When watching the drama, I suddenly feel very angry at the words and deeds of the reporters, and feel that they are too cold-blooded. In front of the murder case, they are like a group of vultures smelling the stench, circling, waiting for a feast. But calm down and think, this is their job: what people need to know.
But the question is, can they resist making the story too dramatic?
And, does the public really need to know all the truth?
The general public who are far away from the incident, the people who are far away from the real harm, what exactly do they need to know? And what do they (we) consume? The suffering of those at the center of the vortex of events is unfamiliar to those in the safe zone.
Another impressive part of watching the whole play: the detective said that he came to atone for his sins.
The question is, what is Hardy guilty of?
In fact, when I watch this drama, I occasionally think of "True Detective" inadvertently (my ability to associate is relatively strong), although the two dramas have very different temperaments. One thing that immediately reminded me of the two dramas is the dinner scene. The one who seems to be marginal in the two protagonists is invited to the house for dinner "out of courtesy" by the one who seems to be the winner of life, and during the dinner, everyone knows Rust and Hardy's family situation.
The other is the sense of responsibility that tortures the protagonist all the time to pursue the murderer. Rust suffers from missing the real killer. And Hardy has suffered a lot of self-blame for failing the victim's family (although he is not directly responsible, but as a boss, he feels that he can't find an excuse to excuse himself).
In the end, you can't get past your own conscience.
Although to outsiders they have a thousand reasons to let go.
Finally, in order to buy time to solve the case, Hardy compromised with the reporter and told the truth that he refused to tell before. It can be said that this case means more to him at this moment than anything else.
He needs to catch the murderer to redeem himself.
Even if you die in office, you can't do it.
What really fell in love with the male protagonist was the moment after Jack committed suicide, when faced with the media shirk responsibility and blamed the police for the fault, Hardy mocked himself for being the worst police officer in the UK.
I think the structure of the first season is quite complete.
Looking forward to how the second season plays out.
The PS psychic said that Hardy had been to this town before, and it was really good to be a head.
