Unbelievable (2019 Showrunner Susannah Grant)

Fired by Danielle Macdonald's performance in The Tourist. I'd remembered how good she was in this, but so is Kaitlyn Dever as an extremely mixed-up girl. It is screechingly clear about the difference in how the police process Kaitlyn's rape and how they deal with Danielle's. Merrit Weaver and Toni Collette also give wonderful, nuanced performances (it's amusing how pissed off Toni is). All acting great.

Eight part Netflix series. Lisa Cholodenko directed three, Grant two and Michael Dinner three.




What was it? "One day's burden is enough for one day." Or something. It's the Bible (Matthew).

Liked after they've apprehended the rapist, he will only talk to the male detective - "You won't believe this, but he's uncomfortable around women."

Great screenplay, really good series.
