Temperance Brennan: Falling out of trees (The Doctor in the photo tribute)

Words cannot begin to describe how much I love this character. The empathy I feel towards her is endless. I don't recall ever being able to relate to a tv character as much as I do to her. For this and for many other reasons, aside from Dana Scully, she's my favourite, hands down.
This season of Bones has been "trying", rocky and disappointing for the most part, but "The Doctor in the photo" gave me something that had been missing for quite some time: character's depth and good angst.
What I wanted to convey through this simple piece of editing was not just Brennan's inner turmoil but her journey throughout the series. How everything she's been through brought her to this very moment where she finally came to realize that, in spite of her ever-present fears, she's not alone in this world and that taking risks, loving someone, even if we end up losing, is worth it in the end because it means we're living life at its fullest.

Voice-overs:
"I will show you fear in a handful of dust. T.S. Eliot"
"We don't actually fear death. We fear that no one will notice our absence. That we will disappear without a trace"
"Brilliant scientist"
"I can read bones, not people"
"Consumed by her work"
"I see a face on every skull"
"She became logical to the extreme"
"Emotional ties are ephemeral"
"She detached herself"
"I'm just one of those people who doesn't get to be in a family"
"It's a good thing I like being alone"
"Bones, you're not alone"
"There's more than one kind of family"
"You were cherished in this world"
"You're not alone in this world"
"I need my best friend"
"Doctor Brennan ... It's been a privilege"
"I've always been proud of you Zack"
"You're a good person"
"I consider you one of my closest friends"
"Marco?" "Polo?"
"Listen, I know you love me, alright?"
"I miss that. Someone caring where I am all the time"
"If you find somebody that you can trust you hang on to him"
"There is someone for everyone. You just have to be open enough to see it"
"I'm that guy. Bones, I'm that guy"
"I made a mistake"
"You don't want any regrets"
"I don't want to have any regrets"
"I'm with someone"
"I missed my chance"
"I'm sad" "That's so much better than dead"

Barbara, questo video è magnifico *____________________*

I tuoi lo sono sempre, hai un talento innato nel caratterizzare i personaggi nei tuoi lavori, ma davvero ti sei superata in questo!

L'avevo già visto mesi fa ma, non avendo visto ancora la 6.09, non potevo cogliere in pieno tutto il suo significato.

Ho appena finito di vedere l'episodio e mi sono lanciata sul tuo canale apposta. Ora sì che me lo sono gustato *.*

Meraviglioso!

[lorbaby83]

@isi83t Grazie mille, Isi! Gentilissima :**

E' un personaggio che sento molto di conseguenza i tuoi complimenti giungono ancora più graditi.

Ho visto da freefans che ti stai dando ad un recupero matto e disperato xD Mi fa piacere. Mi mancavano i tuoi commenti.
