Elisabeth Moss, Peter Mullen w/d Jane Campion
Seven part series which focused on the disappearance of a 12 yo pregnant girl and in telling the story the ugly side of a remote, scenic community is revealed.
Fine acting by all hands. Convoluted story which took some time to develop but ended up satisfying...with some caveats. Holly Hunter's role as a new age seer was pretty bad...underwritten, which may have been a plus since when she did talk what she said was idiotic pablum.
EM played a physically and emotionally vulnerable police detective. She easily carried the lead. Peter Mullen was his usual dominating presence as possible bad guy/monster...but you couldn't be sure...
Film held me in thrall to the very end, in spite of its faults.
