Better Call Saul border scene

Watching this after the Scriptnotes episode where Vince Gilligan explained how doing it this way was all the director’s idea, how she pitched it to them, walked them through it. Exceptional stuff, and worth remembering that TV is a collaborative medium.

dave porter is vince's right hand man

When a side antagonist gets the best ost track in the entire show, you know this is PEAK FICTION...

Hi everyone! Jesus loves you all and died for your sins. Believe in Him and you will be saved! Have a blessed day or night everyone! 😊💜

Who else was praying that nothing would be found in the ice cream truck?

Jimenez is the man! 😂

I miss watching BCS, gotta watch it again

Amazing how most of the stationary trucks and the entire checkpoint its self is actually CGI, you would never know!

The only thing that they got really wrong was that any truck crossing the border of any NAFTA/USMCA country would have to have a seal on the back door even if it's empty......

One of the very, very best series ever. I’m old and I know.

superbly shot. I wonder they got the one continuous shot...drone?

Not watching this stupid fucking clip.

all to stop drugs from entering America, that everyone actually wants to enter America, but needs plausible deniability that they actually dont want them in America. Police trying to stop drugs in our country is like a farmer trying to stop aphids from eating his corn. its futile, pointless, and meaningless, a wasted career, pursuit , & life. the infinitely smarter response, would be to stop trying to paddle up river, & instead learn to swim with it, safely.

best foreshadowing evar

Stunning. One of the very best long-takes in all of filmdom.

The buildup of this scene is amazing.

Great stuff. I think I'll go rewatch the intro to the Orson Welles film Touch of Evil, which was similarly cool

Super OST!!!!!

this scene is a master class

I wonder if they did it at a real border, or built the whole thing, or if most is CGI

Ford Crown Victoria the most featured car in movies and my fav car since I was 5yrs old

Where did they get all the old cabover trucks?

I’m currently crossing the border right now 🤫

Just an FYI- They would have easily found the drugs in that truck. The dogs would have sniffed it out so fast,if not the X-ray would expose it clear as day.

I want a Crown Vic

so much and nothing taking place all at once

Amazing. Peter and Vince actually honed their craft to perfect with BCS. I see BrBa and BCS as the same series.

How did they not find the drugs in that truck?

This scene, jesse looking for todds money, and the fly scenes are so good.

This is best music piece from BCS. I also love tune down by Chris joss. And Dead freight from breaking bad. Brilliant pieces

Fifi, Season 2 Episode 8

One of My favorite openings but nothing can beat the Los Pollos Hermanos opening

Masterpiece

This goes so hard holy

Exquisitely crafted scene. Has this ASMR quality. Lot of the scenes in BCS do.

must have taken agers to get this scene done

Dave Porter rocks

I thought the whole scene was practical, didn't know about the cgi trucks/crossing

Vince: "I want to do a Goodfellas long shot in the opening of a random episode."
Crew: "k."

THIS SHOW IS A MASTERPIECE GUYS I WISH I FORGET ALL THE EPISODES AND REWATCH ALL THE SHOW AGAIN

Can you reupload at EVEN LOWER resolution? We don't see it blurrily enough... also put more subtitles in random ass languages.

Why isn't Mexico yellow in this scene? 🤔

I love the sountrack

This is more than cinema

The boarder is no joke. Until Biden turned it into one. Let's not forget our wonderful Boarder Czar...

Komt niet vaak voor dat een nederlander deze serie kijkt, en wat vondt je ervan?

This is 2002 or 2003. So the increased strict security makes sense.

This scene is definitely up there with South Park's Amazon scene.

I love long continuous shots like this.
