[OreadNYC]

Is anyone else reminded of Jonathan Pryce as Mr. Dark from "Something Wicked This Way Comes" (1983) when they watch this scene...? One wonders if Ray Bradbury might have been inspired, even if only unconsciously, by the Knight Of Mirrors when he envisioned the Mirrors of the Pandemonium Carnival which Mr. Dark uses to ensnare the souls of his prey/victims.

"And now this -- this is your glass of darkness, Mr. Halloway. Its name? Regret. Its son? Despair. Drink deep its funeral sights and sounds! Your failure as a father and as a man. Your son hates you. You've lost him. He's mine, and young Jim Nightshade too! Drown, Halloway! Drown in your regrets!"
