Scene of the Week: The Ides of March

directed by George Clooney
The Betrayal

The scene: After being fired Stephen Meyers decides to switch sides - furious, he is walking in the opposing candidate office, prepared to sell everyone he knows to get ahead. He is looking for Duffy - opposing party advisor who once asked him to join them, who then sees him and freezes, taken by surprise. Beautifully timed by Clooney and scored by Alexandre Desplat the scene is a testimony to Gosling's talent who can show so many strong emotions in even a very short sequence.
