I never realized before that Steve also falls. When he reaches out to Bucky he’s almost taken down with him. For some reason, no matter how many times I have seen it, I always thought of Steve as a rock, an anchor in the scene. Because that’s who Steve Rogers is as a character, and who he is up until this moment as Captain America. But in reaching out to Bucky he loses his footing and needs to grab on to save himself. And his resentment is immediate.  Between the rush of almost being pulled down and the realization Bucky is gone, it’s the moment Captain America stops being Steve Rogers.
