What follows is the episode’s most visually surreal story line, as Wellick, Elliot and Elliot’s Mr. Robot persona wander through the woods in search of the closest town. It’s a starkly lit journey with the bright moonlight casting shadows and reflecting off the snow. In a smart bit of staging, the three men are nearly always shown marching from the right side of the screen to the left — forcing the viewer’s eye to reverse its normal left-to-right movement and almost subliminally making the trek seem more arduous.
I reviewed last night’s episode of Mr. Robot for the New York Times.
