Omicidio a Easttown

I was never a Winslet fan. Could be my loathing of Titanic that turned me off.

Now it's an unconditional love affair.

Mare of Easttown is brilliant filmmaking on every level.

I'm hooked.

I literally watched all 7 episodes in 1 day. Then, after it had all ended, I didnt know what to do with my life.

This series is a masterpiece! The writing is brilliant, the story is so good and the acting is second to none. This is a slow burner that will keep you captivated till the very end. Absolutely amazing.

I definitely wasn't expecting to like Mare of Easttown as much as I did. The trailers for it just looked ok and Kate Winslet is always good in everything she does but I still put it off because it only looked ok. I was wrong. It was better than ok, it was flat out good. I was bored and looking for something new to watch and heard nothing but good things about this series and so I finally started watching it. Once I started I couldn't stop, I binged all seven episodes over the course of a weekend. I know it was only suppose to be a one season miniseries but I've read that because it did so well that they might do another season. I hope they do and this time I won't put it off for so long.

Mare of East Town is an excellent character study. Kate Winslet is superb. She is thoroughly committed to her role. Kate is walking a Tightrope of being a character that is a bit too brash to like on the surface. But this is where her brilliance as an actress shines through. She adds a depth , both standoffish and sympathetic. Whinslet adds just a touch of wry humor and in the end it wins you over and I identify with her troubled and bruised character. I honestly can say I've never seen here in a gritty role like this before. The writing is very well done that helps the entire ensemble in this limited series. I have a strong feeling this is going to be an engaging mystery , drama HBO has come up with . I would say it's definitely worth checking out.

I can't believe how much I enjoyed Mare of Easttown. It's about a small town Pennsylvania homicide detective who's life falls apart around her as she investigates a murders. She's also a home town basketball hero so the entire town knows her. Even though it's gotten great reviews and has been nominated for just about every award I was still hesitant about watching it. I was wrong. It was fantastic! The writing and acting (especially Kate Winslet) are some of the best of the year. The twists and turns will keep you at the edge of your seat and guessing what's going to happen next. All the hype surrounding this show is much deserved. If you haven't seen it yet give it a chance, you won't be disappointed!
