Featured review
"We're married. We've already jumped" is merely one line of dialog taken from an episode that has more in common with the writing in Sorkin's THE NEWSROOM than any other series I am aware of. This extraordinary episode has more emotional highs than Rocky and, coincidentally, was rolled out just about the same time that (a) a SEASON 2 was green-lighted; and (b) the press twigged to the fact that HACF is in fact loosely based on a real story, namely, the story of how Compaq came from nowhere and "exploited" a "vulnerability" in IBMs original PC (namely that in a rush to market their skunkworks had used off the shelf, non protected, components. IBM would later try to correct the error with PS/2 but would fail to stop the compatibility revolution).
An incredible episode in a ground-breaking series. All the actors are extraordinary but the scenes between newcomer ("Lana Turner discovery") Mackenzie Davis and Lee Pace are unforgettable. Pace could read the phone book and make it interesting. Davis has an extraordinary face that the camera simply cannot get enough of -- she always seems about to burst into tears, or a smile, and the viewer never knows which.
Wow.
