Regarding Alex and his scenes in BLL2: I'm hoping we see more of him in the last episode next week. It's of course possible that it was decided that what he shot wasn't going to work with what was wanted for the series.
But I'm wondering how much of what apparently actually happened behind the scenes has impacted what the director may have originally intended to make it to screen:

Big Little Lies’ Season 2 Turmoil: Inside Andrea Arnold’s Loss of Creative Control
HBO and David E. Kelley took the show away from Arnold, as executive producer Jean-Marc Vallée tried to return it to his S1 style.
Right from the first episode something has felt slightly disjointed about the second season of “Big Little Lies.” When the show isn’t in the flow of its recognizable style, there is a strange editorial tension – scenes are choppy, lacking any sense of internal rhythm. As it turns out, that friction was the product of a behind-the-scenes struggle that grew out of an attempt to remove the style of its director in post-production...
It was as Arnold started to assemble scenes that Kelley and HBO started to see there was a problem. Before Arnold and her London editing team were able to even complete an official cut of an episode, Vallée, now finished with work on “Sharp Objects,” started to take over. Post-production shifted from London to Vallée’s home city of Montreal, where his own editorial team started cutting what is now airing on HBO. Soon after, 17 days of additional photography were scheduled...

Drama in front of the cameras and behind. I loved Fish Tank and I'm sorry for Andrea Arnold. I wonder how different her version would have been.
Yes.A Skarsgard received an Emmy nomination today, but it's Stellan this time. Congrats anyway.

I have a question to those of you who have seen the recent pics of Alex where on his thumb he seems to have a black nail with a drawing of a white flower on it. He had a bandage on the upper side of his thumb on the picture a fan posted when she was getting her passaport in Sweden a few weeks back but it was the other hand. Plus there is no black finger at the fashion show pics from Italy. So I first assumed he recently caught this finger somewhere hence the black nail. Has anyone else noticed the this? If so is that really a painting of a white flower on it or am I seeing it wrong? Even though he is as goofy as can be, this doesn't make sence to me so I'm looking here for a second opinion???

The picture with the passport looks more like the tag of the shirt he’s holding than a bandage. I don’t think he’s hurt his hand since you can clearly see his hands at the fashion show days later and they look fine. I haven’t seen the pictures with the black nail.

Yes and as I mentioned the black nail is on the other hand so it cant be related to it even if it was a bandage. I only mentioned it because I thought members might think it was related. I wanted to point out it wasnt. And like you said it wasnt black at the fashion show, so yes this is new.
It's not a big deal to have a black nail. I got my finger stuck while slamming a door and had one too. But the white flower drawing is interesting, I just want to make sure if I was seeing it correctly.

Hello Vega,
I thought he had black nailpolish on, because of the white flower. Maybe he was having some fun? I don't know. Its more likely to be a bruse i guess but the flower is weird! Next time he makes a public picture we will know. if the nail is still black then its a bruise, if its gone, he played with some nail polish lol. :-)
But todays outfitwas nice. Orange/red suits him and i am growing found of the white pants.

Is the blond with him or his buddy. I know about the brunettes but dont know who the blonde is. It is ok to ask this right? It said this was a gosip nd news sight but i wondered after seeing thedrama here.

I've seen a few celeb men with a black nail. . . from Google search:
The movement is called Polished Man and it encourages men to paint one of their fingernails for a week to represent the 1 in 5 children who will be the victims of sexual violence in their lifetime. It all began when YGAP's Elliot Costello of Australia visited Cambodia for a project with Hagar International.

Thank you so much for this info Swanky. I had no idea about the movement. And I was trying so hard to make some sence of the flower on the black nail. Now it all makes sence. It is great to see him supporting such a good cause too.

Hi Melissa and welcome.
I guess you were right, it was nail polish, all for a good cause.

That orange red shirt might be from the set of TLDG. Not the saffran with the buttons but the other redder 70's one but its not a close up, hard to tell. But all these bright colors look great on him, so does black :smile:
I don't want to comment on the blonde lady. Or any others at the moment. You never know the reaction you will get here. I have had my share. But don't let me discourage you. It is supposed to be a gossip thread as well.
