Deutschland 86 (2018)
Martin, finder of lost children.
One of these " don't blink" series. Many plot twists that get swallowed whole by the scene immediately following. I hit the rewind a lot. It all made the ending what the writer wanted: tear jerker. The main players pool their chips at the end for a great, heroic moment.
True Detective (2014)
S1-best short TV drama series ever. S2- better with time
The roles were as big as the natural horror of the setting. The depth plumbed to be Rustin Cohle is a life time achievement. Harrelson wasn't the giant but he didn't need to be the lead. Their off screen connection makes this a once in a lifetime hit with superb performances.
That's season 1.Season 2 was not the lead's life's work. So in the wake of season 1, season 2 looked thin. But time has given season 2 virtue. It stands alone as a very clever mystery. Vince Vaughn was just good when he may have had a opportunity to ascend into the heights of Rustin Cohle. He missed that mark but hit his blocks. I kinda think the actors all took separate cabs each day to and from the shoot. They didn't bring off screen chemistry anyway.But hey, it's been 5 long years with nothing as good as season 2. The more time season 2 ages, it achieves independence from season 1 and gets its own renown.
Destroyer (2018)
Real. Grit. Black Rage spawn of lost love.
Kidman's best role. Heavy. Well acted. Well written. Hero of her own life after living the as the goat. Guts from anger over loss. "This is a gun fight"
