Gary Oldman was originally rumored to be cast but was replaced by Kevin Kline
Synopsis
Follows Catherine Ravenscroft, a television documentary journalist whose work has been built on revealing the transgressions of long-respected institutions..
In multiple episodes, Jonathon uses the same lens throughout the series, a medium length telephoto
Such a lens would be incapable of focusing on close-in subjects such as selfies with Sasha or in the bedroom with Catherine..
And to top it all off is Kevin Kline as the conniving former private school teacher who finds a second lease in life with his torturous game of vengeance
A visual interpretation of Renee Knight's novel by the simple genius of Alfonso Cuarón, approaching the material with a pure cinematic sensibility, where after only 2 episodes the viewer is addicted to the mystery within the story structure, revealing thin layers at a time on the darkness of human behaviour with an added tinge of masochistic humor.The brilliance of the series is in the unusual casting of going against type, starting with Sacha Baron Cohen in a dramatic role as the pompous husband.
