I've watched Sunshine again after a couple of months away, and I fell in love with the characters all over again. I love how they're so well thought out, so well-acted. I never get the sense that they're actors playing characters, I only see Cassie and Mace and Searle y'know?
Just one example.
I love how Mace is the first one to respond to Cory when she says that there's not enough oxygen for all of them. 'Are you suggesting we let Trey kill himself?'. And he says it straight out, he doesn't let her words settle in the air. Mace gets straight to the point, he's not one for (pardon the language) bullshit. Who would say that sort of thing out loud, let alone think it? Only Mace. I love it that when Mace promises to Kaneda that he'll focus on the mission from then on, he *means* it. I love it how Mace goes back into the last coolant container even though he says to Capa that he doesn't think he can do it. The thought of not trying doesn't even seem to enter into his mind. I love how all his actions and all his words aren't merely 'consistent' with his character, but are part of him...I'm not explaining this very well.
It seems so cliched, but as far as I'm concerned, the characters are 'real' to me. And that's the highest complement I can give the actors.
