Season 7 has given the showrunners certain creative license to do things like the voiceover battle of Casterly Rock and a wordless, terrible farewell to the Sand Snakes, but that shouldn't come at the cost of further excitement and character development.
"Ordinary Witnesses," shown at New York Live Arts in 2011, was partly a docudrama about people's efforts to convey the effect of mass killings and political brutality, partly a dance quintet that suggested the wordless consequences of such violence on individuals.
This week, he shows off a different side of his artistry — including wordless scat riffs — in the role of Charlie Parker for the New York premiere of "Yardbird," an opera by the composer Daniel Schnyder and the librettist Bridgette A. Wimberly.
And yet I watch an episode of TV like "Voyeurs," an almost wordless half-hour installment of HBO's anthology series Room 104 told largely through dance, and it's not hard to feel the dim echo of all of that promise.
So do various moments involving Miriam's cerebral palsy: not the wordless opening scene, where she slowly hauls her small frame up some stairs, but the times when Ed and Hannah clumsily betray their ignorance — exchanges that come across as blatantly didactic.
In recurrent, wordless pages throughout, with his clean and fluid black line art,, Williams illustrates the rhythm of Lois's professional routine through whom and what she encounters: an assortment of faces, body parts and affects streaming by in an even staccato.
And with the "Johny" meme, that weird, wordless WTF quality seems to have gained a viral memetic quality, as the internet's good citizens try to reconcile the hypnotic humor of these videos with the hilariously dark implications of Johny's domestic situation.
The screen's format also helps establish a personal connection with the viewer (underscored by the frequency with which the film's characters stare directly, and unnervingly, into the camera) — a wordless, intuitive bond that is essential to the comprehension of the piece.
In France, Iceland's fans seized the public imagination with the unlikeliness of their existence, while intimidating opponents with their trademark Viking thunderclap, a wordless, drum-led clapping chant that starts out slow and gets faster and faster until its powerful climax.
In the wordless swaths of time that insulate each scene, and the much longer periods of sprawl between episodes, you may find your imagination rejecting the comfortable closure of answers, turning instead to the ever-unfurling suspense of the present.
Working with black and white and hatched shading patterns, Berlin is purposefully drawn to resemble wordless novels of the '20s — an offshoot of German Expressionism which crossed with antique woodcut techniques to form an early ancestor of the modern comic book.
GLYNDEBOURNE FESTIVAL, JUNE 24 Brett Dean's "Hamlet," a new operatic adaptation of the classic play, is full of dazzling moments: eerie shudders of percussion sent electronically around the hall, an offstage chorus forming wordless halos of sound around certain lines.
Your bare tribute, "noble," to La Farge's painting in Ascension Church,makes me surmise you were wordless in wonderat how that tiny chapel could contain the altarpiece with an Americanlargeness: lank disciples watch the god soaruntil seeing is all they are.

More explicit is "We Suck Young Blood," based around a comically despondent piano progression, intentionally flubbed handclap percussion, and a wordless falsetto hook that recalls the sheet-wearing, "I got a rock" variety of ghost instead of more malevolent spirits.
Think about it: Kevin Garvey Sr. (Scott Glenn, in a terrific, often wordless, performance) goes halfway around the world in pursuit of an Aboriginal song that he hopes will help him avert a global flood that will end the world.
The opening bars, featuring an upward-zipping electric bass flourish, foreshadow the song's wordless coda — one of Mr. White's signature triumphs, a waft of ahhhs that can only be described as the most perversely chromatic crowd-pleasing singalong in popular music history.
Interstate Gospel isn't a blustering rock album or a cautiously intricate folk album or a slab of musical taxidermy; it includes rock songs and folk songs, tangled knots of riffage ("Sugar Daddy") and mournful weepers that build to wordless cathartic moments ("Leavers Lullaby").
VR directors working together with interactive music composers and implementors can begin to pull back the veil on what is possible in interactive music design, treating music as the wordless narrator that guides us through virtual worlds and glues the narrative together.
"Beacon" starts out as a small string ensemble and then an acoustic, fingerpicked, undulating waltz — "I fall into your mind's eye," RY X sings — but by the end it is awash in electric-guitar feedback and his incantatory voice, singing wordless ahs.
The superb opening sequence, set to Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers's karaoke-ready duet, "Islands in the Stream," details the domestic bliss at Clark Acres Farms, where the Clarks have settled into a pleasing routine: puzzle-solving, flossing, snuggling — all in wordless harmony.
One of the most meticulous heist movies ever made, Jean-Pierre Melville charts every single step as his characters work through even the littlest of details of their plot, culminating in a wordless half-hour sequence in which they finally execute it.
She makes no defense against this wordless revelation: if she could stand naked before God, silent just like this, free of all the noise about who she is and how God feels about her, she might rise above it and become St. Annie.
We inhabit every unbearable second of limbo: magazine-spread houses with books under lock and key, bedrooms with nothing sharp in eyesight, the endless and wordless rape, and the constant sidelong glances that convey everything this world has choked out of women.
Although vocalese remained the group's emphasis, its repertoire also included a number of songs for which Mr. Hendricks wrote the music as well as the lyrics, and many of their songs were used as springboards for their own flights of wordless improvisation.
MATTHEW ANDERSON AT 1 MINUTE 34 SECONDS Steven Mackey is far from the first composer to try his hand at the Orpheus myth, but he may be the first to treat it in what he calls a wordless opera for electric guitar.
Five episodes in, there are still no gay bachelor parties in sight on Westworld — and they sure as hell aren't in Alonso's group sex Batcave, where the most basic fantasies rule and no one having sex gets much to say beyond wordless moans.
His expressive hands cut through the air during this or that interview, speaking a wordless language of their own, as the former boy preacher from Harlem, small, dark, and compact, talks and talks about race, sounding like no one else on earth.
It's a rake and a shovel left in a pile of leaves in Central Park, like a wordless out-of-office message, and the liberty to march carelessly down the middle of the park's streets as though they were closed just for you.
She released her first full-length comic, D.U.I.I, at the recent LA Book Arts Fair, and although the narrative is totally wordless, the comic is so rich with linear imagery that it keeps the reader both awed and repelled from cover to cover.
This presumably represented, in wordless, abbreviated form, the multiple deaths in the battle and suicide scenes of Acts IV and V. Some speculate that Shakespeare did not write these later parts of Julius Caesar, as they are inferior to the splendid beginning.
She was last seen on Broadway in the Duke Ellington jazz musical "After Midnight," and one of the night's high points was a wailing rendition of Ellington's wordless "Creole Love Call" by Carmen Ruby Floyd, an original cast member and one of her backup singers.
Wearing "I Stand with Brett" and "Women for Kavanaugh" T-shirts, a group of about 533 women cut a path through the crowd of protestors assembled in the atrium of the Hart Senate Office Building on Thursday, largely wordless but speaking volumes with their confidence.
This game, the long-awaited follow-up to Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP by Capy, is a slow, dark, tense descent into a mysterious cave; it's almost totally wordless and shown with a pulled-back perspective that makes things feel both twee and terrifying.
Recorded from the voices of local volunteers, the wordless soundtrack resonated most when I stood before vinyl remnants Hirose had rescued from Cascade Record Press, melted down and reconstructed into small, contorted, black masses that reminded me of Heidi Schwegler's "Phantom Limb," back in Clatskanie.
The entire point of a character like Angel / Archangel is the arc between who he was at the beginning and what he became, and when he's a gloomy, almost wordless thug throughout the entire process, he becomes an empty special effect, without any narrative power.
Richter's work is already steeped in dreams and elegy, but he doubled down, consulting with the neuroscientist David Eagleman to build its 31 sections, a soft fabric of string quartets, duets for piano and violin, his keyboard wanderings, drones, and the occasional wordless voice.
There are male voices in wordless close harmony, organ chords wafting like incense and, eventually, a choir and a cantorial soloist singing, "Hineni" — "Here I am" in Hebrew, the first word of an abject prayer for mercy sung during Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur.
The hourlong work, for 10 superbly strong and resilient dancers, opens with a wordless version of RJ Muna's time-lapse video documenting the creation of the elegant structure, a sort of stone tunnel housing a large, egg-shaped stone mass, over which rainwater can flow.
Often wordless for pages on end and drawn in simple, scratchy black and white (bar a few key pages), GLEEM occasionally turns into one big expanse, becoming a void as black as space itself in its attempts to articulate the overwhelming nature of isolation.
The constraints of its genre are too bizarre not to have been chosen deliberately, just as Wohl deliberately constrained "Small Mouth Sounds" by setting it at a wordless spiritual retreat, and "Make Believe" by using the playacting of children as a medium for dramatizing mistreatment.
The find on "Hitchhiker" is "Give Me Strength," the song of a "lonely man" desperate to find consolation: "Give me strength to move along/Give me strength to realize she's gone," he sings over steadfast strummed guitar chords, and "gone" turns into a wordless moan.
Chinn is probably best known for her captivating performance of Philip Glass's wordless aria in the recent revival of Einstein on the Beach, although science has long been a passion, including her co-hosting of the Scopes Monkey Choir podcast on science and music.
I think back to his direction of "The Magic of David Copperfield V: The Statue of Liberty Disappears" (still my choice for the show's best episode), and what was so striking about that was that nearly wordless opening montage of Martha leaving the US behind forevermore.
For instance, he inserted Julianne Nicholson as what was, on the page, a wordless, nameless interrogator, turning her into a character who serves as a witness and investigator to these men — a grad student recovering from an abrupt breakup by channeling her pain into an academic project.
Mr. Kovarsky had another high-profile, wordless role last year when he played one of the terrorists who kill a disabled Jewish passenger on a cruise ship in John Adams's "The Death of Klinghoffer" at the Metropolitan Opera — a production that drew protests from some Jewish groups.
Small and rail-thin, suggesting that even Mother Courage's hard bargain-driving cannot keep her family from edging toward starvation, Ms. Sithole provides the production with a moving emotional center, communicating through gestures, wordless yelps and wounded feeling in her eyes Kattrin's sensitivity, terror and, ultimately, nobility.
When Once Upon a Time begins, it observes Sharon from a remove — the neighbor living up the hill from Rick, married to the not-yet-disgraced Roman Polanski (played by Rafal Zawierucha in a near-wordless appearance), and the young and beautiful life of the party.
To write about it provides the illusion that it is within our control, like breathing; that we can admit it for a while, as in a moment of wordless wonder at morning frost or a blossoming tree, and then return to our blaring world refreshed and wiser.

The producer Danger Mouse (who shares production credits on the album with Inflo and, on a few tracks, Paul Butler) places Mr. Kiwanuka in a realm of string orchestras and wordless backup chorales, of rich reverb and staticky vintage-amp distortion, of unprogrammed drums and leisurely buildups.
Mr. Pai, who helped compose many of the show's wordless songs and served as the musical director for shows in several cities, said in an interview that he feels betrayed by one-time friends who he says assured him they would take care of him financially.

The Dorothy and Lillian Gish Prize, one of the most generous arts honors in the United States, has been awarded to the singer, composer and multidisciplinary artist Meredith Monk, whose wordless vocal pirouettes and otherworldly theater compositions have reverberated in New York and internationally for five decades.
FRANKFURT, Germany — It's a testament to the lasting influence of Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke's film "2001: A Space Odyssey," which turns 50 this week, that the disc-shaped card commemorating the German Film Museum's new exhibition on the film is wordless, but instantly recognizable.
The performances seem to have been wordless symbolic dramas, of a dark, bitter hilarity in the spirit of Antonin Artaud and Bertolt Brecht, though it's hard to recapture them, as the artist forbade filming and photography, and almost no record remains apart from descriptions by witnesses.
Cirque du Soleil's Blue Man Group (BMG), known internationally for their wild, wordless performances by men covered in shiny blue paint, have smeared blue on pretty much every surface you can imagine, according to their wardrobe and makeup supervisors, who've become laundry experts out of necessity.

In the image, captured by Doug Mills of The New York Times, and in other pool video footage, the internet saw acres of shade dispensed by a skilled politician firmly in control, and social media users immediately turned Ms. Pelosi's wordless gesture into a viral meme.
Killing Eve is much more interested in its characters than in reluctantly doling out of bits of mythology about its global conspiracy, while the climax of Big Little Lies was less about who committed the murder than about the moment of wistful, wordless solidarity that led to it.
To the outsider — in this writer's case, a white teen from the suburbs of Texas — it might be hard to conceive of the oft-wordless techno as revolutionary music; by the time I started hearing it in the early '90s, it certainly wasn't the relentless sound of Underground Resistance.
As Kyle Buchanan, Vulture's awards season savant, noted to the Bagger, it's interesting that Mr. DiCaprio could win for this raggedy, largely wordless role, considering the Oscar-nominated parts he has played before: kitten-faced autistic teenager, Wall Street hedonist, swashbuckling Hollywood golden boy/madman-in-waiting and gunrunner.
I like "Let Me Love You" a little more than "Cold Water," Bieber's recent collaboration with Major Lazer and MØ — it's a better showcase for his voice and I'm a sucker for those deep house synths, even if DJ Snake stole Skrillex's "dolphin" trick for the song's wordless hook.
During the many wordless stretches of the film, stretches in which one hears car horns and the sound of bulldozers and the laughter of unseen children, and the long shots when the camera rests on Ershadi's face, Romi felt aware of herself watching, and the others also watching.
In an early scene, Ellie and her mother witness a funeral procession of a dead dog that borrows its aesthetic from the fox's wedding in Akira Kurosawa's Dreams: in creepy, handmade animal masks, wordless children beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly as they pass by.
In bed it was all body action, wordless, and in the interval that followed he lay alone, absently scratching, and reminded himself that he'd placed all the tubes and jars inside the medicine cabinet and in the small storage area beneath the sink, beyond her range of vision.
Somewhere in the third episode, I realized Vallée was capturing the feeling of loneliness as well as I've seen it depicted on television, and so much of that stems from his willingness to feature his actresses in long, wordless sequences where they just live with their pain, all alone.
Produced by the Morán Group and Teatro SEA, the Latino theater for children, the festival includes Compañía la Bicicleta's wordless "Nana Raíz," about a sleepless baby and a mystical dream world, and WonderSpark Puppets' "Fox Fables," whose titular creature loses his tail and, with it, his sense of self.
It's short and completely wordless, and it would still be weird and interesting outside VR. But the headset forces viewers to focus completely on both its sad moments and its skin-crawling ones — which, at this point, is one of the best reasons to make a VR movie.
On "There They Are," which closes the disc, lyrics about a simple pleasure — catching one's own reflection in a puddle while biking down a wet road — give way to luminescent, wordless singing; Victor's open vowels find harmonic resonance with Jones's saxophone, swaying along to Hughes's steady drift below. RUSSONELLO
The apes pause to witness the aftermath of the carnage they have narrowly escaped, and their wordless, shocked response, registered above all on the face of Caesar, their leader, is an eloquent rebuke to a species that has abandoned any but a biological claim to the name human.
Because the show is mostly wordless and largely low-risk (poor Austin Bradley appears as a lion tamer without a lion), the focus is on the athleticism of the troupe and the precision of the tricks, with attention given to every cocked hip, angled wrist and pointed toe.
He doesn't hit the same heights as he did in the season six finale (which opened with that nearly wordless montage of Cersei destroying her enemies, scored largely to one of his best pieces of music), but "Dragon" was some of his best work all season long nonetheless.
It's strange, this wordless language we have, the passage of miniature Toblerone from vacation taker to non-vacation taker, this infinite contract we sign with our work colleagues to always bring them small duty-free snacks to them after having the temerity to take annual leave, this bizarre ritual we have.
But that doesn't negate the power of Downey's scenes—they don't soft-soap his pain (this is not some glammed-up, Love Story bullshit)—or his performance, which includes a bedside farewell that's tender and true, and an eyebrow raise that's one of the finest wordless reactions I've ever seen.
So I'll instead highlight a later scene that's informed by that weirdly iconic line in ways both humorous and chilling: the omelet stare-down, one of the most oddly tense and compelling wordless scenes I've ever seen on film, one that still makes me squirm a little just thinking about it.
But I don't need to come to The Handmaid's Tale to find it, and it's never going to give me anything as shocking or sickening as, for instance, Moira and June trading wordless looks of horror at the Red Center as they realize exactly what their new role as Handmaids entails.
Over the years, they've dealt in the quiet fury of tremolo-picked guitar lines, deathly folk pieces, and wordless synthesizer drones alike, but all their cacophonous sounds have been united by a sort of grand spaciousness—a cavernous echo of the grandeur and fury of the world that surrounds them.
Twice in my five innings of calling my first game (it was stopped because of rain), I found myself reduced to silence, wordless to describe why a shot off the bat of Cabrera that looked like it was going to hit the second baseman instead hit the wall in right-centerfield.
But his performance is a monster nonetheless; note the quiet little catch in his voice when he answers Exley's question about why he became a cop ("I don't remember"), his wordless reaction in the scene after they meet Lana Turner, and how he plays one of the great modern movie death scenes.
But "Part 8" of Twin Peaks: The Return proved not so easily digestible — surging with wordless, experimental imagery, intimations of cosmological enigmas, and a disturbing boldness, the then newest entry into David Lynch and Mark Frost's beloved series was immediately hailed for raising — or least deranging — TV's bar, the peakiest of all.
The fable-like story of a man who washes up on what seems to be a desert island — where he meets a giant red turtle that turns out to be more than it seems — is simple and universal, and communicated exclusively through music, the occasional wordless exclamation, and, primarily, lush storybook visuals.
One of those previously-unheralded voices that I discovered via Room 104 is Seattle-based choreographer Dayna Hanson, who wrote and directed the sixth episode, "The Voyeurs," which is a wordless dance film in which the motel housekeeper does a modern ballet with her younger self (Flesh and Bones star Sarah Kay).
Those Shrines also work as free-form, nearly wordless tutorials of their own: An early Shrine I found taught me that if you hit objects after you use Stasis on them, they retain (and build up) the kinetic force you put into them, blasting off into the distance the second your stasis ends.
While the actual Tudor Cinema photos depicted a car crash death — not the shooting imagined by de Radiguès and Mannaert — the point is that some of Weegee's pioneering photojournalism, developed for wire services in the darkroom of a car trunk (craftily shown here within a stretch of wordless panels), was often staged.
Spotify has also been accused of secretly controlling the rights to these songs — atmospheric, wordless tracks on mood-focused playlists with titles like "Deep Sleep" and "Peaceful Piano" — an arrangement that, if true, would allow the company to reduce the amount of money it pays in royalties to record labels and "real" artists.
In part one of this interview, Ehasz and Richmond discussed some of the major story beats from season 2, including how they balanced their villains to make them so appealing, what effects dark magic has on its users, and why season 2 has so many long, wordless sequences as part of the storytelling process.
In honor of throwback Thursday, The Art of Racing in the Rain star shared a rare image of her now-2-year-old daughter taken on what appeared to be the day of her birth, where she breastfed the newborn from bed as she and her older sister Jennifer shared a heartfelt, seemingly wordless moment.
But First Man is at its strongest when focusing on purely human moments, whether it's the intimate gesture of Armstrong stroking his dying daughter's feathery blonde hair, or the almost wordless emotion and awe he feels as he first sets eyes on the moon up close, after staring at it from afar for so long.
While most of Ghost in the Shell's best scenes (the violent, slow-motion ballet that kicks off the film; an eerie raid on the villain's headquarters midway through) are wordless, you also have to make it through annoying moments when characters talk tediously on and on about grand abstractions like Humanity and The Soul.
Along the way, he meets people who respond to him and help him — a weary old man in a tin-can hat, a drained but hopeful musician — but their nature doesn't become clear until the end of the film, when Abreu's abstract, wordless, stream-of-conscious storytelling finally matures into something more structurally ambitious.
And some of them stay there, deliberately exposed and vulnerable, like "Selah," which longs for a spiritual rebirth above the harmonies of a distant, wordless choir, or "Right Now," which sets her voice trembling above a lone electric guitar as she makes a simple, increasingly anxious plea: "Don't you dare say tomorrow," she sings.
Every once in a while he would impart some wisdom, like "every pore is a sphincter," or note that he was applying a face mask made with Manuka honey, and I would make some kind of affirmative noise and then go back to a place of wordless ecstasy as he worked on my skin.
And the yarns spun by old Aunt Maggie Far Away (Brid Brennan), who spends much of her time in a wordless trance that might be mistaken for senility, feature the dismemberment of faerie warriors and are steeped in an erotic longing for the golden lad she once loved from a distance, now long disappeared.
Screening in a side room at ArtisTree are excerpts from Yang Fudong's drop-dead gorgeous, and rather wordless, though not entirely silent, black-and-white masterpiece Seven Intellectuals in a Bamboo Forest (2003–2007): a five-part cinematic saga that retells the story of third-century literati youth from the Wei and Jin Dynasty.
Heck, the first song on their first full-length album is called "Flower," with a grinding groove that's massaged by Cornell's third-eye-prying wordless hums and Kim Thayil's sitar-like guitar textures (a feature that would color subsequent tracks such as Superunknown's "Like Suicide," all the way up to King Animal's "A Thousand Days Before").
But with all the heartache and hardship that await the show's young lovers, Andy's daughter, Magnolia (Lee Harrington), and the handsome gambler Gaylord Ravenal (John Preator), and Magnolia's best friend, the Cotton Blossom's reigning diva, Julie Laverne (Sarah Hanlon), there is still room for laughter — one of the show's best jokes is a wordless one made by a costume.
Guttural and operatic, baleful and inconsolable, spiritual and earthy, polyglot and wordless, nuanced and unhinged — Diamanda Galás was all of those, and many more, in her concert on Tuesday night at the former St. Thomas the Apostle, a deconsecrated neo-Gothic church in Harlem where the Red Bull Music Academy Festival booked her for three nights.
Film Forum Jr., a program that introduces the young to classic cinema, is starting its fall season with "The Red Balloon," or "Le Ballon Rouge," Albert Lamorisse's nearly wordless French project from 1956, which stars Pascal Lamorisse (the director's son, then 6) as he follows the object of the title through the Belleville section of Paris.
Seeing structures like Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret's 1925 Villa La Roche in Paris on the same page as Tidy Arquitectos's equally blocky 2008 Schkolnick House in Santiago, or Loos's 1910 Steiner House in Vienna mingling with the similarly cubic 2011 Rieteiland House by Hans van Heeswijk in Amsterdam, does have some wordless communication about this heritage.
Advertise on Hyperallergic with Nectar Ads The Latvian-American director Yana Ross transposed German playwright Franz Xaver Kroetz's wordless 1971 Request Concert into a song of loneliness very much of today, in a production at BAM Fisher, October 26 to 29, 2016, featuring the Polish stage and screen star Danuta Stenka in a silent, detailed solo performance.
The Bug Boys find a treasure map, celebrate their Coming-of-Age Festival under the Great Chrysalis, get in a big fight and make up, travel from their Bug Village to broker a peace between warring Bees and Termites, and — in one gorgeous wordless sequence deep in a dark cave — expand their hearts and minds and friendship.
In Volker Schlöndorff's excellent 1979 film adaptation, which won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and an Academy Award as best foreign-language film, Oskar was played by the 11-year-old David Bennent, in an intense but largely wordless performance, amid Mr. Schlöndorff's opulent and often surreal recreation of Grass's hometown, Danzig (now Gdansk, Poland), under Nazi control.
After releasing an "Aladdin" trailer with a very blue Will Smith that unsettled viewers, Disney has quickly bounced back with a thrilling teaser for another much-anticipated movie: "Frozen II." In the stirring, wordless trailer, Elsa (Idina Menzel) ice-surfs across the ocean, while her sister, Anna (Kristen Bell), wields a sword, giving off a timely girl-power vibe.
My jam in "Where the Wild Things Are" is not the famous six-page wordless sequence in which Max and the Wild Things have a "wild rumpus" — even though, yes, it's an enduring reminder of the importance of letting loose now and then (surely that's what Ronnie had in mind for my upstanding mom as she turned 40).
He has heard all of that, and then he has gone home, and he has flicked open his social media accounts and been confronted with all of that wordless, inchoate abuse given form: strangers, anonymous and legion, wishing all manner of ills on him and his family because he has misplaced a pass or shot from range or lost possession.
A wordless tour of the titular west German city of less than 200,000, it is a symphony of a small city, flickering through signs of looming industrialization to alight on moments of workaday beauty: a young girl dancing with fantastic abandon in a street; building interiors peopled with card players and folks drinking beer; smokestacks loitering in the background of cityscape views.
And yet the episode's tense climactic set piece is innovative and deftly paced: a wordless infiltration of David's house by the rescue team, which culminates in an assassination attempt by the merciless mutant-hunter, the Eye, and a reality shift through David's white room into an asylum where he and his fellow mutants find themselves under the tender mercies of "Doctor" Lenny.
This year's Rojus EP was a fantastic dance document, and the epic "Blush" was its crown jewel; a glowy shapeshifter centered around an anthemic chorus and wordless screams, "Blush" was one of 2016's trippiest big-room jams, a song designed to literally blow your mind to the point where you just might stop dead in your tracks in the middle of the dancefloor.
Wordless but verbal, a prolific utterer of expressive sounds — soft ahhs and mmmms and buhs for happy feelings, and tooth-cracking, high-pitched screams for all manner of discontentment — Cal is a good person with whom to share privacy; he is a gentle and responsive companion for an only child like me, whose energy is drained after too much conversation and recharged by solitude.
She stood there for some time, until the blue had thickened to near-blackness, and she entered a spell of heavy dreaming or quietude such as can open out sometimes in youth if the person is to be an artist, and now the stars came through, and when she heard his wordless shuffling behind her to break the spell she walked away through the yard and did not once look back.
The sharpest songs focus on beleaguered individuals whose grievances are somehow emblematic: "Halls of Sarah," whose protagonist/victim suffers all the indignities male artists have inflicted upon female muses, which eventually inspires Case to overdub her own wordless humming into a makeshift choir; or "Last Lion of Albion," about the last member of a dying breed, as the marching drums and frantically strummed acoustic guitars mimic the lion's nobility and desperation.
Although Iceland crashed out in its subsequent match, humbled by France — "We kind of had a flat tire," Hallgrimsson said of the 5-2 defeat — the team returned to Iceland to find 100,000 people, nearly a third of the national population, massing at Keflavik International Airport, lining up along the (two-lane) highway and gathering in central Reykjavik, where they performed the intimidating but wordless Viking thunderclap chant that the fans had rolled out at the tournament.
It features taut guest verses from YG and Offset, but 2 Chainz bests them with plain-spoken charm: "Me and momma used to trap out the same houseUsed to eat and go to sleep on the same couchMe and momma got busted at the same timeWent to court and told judge the damn same lies" JON CARAMANICA "Worth It" starts out like it might be restful and languid: a little guitar picking, some wordless sustained singing, and Haley Heynderickx — a songwriter from Portland, Ore.
When we look back on this show in the decades to come, thinking about its finest hours, I can't help but imagine that we'll revisit many moments from this episode, from that nearly wordless, heart-rending prologue to that scene where Philip and Elizabeth argue about est but aren't really arguing about est; from the look of relief on Matthew Rhys's face when Gabriel grants Philip and Elizabeth a reprieve to the graceful transition from now to "7 months later," which overcame the potential hackiness of a time jump.
En route, they pick up a couple of wayfarers—Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), who is in the same trade as Ruth, and Mannix (Walton Goggins), who says, "I'll be double dog damned!" and who will soon be assuming the post of Red Rock's sheriff * The coach arrives at Minnie's, where the rest of the lineup is assembled: a Mexican named Bob (Demián Bichir), an old Confederate general (Bruce Dern), a near-wordless hulk (Michael Madsen), and a fussy little Brit, who introduces himself as Oswaldo Mobray (Tim Roth).
But after a couple of episodes seemingly devoted to Stone and Chandra beating down every door they could think of to find somebody else who might have committed the crime, it feels a little strange that Ray had previously been relegated to a nearly wordless cameo during Andrea's funeral (one seemingly positioned just to show that Ray would be played by the fairly well known character actor Paulo Costanzo — and thus allowing some viewers to ask, "Hey, why is Paulo Costanzo playing a glorified extra?" and start wondering).
