In many episodes, Jonathon uses the same lens throughout the series, a medium telephoto lens

Plot

It follows Catherine Ravenscroft, a documentary television journalist whose work is based on exposing the wrongdoings of long-respected institutions. Gary Oldman was originally rumored to be in the cast, but he was replaced by Kevin Kline.

This show demands your undivided attention

Such a lens would not be able to focus on close subjects, such as a selfie with Sasha or in the bedroom with Catherine. I rarely leave reviews, but after seeing some of these surprisingly negative ones, I had to share my thoughts.

The direction is excellent, and Alfonso Cuarón’s signature style is evident throughout the show

If you’re looking for something to have on in the background while you scroll through your phone, this is not the show for you. His use of long, immersive takes, combined with the excellent performances from the cast, excellent sound design, and stunning cinematography, make for an incredible viewing experience.

If you are still confused, episode 2 will help clear things up

It seems that some viewers may not have the patience or focus to follow the plot. Episode 1 throws you right into the action without much exposition, but if you pay attention to the dialogue and just watch the show, things will start to fall into place.

This show has been fantastic so far

If it keeps up this level of quality until the end, it has the potential to become a cult classic in the years to come.
