As fun as Wednesday’s show was, these two were just the quintessence of the roles
Their competition wasn’t that fierce, Luis Guzman is a great actor, especially when being comical, but he very much is NOT Gomez Addams. But no matter who it was, I doubt they’d be able to beat Raul Julia or Anjelica Huston.
It also doesn’t hurt that Anjelica is always illuminated like she’s from another movie altogether (credit to CinemaTherapy). The director turned the glamor factor up to 11 in every scene without breaking anything. It’s impossible to follow that.
Raul, somehow, manages to be a complete ham yet relatable, lovable, and most importantly, believable.
The scene in the addams family where the light that falls across her eyes is already on her mark so when she steps into place the light just falls into place kills me every time
