O Processo

A change from the usual US courtroom dramas. Interesting to see the Italian justice system in play. Not a binge watch type but must admit that watched the last 3 episodes and did not feel the time as the ending is very good and the whole story is tied up quite neatly.

Good and very enjoyable watch.

The subtitles disappear from the screen far too quickly such that for the most part I had to watch with the remote and start and stop to get the dialogue. B U T the series would easily be nine stars in my estimation if not for the difficulty with the subtitles disappearing too fast .The acting, and production values are first rate. The story which makes the main character , Elena Guerra played by Vittoria Puccini, conflicted makes for an interesting and compelling plot. #1 I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this series AND Vittoria Puccini blew me away with her acting, I have never seen so much emotion projected without even so much as a muscle twitch on her face. One simply has to watch it to understand , what I am saying and how very powerfully she comes across on the screen. It just wouldn't matter what part she played. The ending feels like it was focus grouped but I nonetheless wish I could find other series one half as good as this one. All the characters have more than one dimension which is what is so often lacking in what is currently on offer. I wouldn't miss this one.

Yes, I loved it and I cannot wait for season 2! Lately, I have not watched many movies or TV series but this one captivated me from minute 1. It's so interesting to see how the characters evolve, how the story of the murder comes together and by chapter 8 I was blown away. I was freaking out over that ending and I sure hope there's a season 2 to answer all these questions I have (which will not be shown here since I want to keep this spoiler-less).

This reminded me of the killing the first season which I loved. A must watch

This Italian noir is crafted with the utmost finesse. Set against the palatial Renaissance backdrop of Mantova-a city still relatively untouched by tourists-Il Processo takes us on a ride through the Italian judiciary system without bogging us down in bureaucracy, detail and Amanda Knox.

A refreshing change from Neopolitan, mafia-led dramas, and all the cringe set in Venice and Rome, Il Processo breathes a breath of fresh air into Italy's TV exports. It steers clear of the path to pretentiousness (from which many of its contemporaries never return), instead prioritising character development and a slow-burning sense of unease over a quick, intense thrill, maintaining intrigue until the end.

Elena, the enigmatic main character-our new best friend and elusive partner in crime-solving-is expertly cast. True to her surname, the prosecutor wages a war against an increasingly desperate defendant and, in the process, lets us question her own motives. The director never leads us down the garden path, instead giving us objectivity with which we come to our own, likely erroneous, conclusions.

Saying bye to Vittoria Puccini's Elena in the sunset-based finale (a solitary dose of corniness to sign off an exceptional series) is genuinely quite sad.
