TRUE DETECTIVE - Matthew McConaughey, Woody
Harrelson Talking about a good series that light up an individual consciousness is a quiet copious cause that's what viewers are struggling for; An escape from reality. Watchers get to live a life they want to through the characters of that medium of entertainment.
But despite that when there is something that gradually shows the devaluation of a character by slowly corrupting away the residual humanity in them then it truly deserves a lot of recognition. That's what true detective was all about. It's not about a fashionable pair of coppers/detectives solving crimes through the streets of London but rather a pair of a broken degenerating human and a confused adulterate family man.
PROS:-
Direction: - Joji Fukunaga did a brilliant job in capturing the raw emotion of a goner and devastated man who questions the source of downfall of most modern relationships – “Can a man fall in love with two women?”. Most importantly the fact that separates this series from the rest is how he instead of complementing or judging what a good or bad character is, rather just let us feel them from their point of view.
Scripting: - Nic Pizzolatto, Scott Lasser, David Milch, Graham Gordy. The clever and witty use of the vocabulary to describe an aspect a character is feeling was profoundly incredible.
Cinematography: - Adam Arkapaw. In some way, for the first time, I was mesmerized by the sheer use of the camera to express the extent and intensity of a situation. It was unimaginable. This alone was enough of a reason which encouraged me to proceed for the next episode. It sure was some David Fincher vibe.
Rust Cohle:- What can I say! Matthew McConaughey’s performance as Rust Cohle hands down was one of the most magnificent characters I have ever experienced on TV. A calm, collective, insomniac and patient character who doesn’t proceed to take action based on the heat of the circumstance with gradual degradation of his oneself. This is something probably we all need to learn in our life. Matthew McConaughey perfectly portrayed the emotional disruptions that the character was pushed through by the loss of his daughter and divorce but most importantly his sanity.
Cons:-
Season 2. Period
