Heridas abiertas

I think people are a little confused on what this show is about. It is a murder mystery, but that takes the back seat a lot of the time, and focuses more on the psychology of our characters. This is a show about trauma and the way it affects people, especially Camille (Amy Adams). It can be gory, but doesn't really show much active violence. It's thrilling, but definitely isn't action packed.

This show isn't for everyone, but there's no denying that it's extremely well made. This was Jean Marc Vallee's final completed project before his passing in late 2021. The director and assistant editor, also known for Big Little Lies season one, really knows how to tell a compelling story.

The direction is amazing, and since he has a large role in editing both shows, it has a similar editing style to Big little lies that is very effective in the demonstration of trauma. We see flashbacks in short, few second bursts that give us insight into what a character is thinking about, which lends itself for an incredible viewing experience.

If you want a dark murder mystery that puts the psyche of its characters in the drivers seat, this is for you.

In an age of constant renewals and shows that refuse to bow out when they're on top, there's something to be said for the beauty of a self-contained story, well-told.

A hats off to Jean Marce Vallee. This is a masterpiece. I still didn't get over from the finale. Especially from the post credits scenes. This is far better than the brilliant Big Little Lies by the same director, which was really good too. We can't really decide who did their roles best. Amy Adams or Patricia Clarkson or Eliza Scanlen. They were absolutely stunning. A must watch for all.

I've never posted a review before but just HAD to for this. I've also never binged watched 7 hours of tv straight before. This was brilliant from the beginning to the very last credit.

Absolutely brilliant. If your looking for a happy story, look somewhere else. Very dark, very depressing, if you have it in you to watch, you get a masterfully spun story of true pain, true guilt and loss. Also a very good depiction of mental health. With a final act that is JAW dropping. I've never written a review on here, but this is a masterpiece.
