The 10 Best Acted Scenes Of Game Of Thrones Season 8
7. Daenerys Mourns For Jorah
Emilia Clarke is by far and away the star of season 8, and her breakdown over Jorah Mormont’s body as he lays dead in the snow for her protection reminds the audience of the emotion behind the stoic woman they have watched grow over the years.
Perhaps the catalyst for her eventual descent into madness, Clarke’s famous eyebrow acting is at its best here, contorting into perfect anguish as she weeps unfiltered emotion for her lost friend.
It’s the last true moment of unbridled sadness we see from Daenerys, as beyond this moment her exterior turns cold and vengeful, even when faced with the death of more friends.
