Symbolic Imagery in Breaking Bad
One of my favorite things about Breaking Bad, besides EVERYTHING, is the imagery. It's truly an art that they seemed to have mastered. But some of the imagery might not be what it seems. What are symbolic images used in the shows that alot of viewers may not notice or overlook. There are quite a few...
My favorite is in Season 3's "One Minute" episode. There is a scene where Walt visits Jesse at the hospital for the second time, by himself. As Walt walks in and take a seat, he is lined up directly with a picture hanging on the wall. That picture is a "Stairway to Heaven". It's clear as day, but is blended in so well that the typical viewer would pay no attention. I find it very symbolic bc Walt is on a "stairway to heaven". Very powerful stuff! Coincidence? I think not.
There are other moments in Breaking Bad like this, anyone have some to share?
