@alexfurnas1263 6 жыл бұрын

For a single-episode character meant to show the death toll of a major battle without sacrificing any regulars, Karsi was actually pretty effective, in large part because nobody (except for perceptive book readers) had any idea the Hardhome scene would go the direction it did. For all intents and purposes when the main conflict of the scene was "Jon Snow and Tormund have to win over suspicious wildlings", Karsi seemed like a new regular being introduced up until the moment you realize this is a massacre scene and she's just said goodbye to her kids. At that point you can pretty much tell she's a goner, but it still has weight to it because of the way the scene had set her up beforehand.

It's always embarrassing to hear Norwegian people speak English without a script. Our accent is so awkward. Take Birgitte as a contrast. Her English is a lot more fluid, even though Danish and Norwegian are similar in many ways. Harsh, clipped sounds, not at all melodic like Swedish.

There need to be more productions like GoT, not even mentioning the amazing acting, world building, and writing, the appreciation for the VFX guys and the extras in just amazing. Hearing Kit Harrington explain how their extras were out there in the same conditions for even longer than they were and were just as important as him and his fellow main cast was just incredibly gratifying to extras and bit part actors everywhere!

The girl who plays the Wildling, "Karsi," Birgitte Hjort Sørensen, is actually a very beautiful Danish actress, singer, and dancer, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aLp-YK9l3K2reIU.html (she was in, "Pitch Perfect 2," and, "Automata," etc.) and although she only appeared in this one episode, after her scene opening her eyes when the Night King raised the dead, her role has since become an iconic moment in the television history of Game of Thrones. I hope she appears, (lol killing Winterfell children,) in season 8.
