Debbie, eyes front !!


I especially like that part. I don't know if anyone else have notice it, but I think the director have handled it really well that:

When Mrs. Wilkinson said her goodbye and return to class, Billy wanted to say goodbye to Debbie too, but he couldn't walk into the middle of the class and nor could she come out. The scene leaves Billy standing alone watching, and then you hear Mrs. Wilkinson called out "Debbie, eyes front!". Debbie sees Billy one last time before he leaves, she obviously want to say her goodbye too!

There was no fancy flashbacks or interchange cutting, just one single long short, but we all know that the two get to see each other once more time before parted.

I love that scene!



Classics are names that everyone heard, yet most have never seen!!

Yeah you're right, it was rather amazingly done, as soon as the teacher said that I knew that Debbie was watching after Billy which was very poignant.
Very subtly done and great direction :)

Yeah, it was a really nice way of doing it, not actually showing Debbie watching Billy leave, but we know she was.
