Crying Lovers / Dominic West: "The Affair" (two)

**Posted by Squonk** February 18, 2017 11:28 pm

Thank you abcd1234, for the Dominic West recommendation. I've never seen him do a crying scene before (any others out there?). Two terrific scenes from The Affair:
Episode 3.5, starts at about 44:00 (a long scene, but really beautiful):

Episode 3.9, starts at about 47:00:

Oh god it's amazing how slowly he begins to cry. He takes a beautifully, agonizingly long time from the first glint of tears gathering to the freely flowing tears and gasps and sobs.

I clipped the one from 3x5. EDIT: this new link as of 1/3/22 should work. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AMbwWVtnzKEZQm3gg0iRR2jd2tFUqbed/view?usp=sharing

Phoebe! There is no video for the clip - just sound! Help! (Oh, and BTW - I do have other clips that you wanted to see, like Robert Sheehan...give me a few hours/days and I will post them! )

No sound? Dammit! I'll see what's going on.
Edit: I'm puzzled too because the sound works fine for me.

No, no! The sound is fine - there is no video! And anything like the above that says LuckTV is gone now cause they charge.

Oh oh I understand now. Damn I don't understand why but there's no picture. Not in my google lachrimatory, not in my computer. I'll have to re-record. Thanks for letting me know!

I did some investigating and it may be because my graphics driver is out of date. I am working on a *checks device info* seven-year-old computer that needs an update. If the new update doesn't sufficiently fix the driver, I may need to figure something else out.

As far as other crying scenes, I know he had at least two if not three in the PBS Les Miserables where he played Jean Valjean. I just can't find the links online.

OMG that sounds like it could be amazing! Dominic is a lovely actor. I've liked him ever since The Forgotten, where he almost cried, and he was really good in The Awakening, where alas he didn't cry at all.
