Mr. John Locke, the most tragic character on Lost, played by the brilliant Terry O'Quinn.




Please come in and share your thoughts and feelings on Locke, and Flocke if you must.

(Spoilers for the finale, of course)


I thought Terry's performance in the final episode was so beautiful. We saw Locke at his most pure. In my opinion, Locke had an innocent soul, and so many obstacles holding him back from realising his potential. After "waking up" he was at peace, and Locke could finally be his most true self.

The tragedy is that he never found peace while he was alive.




What are your thoughts?

What do you think his Sideways says about him as a person? Why do you think his father was in his "life" yet completely incapacitated and dependent?

Share your feelings about this amazing, beautiful, tragic character.
