Gary Oldman was originally rumored to be cast, but he was replaced by Kevin Kline
Tale
It follows Catherine Ravenscroft, a television journalist whose job involves exposing the wrongdoings of long-respected institutions.
In many episodes, Jonathon uses the same lens throughout the series, a medium telephoto lens
Such a lens would not be able to focus on close subjects, such as the selfie with Sasha or in the bedroom with Catherine.
The series is way too long, way too drawn out
I never read the book, so I am reviewing the series as a standalone.
She is clearly setting up for a “plot twist” The constant, detailed sex scenes are just disgusting
It was intriguing and mysterious for the first few episodes, but by episode 5 I was like, “Oh my God, just end this already.” Catherine’s silence/constant interruptions as she tries to tell her side of the story seem to be a plot device to keep the story moving.
I don’t mind sex scenes, but if I want to watch “detailed” scenes that last ten minutes, I definitely won’t be reaching for Apple TV+
Literally porn.
