The Best Of: How To Be Good
1. Young Natasha Romanoff flashbacks! Oh my god! This is the type of stuff we should have seen in Age of Ultron. If there ever is a Black Widow movie (looking at you, Marvel), this is the type of material they should include.
2. Young Natasha's admiration of the ballerina. And her having dreams of leaving the Red Room. This is a Natasha with her innocence still in tact for the most part.
3. Young Natasha and Marina's banter. I love these two as friends. I love that young Natasha had a friend in the Red Room, a friend that teases and lectures like any friend would.
4. The two girls finding the gun and Natasha deciding to hide it so only they know about it. You can see the seeds of the agent she will be here.
5. Young Natasha sneaking inside the studio to watch rehearsal. Young Natasha remembering her parents and then not being sure if those memories are true. "It's the warmest I've been in a long time. Up here, it's quite warm. Like the summertime. Like the summertime with my parents. Good times. That's how it could have been, anyway."
6. Natasha's anger and shock when she see's the ballerina's leg broken. Natasha wanting to leave Red Room. Natasha shooting the ballerina's husband (aka the first person she's probably killed.) The Red Room thinking she'll have great potential as an assassin. Anyone else feel their hearts breaking?
7. To be honest, I was more interested in the young Natasha stuff than anything having to with the Prophet so I haven't talked about it at all in this review. I promise stuff happens with that though. You learn why Natasha was taken and more about CHAOS and its intentions.
