Zeit der Geheimnisse

Nice photography and color pallete nice direction very cold and tragic humor.

No good ideas, normal to good performances.

Bit boring too. I cant see 2nd episode.

I would say Holiday Secrets is a typical Netflix family drama based on flashbacks which bring you back in time and help to look into cupboard in search for family skeletons. I would say too many flashbacks as they made it too difficult to follow the story and distinguish family women from each other, at least until the middle of the episode 2. Which was half of the series in total.

Anyway, the mini series was rather intriguing, well written and well directed. Nice to see the windy Baltic Sea landscape and dune views which made some fresh difference from usual Mediterranean coastline in Netflix shows.

It's slow and beautiful. Sometimes a bit confusing. But the writing, the emotions and twists are perfectly placed. The ratings are getting really harsh lately. It's like there is no way to make people happy anymore.

The writers did a terrible job on this one. About 10 different stories going12 different directions and totally unbelievable. The only redeeming quality was the seaside and ocean. Otherwise it wasn't worth writing home about.

And I like dark and slow. Very good actors. Lots of yanking back and forth in timeline, which mostly made sense but you can forget who is who. Alma's was a story I wish we'd heard more about. I'd give it 7.5, and hope others will try it. A 'Netflix original' so watch it there.
