Returns to television darkness – The Observer

The signal HBO wants you to pay attention again. Heavy summer, in mid-January, I had completely during the eight weeks of the issuance of the first season of True Detective . Difficult for a series avid consumer of the police was able to escape it led by Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as a pair of police in charge of investigating the murder of a young woman in the southern state of Louisiana.

Now, HBO and the creator of True Detective , the writer Nic Pizzolatto, back for more. Today 22 when the second season of the series premieres and expectations could not be higher. The program not only was considered one of the best television productions of the year, but since the transmission of the last chapter the only thing that all his followers have wondered is how will their producers to raise.

True Detective was presented from the outset as an anthology series. Each season consists of a story and a cast, with a beginning and an end charge not to leave any loose ends. After almost a year and a half of rumors about the second season, speculation will end today when the first chapter confirm whether the exploration of a new premise, a new cast and a new location promises to fruition or not.



What is known

No, McConaughey and Harrelson will not return. From the first talks about the second season, Pizzolatto was very clear in stating that the history of Rust Cohle and Marty Hart ended in that scene that both agents outside the hospital talking about the eternal struggle between light and darkness, having caught the guilty 17 years after they first met.

Instead, the actors Vince Vaughn, Colin Farrell and Rachel McAdams Taylor Kitsch four new players who will lead the series. While Vaughn known for his film career as a comedian – will play a gangster trying to stop the illegality by a business, the rest embody a trio of officers from the LAPD whose paths will cross for a murder that hides a network of conspiracies.

But the expansion of the main cast and the removal of the mysterious and swampy Louisiana to a decrepit and corrupt Los Angeles is not the only narrative that the spectators change notice. Nor will there be an alternating narrative between past and present. Once the song Nevermind Leonard Cohen to start the opening credits (another notable element of the first season), the story proceeds only

.

The expectation

Like it or not the new Californian look for True Detective , we must recognize the guts to Pizzolatto. They leave the elements that put him on the map of the industry overnight, helped him turn his old books in bestseller and get treatment for future films, takes courage. And even if advised of their plans in advance, that does not mean that the public is akin to the new proposal.

To keep the bar high, it is likely that the public begins to look for ingredients that They made exceptional first season. The existentialist dialogue Pizzolatto awarded his scripts made monologues McConaughey an acting class. Although it is likely that the philosophical influences are replaced by more black as Elmore Leonard or James Ellroy feathers, the exchange between the four main actors can lead to scenes as captivating as dialogues route between Marty and Cohle

Visually, the director of the first season, Cary Fukunaga, deserves the same recognition as its creator. Photograph and planes were the ones who made this southern passage of a dream land, along with philosophical delusions of the series. That his place behind the scenes was maintained during the eight episodes only he helped improve the visual quality of the story more. Will Justin Lin, director of several supplies of Fast and furious s, the filmmaker responsible for setting the tone of the series in the first two chapters then other filmmakers take over the season.

What has been said

It is normal prior to the premiere of a series in the United States, various means have a look its first chapters. If there is anything that the reviews of the first three chapters of True Detective have agreed is that the public should control their enthusiasm.

The drama will be more present than ever in this new stage, in which the morale of the players, be they criminals or vigilantes, it is so diffuse as smoke that seems to load many scenes in an aesthetic tribute the smoker was the seventh art popularized by the black cinema.

Pizzolatto has imposed a new challenge as an artist and who are waiting for more of the same, will not. As fair will give the writer the benefit of the doubt on the possibility of love to his audience once more. “We have the world we deserve” the tagline forward promotional posters. It remains to be seen whether this axiom applies to this new offering from Sunday. In the worst cases, you just have to pay attention during eight weeks while the outside cold did not motivate much more.
