The matched shots and alien coffee stain you might have missed on Fargo

In this week’s assiduously cordial Polite Fight, Gus and John talk once again about the ever-enigmatic character of Peggy by examining parallel shots before and after her sudden decision to stand by her husband, Ed “The Butcher” Blumquist. John notes a drastic switch in color schemes between the two shots—a sickly green palate when Peggy is about to run away and a brighter frame with splashes of red when she takes the bus back home—and Gus focuses on the motion of the camera (or lack thereof) as it might relate to Peggy’s plight.
