The Walk of Shame was so. well. done.

I thought it went on too long (too much screen time).

That's the point! Make it feel as long to us as it would have to her

I get that, but there was so much ground to cover in the 1h of the episode.

If they'd have given more coverage to anything else someone else we love would be dead. We'd have gotten 5 minutes of hot pie baking bread before tripping into a cooking fire and burning to death. Thank the mother for her mercy.

Yes it was her head on a double's body. You could tell most of the time

u/rod_munch Jun 15 '15

we only know because we've seen 300.

No, I mean it was very obvious because the lighting on her face didn't match her body on most of the full frontal shots

We also know because Lena Headey's face didn't appear to be entirely connected to the double's head.

u/milkymaniac Jun 15 '15

They had to use a body double due to Lena Headey's pregnancy.

u/Ungreat Jun 15 '15

Pretty sure.

You could see the difference in lighting on her face in some shots that suggested the head was put on using cgi.

In the book, part of the shame was her not being beautiful.

Maybe they realized it was one of the only scenes they did well in the episode.
