Landscapers HBO / Sky
« on: December 8, 2021, 12:38:41 pm »


Anyone else seen this yet? New drama on Sky from HBO with Olivia Coleman and David Thewlis. What an unbelievable combination that is!

I watched the first episode last night and was keen to know the thoughts of anyone else who's watched it.

Spoiler
I'll need to rewatch it as I found myself easily distracted from it -- even though the directing style and acting was absolutely incredible, it seemed to drag every so slightly for me.

I was following the BBC podcast of the story, and stopped before the last episode, as it might ruin it. Like the ending to Titanic. PM me if you find a stream of this anywhere.

Loved it. They say how it ends at the beginning. The brilliance is in the storytelling, the acting and the direction.

Spoiler
They break the fourth wall but still manage to draw you straight back into the story. Olivia Coleman is, as always, superb.
