#Madleen#Conscience#FreeGaza#EndTheSiege#AllEyesOnDeck#StopArmingIsrael
Israel’s attack on an unarmed humanitarian vessel in European waters, and the government silence that followed, is part of a wider pattern: 19 months of Israel's relentless violence in Gaza and 77 years of impunity across occupied Palestine.
While Malta’s newly released report confirms what we already knew, there has still been no condemnation issued. No investigation. No accountability.
As we prepare to sail again with ‘Madleen’, we do so knowing our ships remain targets, not only of Israeli aggression but of global inaction.
We call on governments to guarantee safe passage, on media to report the truth, and on people everywhere to demand an end to Israel’s siege and ongoing genocide:
– Share this post and tag the EU Commission and your MEPs
– Sign our petition to demand an independent investigation
– Demonstrate at weapons manufacturers
– Keep #AllEyesOnDeck as ‘Madleen’ sails
