The Lostie-a-Day-a-Thon : [link]
Life has been busy and these are rather late. Sorry!
Lost is full of tumultuous couples, flings, partners, random sexual encounters and spouses. Aside from Rose and Bernard, there seem to be rather few normal loves on (and off) the Island.
Enter Eloise Hawking and Charles Widmore, whose 'business' makes even Richard Alpert cringe and roll his eyes and label as 'complicated.' Their (ferocious? Bitchy? Bizarre?) love spawned one of the coolest Losties, though, so all is forgiven.
Eloise has proven to be a fascinating character. We first see her as an ambiguous ring lady haunting Desmond's visions, and badly photoshopped into a picture with that monk fellow. Because of these initial tastes, it was more of a treat to see her in season 5, slowly revealed. A gun-totin' badass chick in the 50s, Dan's crazy mum with an ominous smile and underground lair in present day, and as the hardcore leader of the Others in the rockin' 70s.
Widmore... Widmore is not a lovable character. He's gruff, seemingly heartless, intimidating, mysterious, and willing to do what it takes to get what he wants. Even more so than Eloise, Widmore has been an interesting character to watch evolve. You could always have a sense that there was something much deeper and darker to his character than just a power-hungry man in a suit... somehow, it wasn't a huge shock to see him pop up later on in such a different context.
What was the full story of Widmore, and of Eloise? There seems to be nothing but bitterness between them by their visit in 'The Variable.' Who does Eloise work with, or for? What are her goals? What about Widmore? Who are the good guys?
My new catchphrase "hopefully season 6 will bring us some answers!" seems to sum it up.
One thing I've always loved about Lost is the casting of younger versions of a known character. Sometimes it's absolutely perfect; teenaged Locke and young Ben couldn't have been better if they'd time-teleported a youthful Terry and Michael. Eloise and Widmore posed an interesting issue; three ages, and three different actors.
Widmore's portayers somehow all have the SAME upsidedown-smile of a scowl. Seriously, I thought 70s Widdy was just Alan Dale with a wig on for the longest time. Little Chuck also looks just like the kid who played Paul on Coronation St. Just saying.
<digression> Doing the Lost re-watch! Just finished 'Solitaire.' Good GOD, Sayid is a great character. Though I hate to admit it, s1 makes me want Kayid really badly. Seriously, that would have been a badass combo. Also, it was before Kate became completely irritating
