Red Mosquito

Here is exact quote from the creator...

Early in the episode, we see Errol come into the big house, "North by Northwest" is playing and he starts doing a James Mason voice. Then he slips into a number of other accents. What was behind that?

Nic Pizzolatto: That was part of his creation as a character. There was this idea that when he talks in his real voice, it's very slurred because of the scarring. My background for him was that he learned how to enunciate properly through watching all these old VCR movies. And that brings us back to the idea of storytelling, right? At one minute he can affect this Andy Griffith good ol' boy voice, the next he can sound like James Mason, and when he wants to use his real voice, he sounds like something wounded and damaged. And then when Cohle is in Carcosa, he sounds like something entirely different.

I believe the creator mentioned in an interview somewhere that he mimicked others' voices to relearn how to speak after his accident that left all the scarring.

that was no accident

Ahhhh

"I contemplate the moment in the garden, the idea of allowing your own crucifixion."

Really dug his Jesus look in the hospital.

And the way he was lifted off the ground by Errol. And the way blood was gushing out of him at that moment as the sky was torn asunder (even though Christ's wound is usually in his side, not his belly). The great thing about this imagery is that it's there, but it's still really only suggestive.

If my wife ever tells me to "make flowers" on her, I think I'll puke. That may be the most bizarre love scene ever put on screen.

I turned to my wife during that scene and told her that cancelled all the hotness of Daddario, Monaghan and the other chick.
