Sharp Objects
May. 7th, 2019 11:33 pmI've finished binging the first season of Sharp Objects on HBO, which I finally got into since I got my HBO subscription back for watching GoT. I don't have a way to describe exactly what I feel about that show other than to say it is extremely my shit.
I will say, I had the twist pegged in the first episode almost as soon as that character was on screen. I didn't know anything about the show going in other than people talked a lot about it when it first aired. Even having caught on fast, I was sold on the story and interested in the slow play towards that reveal.
The kind of women portrayed in this show and other shows like this are just so much my jam for reasons I can't quite explain. I've also really been thinking about the types of women I want to write, and how to write them, how to make them interesting and engaging and still write them true to character. This show is like a master class in characters I want to write.
Has anyone else watched Sharp Objects?
