Cinematographer Lyle Vincent did want to shoot on 35mm celluloid, after the style of Gordon Willis, though ultimately he used an Arri Alexa 35, but he does manage to emulate that look.
Feels like it's from a novel, but isn't. Suspected murderer Matthew Rhys moves in next to reclusive writer Claire Danes, semi-deranged FBI agent David Lyons drops in in the middle of the night to warn her.. Set various plots in motion and see what happens. I have to say that I love the way it begins in a place in time and then moves forwards - none of this 'three months earlier' bollocks. (Though episode seven - of eight - is completely a flashback, it's OK by then.) Luckily it's an ending you feel happy to have reached.
Engrossing without being necessarily very believable. That bit where he's copying the files off the laptop as they return home is soooooooo clichéd (as is doping the dogs).
Why is she living in such a fucking big house? Sell up, already!
Not a great title. Danes - Rhys interaction is good, though we wonder whether Danes is getting a bit samey.
Good editing as well in ep.1 Philip Neel. then the next two have different editors. Fuck me.
Directed by Antonio Campos and Tyne Rafaeli. And with various writers, makes the DP the main consistent creative force at work here across all eight episodes.. There are ten executive producers, a co-executive producer, a supervising producer, two producers, and two co-producers. And an associate producer.
