Loving Till It Hurts

I just watched the first episode of Season 1, For Better or Worst. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I loved the characters. I thought the actors did a very solid job! The lead actors in particular! Writer/Director Luner Eugene does a great job as Director. My interest was held throughout. I never once found myself drifting off. I'm looking forward to watching the other "5" episodes and hoping there's a Season 2. A thumbs up on this one for me!!

Wow. Was not sure what to expect on a six part series that included domestic violence. Thought I would just give the first episode a watch. Well, I ended up watching the whole series in one sitting. It was tough at times, particularly for those who have first hand experience with domestic abuse. Director Luner Eugene does a very nice job and balance. The acting is also well done. Hats off to a meaningful piece of filmaking.

Great art isn't always easy to consume. Verily, there's nothing popcorn or pop music about the exceptional "Loving Till It Hurts" six-episode series. This is an immersive, tension-driven presentation of the constantly escalating complexities and unpleasant truths hovering over and around the misappropriations of power that characterize abusive relationships.

In the most starkly fascinating of ways, writer/director Luner Eugene manages to approach this subject with a deftness and unvarnished delicacy so often absent from like-minded depictions. Eugene's knife-sharp dialogue and ability to drive at the essential essence is complemented by a terrific atmospheric barrenness; there's a visual projection of desolation here that's further set off by spot-on casting -- the acting of the leads in particular is both engrossing and truthful.

Most people like to think they really do appreciate entertainment content that deals in the real. "Loving Till It Hurts" may prove to be an ideal barometer for measuring exactly that, as there's nothing about this series that doesn't cut to the bone. Challenging, compelling stuff done at an exceedingly high level. - Was this review of use to you? If so, let me know by clicking "Helpful." Cheers!

It explores the dark aspects of marriage and relationships in a series that is well-acted and well-produced. It's an engaging story which unravels at a solid pace with interesting reveals that keep you hooked. It is dramatically heavly with few moments of levity, but the mystery, twists and romance provide plenty of entertainment.

I love a drama that has some thriller elements to it, and this one definitely does. It's an unflinching look at an abusive relationship, wonderfully acted and realistically written. If you have a spare minute, give this indie gem a watch!
