Perdiendo a Alice

Another flawless Israeli production.

A peculiar story because it approaches the world of audiovisual direction from the inside with ease and a certain suspense. A very well run psychological drama, without fanfare, very sincere.

But the most important thing about this series is the great work of Ayelet Zurer. Kornowski's, too. But the first one "eats" the screen. His character is fascinating because it is real, human, credible.

Well done by Sigal Avin. A very nice and velvety color palette in the image.

The series has a certain "air" with Lynchian environments.

I just watched the first three episodes and I can't wait for more. The acting is superb. The storyline is provocative and engaging. I'm so glad AppleTV is streaming this show. It's beautifully done and I really hope it gets the recognition it deserves. I've always loved Ayelet Zurer. She's an actress of immeasurable talent and a captivating beauty. I recently watched her play Milada Horáková in the film Milada. Her performance in this movie blew me away.

The bad reviews are bewildering to me. It's like there's an agenda to bring down this series. Watched Defending Jacob before this, which got high 7s, and I literally fast forwarded through half of it. Presumed Innocent, another Apple TV series with high 7s, miserably slow and boring. Those shows pale in comparison to Losing Alice, which does everything right that they do wrong.

It's subtle, well paced, cerebral, atmospheric, multidimensional, absorbing and thought provoking. It has an interesting premise. It views like a really well made film. It kept my interest and made me think and feel. The other shows must be for the masses (enough with the hackneyed dark lighting!) This is for those who truly appreciate complexity in filmmaking.

This pulled me in, then ended up as a train wreck. I actually stopped watching the last episode. I am walking away from this, without understanding the conclusion, BECAUSE I DON'T CARE. Seriously, the last two episodes became idiotic.

"Sophie" is NEVER particularly "interesting." She is supposed to be some "Lolita." She's basically an annoying "millennial."

It really angers me, when I waste my time watching a series like this. It started out fantastic, then just butchered it all.

Again, A TOTAL waste of time, Apple+.

This series was compelling, even though it confused and disturbed me at times. One troubling feature was the relationship between David and his mother. What the hell was that all about? Every adult in this film is messed up. But it was still intriguing enough, that I binged all of it in a day and a half.
