- QuizThe musical composition of the series theme and season one was by Jóhann Jóhannsson in collaboration with composer and cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir. After the death of Jóhannson in 2018 Hildur Guðnadóttir has been lead composer for season 2. At the end of season 2 there is a dedication to Johann Johannson (1969-2018).
- BlooperThe snow has inconsistent texture and depth throughout the entire show. This is of course because the filming has taken place over a considerable time. Whereas the story supposedly takes place over about ten days. Some of the snow is obviously spring snow, and wet and heavy, whereas other snow is fresh and very cold.
Recensione in evidenza
I'm already addicted to this thriller after watching two episodes only. Even though there is nothing particularly original about the plot and the back story (don't get me wrong, it's edgy in a Crimson Rivers sort of way, and is very very interesting on all levels but everything's been done before), it's extremely well directed and all the characters are very strong and uncannily lifelike. Part of the appeal resides in the "novelty" of the Icelandic location of course - I read some Icelandic crime fiction before and I found it in exactly the same appealing but rather grim vein in fact - but what really, really makes this, is the incredibly charismatic lead actor playing Andri, the unusual chief of the local police. What an actor. Negatives would be some overuse of atmospheric music but that's about it (eta: only the first 2 episodes really. It's being much better used afterwards. And it's great music) .
Am excellent watch although definitely not recommended for children, whether they can read subtitles or not. It has dead body parts and things.
After episode 3 I'm pushing this to a 9. Wild horses wouldn't drag me out before episode 4 on this Saturday night! This is top class TV by any standards.
Episode 5....still top class stuff .
The series has ended in both a pleasingly conventional and unconventional manner and I feel bereft and orphaned, such as I normally only feel after reading a particularly enthralling book. Well done, I shall miss you all like (dysfunctional altogether) family.
I would also like to add that user ratings are virtually the same across the board, from under 18 (who love it best) to over 45, males and females, US and non US users. It's quite astonishing and not at all usual.
