After chasing David Fincher's new work, the usual gloomy tone. Based on the book MindHunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit by former FBI agents John Douglas and Mark Olshaker. Compared with similar dramas, this drama does not focus on the thrilling and exciting murder and pursuit process, but more on analyzing the motives of the crime through calm conversation scenes with the killer. The schoolgirl killer Ed.Kemper is a character that is emphasized in the play. He is 2.08 meters, 300 pounds, and has an IQ of 145. His parents divorced when he was young, and he was discriminated against because of his body shape. Often humiliated by her mother, confinement. At the age of 15, he murdered his grandparents, was diagnosed with "delusional schizophrenia" and was sent to a psychiatric hospital for treatment. After performing well, he was released on parole in 1969. From 1972 to 1973, he successively killed and dismembered five female college students and one female high school student, and finally surrendered after killing his mother and her mother's friend. Kemper himself is a police fan and wanted to join the police force, but was rejected because of his size. Kemper is friendly, calm, and logical when communicating with FBI agents. The actors in the play use rich micro-expressions and first-class line skills to perform this role full of confrontation in detail. In the last episode Holden collapsed instantly with a hug from Kemper, and at the same time suffocated me as an audience. Just when you thought you could see and control the darkness, and you were full of confidence, the murderer on the hospital bed turned around and left you with nowhere to hide, kneeling with soft legs. The actor's acting skills are a bit of a failure.
