Based on Gillian Flynn’s (Gone Girl) novel by the same name, the eight-episode limited series stars Amy Adams as Camille Preaker, a journalist who returns to her hometown to cover the murders of two preteen girls only to find herself identifying with the young victims too closely.
Jean-Marc Vallée (Demolition,Dallas Buyers Club & Café de Flore ), who also directed HBO’s Big Little Lies, helms all eight episodes
I need to rewatch it when I feel more relaxed. Kept it on in the background while browsing internet and the entire episode passed by without me really realizing. Seems like a show that you would need to force yourself to pay attention, at least at the start.
It starts off with those murders, which was fairly interesting and then switches focus on her and her family for the last few episodes. Finding it a bit boring as well.
poison her after the dinner? I mean..she was so sure it was her who murdered and poisoned the girls.
Did she somehow want to get her mom's confession or something by playing her game?
It seemed strange.
Anyways, it was a pretty good TV series, but not without issues.
And she wasn't portrayed as the best decision maker anyway, in fact quite the opposite. So there probably were better options but in her broken mind this was a way to save her sister + maybe also fulfill her desire to hurt herself.
Anyway, a 7/10 show. Drags a bit in the middle and the end reveal + twist weren't that satisfying, but enjoyable and competent otherwise. Amy Adams holds it up really.
