The tumultuous crisis of faith and total devotion, the bewilderment of grief that haunts him and haunts him because of personal tragedy, the only people he loves who are far away from him. Lenny Belardo is such an authentic, tangible, complicated, contradictory, tormented, layered, and beautiful character. He felt never being loved, and in reality, it is true that people he loves and cares about leave him behind. But how glorious it is even though you wrestle and get overwhelmed by your own anguish, sorrow, and tragedy, you grow to be a human being that is able to love, comfort, reconcile with, and make an effort to connect with other fellow men and fellow women. Such an incredible arch of the personal journey. And every other character is natural and intriguing as well.
Graceful and elegant, natural, soul-stirring and heartbreaking. Countless beautiful pieces. Jude Law's performance is superb.
Even though the theology, dogma, and doctrine presented by this show are not biblical, these explorations and reflections are good as a story. God is love. And He, Almighty Lord, really exists and saves and conquers.
On the one hand, it's sad that the story ends like this; on the other hand, it totally feels like a good story shouldn't be exhausted. Story Stopping at this node is emotionally and tragically mysterious and magnificent.
I love Lenny so much I can't help myself.
