Love & Death

Very good but the trial drags on excessively and detracts some from the experience…

I just love hypocrites trying to justify their actions and getting away with no consequences, all done in great setting and believable dialogue!

Elizabeth Olsen is just absolutely brilliant here, and this show had me on the edge of my seat the entire time, since I was not familiar with the true history. Just an incredibly well made show.

Yet another show about Illuminati's favourite show-off: Trauma-based mind control - but with a very lovely mind-control slave as the protagonist!

Takes us through a true life housewife slaughter, catching the late 70s & early-80s aesthetics in a fine-tuned style. The actors bring enough personality to make it work, as it's more a systematic going-through-the-events type affair than one that milks the suspense. Elizabeth Olsen was good, but my favorite was Jesse Plemons. More than anything, they get the atmosphere.

The overacting especially by Olsen made me almost nauseated. The cutesy needledrop singalongs are something i will of course always hate in any show, but in this case they are feel bordering on unethical. I rarely feel bad about exploitation but someone was slain by 41 axeblows, it's not really all that funny and certainly not some Saturday Night Live skit. Plemons is the only one that gets it right. Candy, which is exactly the same subject and came out recently (weird!) did this a lot better.

Senenin kendini en izlettiren işlerinden biri Love&Death. Geçen sene Candy Montgomery'nin hikayesi Hulu ekranlarına Jessica Biel'in başrolde olduğu bir yapımla taşınmıştı ve fena da bir iş değildi. Aynı hikayenin Elizabeth Olsen'li versiyonu hem daha fazla seyir zevki sunuyor hem de dönemin atmosferini yansıtma yönünden daha başarılı. Elizabeth Olsen'in Emmy ve Golden Globe'da ödüller kazanmasına ise kesin gözüyle bakıyorum, Marvel'ın perdesinden kurtulunca muazzam oyunculuğunu kanıtlamış...
