I might re-watch TRUE DETECTIVE.
Every scene crackles with dramatic tension, great acting, dialogue, etc. Can't say enough good things about it.
Except:
**spoilers**
By episode 4 I was getting a little lost. By the end, I had no idea what was going on, and I'm still not sure how they found the bad guy. I watched that scene two or three times and I still scratched my head. Someone (who?) got their house painted. Huh?
I think the series should've been shorter. Four episodes maybe. There are so many tangents and subplots and red herrings, and so many characters we're supposed to remember. Should've boiled it down to something more manageable.
The chopped-up timeline doesn't help.
Even the title is confusing. Who is the "true" detective? Is the other one "false"? I don't get it.
If I do re-watch it, I might have to take notes. I know film is supposed to be the new literature, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that.
