DIRECTOR’S NOTES

Back to iMovie from DaVinci Resolve for this Scene Remix, which should see a return to the quality you're used to.

This is the first Scene Remix where I don't present all the scenes in their original order, as there's a little surprise at the end that demonstrates how great The Wire's foreshadowing is by showing how the storylines all lead back to the beginning somehow; it's this characteristic of the show that truly makes it the Dark Souls of television, which for nonnerds is a videogame where the levels take on labyrinthine paths that ultimately lead back to the beginning of the level where you started.

Season 2 is mostly my favorite season (it wins 65% of the time when put up against Season 3), and Rawls is one of my favorite characters, so I was very happy to put this Scene Remix together showing how McNulty frustrates and ultimately thwarts Rawls' best efforts to sentence McNulty to a watery grave.

I employed a number of dissolve transitions in this Scene Remix and they turned out well both in their timing and for storytelling purposes for example I really liked how the question to McNulty "where don't you want to go" dissolving into the helicopter turned out, it was like a Forrest Gump forward jump in time.

I also decided to leave in some of the aftermath of McNulty's revenge, i.e. the bar scene and then Jay assigning the dock murders to Bunk/Lester, because both scenes are rich in levity and I particularly like Cole's smiley face in response to whether Beadie is pretty or not.
