A computer error was being blamed for a split-second flash of an African woman holding a basketball that appeared in at least two instances during the season finale of HBO’s Six Feet Under last week, the New York Times reported today (Monday). The shot touched off speculation on the Six Feet Under website about what the subliminal images meant, with many commenting that they were intended to be symbolic. “What a brilliant directing/producing technique!” one fan wrote. HBO, however, told the Times that the images were not inserted intentionally into the movie by the producers of Six Feet Under, and that they apparently came from the movie The Air Up Therethat had aired on HBO the same day.
