Maybe it's because I had too high expectations for this movie after reading the introduction... To be honest, the drama where everyone is a suspect is a bit vulgar. In particular, these suspects don't have any particularly impressive links. It feels like they are just trying to create a plot together. The suspect's transition from being suspected to clearing the suspicion is extremely fast, and he makes all the moves just by talking. Then the blunt dialogues of "I didn't say panic, I swear" and "I want to find a lawyer" came out. Especially the last turning point, I feel that there is no more bullshit, only more bullshit. If the finale is reversed, the heroine policeman is the murderer, and the audience may accept two sentences to make up for it.

and! The death of the handsome policeman was too sudden and meaningless! I feel that it is not as valuable as the sacrifice of the police in the vulgar domestic criminal investigation film. I remembered who was the murderer I just watched, aside from the production and political correctness that had to be maintained, at least the plot is higher than this one... This kind of film where a murderer solves a case and solves a drama, the plot can't be pushed up It's too uncomfortable... A lot of small nodes are perfunctory and sloppy

But the advantage is also that the characterization is still very full, especially the roles of several mothers in several families. Despite the identities of women and mothers, they are still very three-dimensional and have their own characteristics. Abandoned Soldiers). And the picture is still very textured, the soundtrack is top-notch, and HBO never fails.

Finally... Although I don't know if it's an exaggeration or a reality, it's true to use marijuana and abusing guns to mess with men and women... Freedom returns to freedom, no matter how you think about it, it's a bit anti-human, and I feel that it has nothing to do with being conservative or open-minded. Well, it's not necessary to emphasize freedom... Or is it just a reverse portrayal of excess freedom?

Samsung flower?

    4.5⭐, I don't think it's unfinished, the truth reversal and the final ending are not accidents, but coexistence of heartbreak and healing. Returning to the theme of family, I feel that the connotation of the whole drama has risen to a new level, trivial, chaotic, real, and more. Hit the heart to trigger thinking, not just finished. I like the description of the details of each character's life in the play, even if some sublines are not directly related to the case itself. There are various groups of people in the town. The surface is calm and monotonous, but the dark tide is turbulent. Everyone has their own difficulties and traumas in their lives. The end of each episode is suddenly full of suspense. Some people who were in trouble and finally got out of it. . The actors are impeccable. I didn't recognize Kuaiyin's black hair for a while, and the role of the heroine's mother is also very eye-catching. In addition, Kate Winslet is more tired than I said, and the Emmy Award will be taken away!

    I didn't guess the ending. It was deliberate but reasonable. This is a drama that is not afraid of spoilers. The story itself is not surprising. There have been countless themes of pain and healing in a large number of small town stories in American and British dramas. Because it is a society of acquaintances, the contradictions are more concentrated, the tension is stronger, and the drama is more dramatic. What's really amazing is the acting, Kate is too strong, one of the greatest actresses of the day, to be removed. All levels and emotions of a complex character are vividly interpreted. Just give her a role and it's all there, looks effortless but feels right. She was right, and so was everyone around her, which was amazing.
