Review of Chapter 7: Fanny Briggs

I am a big fan of limited series and I'm loving the show so far, but wow once the credits rolled on this episode my jaw fell to the floor. I didn't peek at the runtime beforehand so I was wholly unprepared for how short this episode would be, but that just made it all the more powerful. What shots the Director of Photography chose to linger on, what dialogueless moments Barry Jenkins choose to include, it all came together so effectively and so uniquely I'm just in awe. Never seen anything like this before. The state named episodes were my favorite so far but this is a welcome interlude of sorts before what I'm sure will be a climactic finish. A home run!
