thought about Charles Vane

I rewatched the scene of his death

(spoilers ahead)

and realised that he doesn’t wait for the British to kill him – he finishes his speech and STEPS OFF THE CART. Of course, he beats the Brits by one moment, but that moment is important: he chooses when to die. A number of Resistance fighters did exactly that in various countries during WWII. And also some prisoners in concentration camps, when they were being “executed” for trying to escape or for organising acts of resistance.

“Well, you say you’ll be teaching me to fight. But if every man fights differently, seems to me what you’ll really be teaching me is how to defeat you.”

John Silver Appreciation Week, Monday – Favourite Scene

Many of them won’t want to hear it. Don’t you want to discuss how you’ll approach them? I know what I’m doing.

#call the police

One of the tenderest moments, second only to the sword-training scene imo. My jury is still out re. “was Flint aware or unaware that Silver was lying”, but I am a little more inclined to believe “aware”, because of (1) Flint’s sudden exit from the room, after all the previous show of affection (2) the sudden “daylight” between Flint and Silver for the first two eps of S 3.

GREAT vid!

why does this look like Flint had someone in his lap but they evaporated
