Let me tell you something, Chris…

Y’know what amuses me about all of these kinds of scenes? When Steve is wearing that uniform in the film, he’s playing Captain Showreel. He’s playing the legend these kids grew up with. He’s seen what it does to Coulson. He knows lower-down operatives would probably be of a similar mindset. So he treats them like the kids who used to chase him for autographs.
They see the suit. They don’t see the irate, PTSD-suffering 25 year old behind it.
steve + grief
Powerful. Heartbreaking. The sniffle that launched a hundred thousand fan stories …
Can we talk about how important it is that Steve Rogers, who embodies the idealistic masculine image, is open about his grief though?
Can I just talk about that last gif? In the commentary track, Joe Johnson said that they filmed this take first, then called Chris back for a reshoot where he was more stoic. They ended up going back to this version because of the strength of Chris’s performance and the emotion was a much better fit. As a result we have an amazingly beautiful emotional beat between Peggy and Steve, but we also actually get to feel Steve’s grief for his friend rather than it just being automatically transformed into righteous asskicking and gunfire.

#can someone put this gif side by side with the gif of bucky post-‘let’s hear it for captain america’ #because it’s the same face #in two different instances #the same expression on two faces for the same reason #this is the face that says something irretrievable has been lost or taken #for steve it was bucky; plain and simple and easy as breathing #for bucky it was more than that; he’s realizing he’d lost the thing that had defined him #the thing that made him who he was #made him the kind of man he could stand #bucky looks at steve – six foot tall and goddamn close to bulletproof #and knows he doesn’t need bucky to protect him anymore #that’s what bucky loses #steve has a brand-new shield #so bucky has no choice but to become the sword instead #steve doesn’t need him to stand in front anymore; he needs bucky to stand at his side #it just takes bucky longer to sort that out #sighs (via weinersoldier)
