The character of Villanelle is one of the most profound female TV roles. The role itself is actually quite simple, but the implications behind it are ineffable. The subtleness of human emotions, the representation (or the realization) of feminism, the capability of a female psychopath in an adorable way, and its pure female-gaze fascinate me. It's so sexy without being sexual. The tension between Oxana and all other characters is created by her alone, but somehow it works.
还记得片头的“This is not based on a true story”渐渐变成“This is a true story”吗直到画面切换到“现实中的某某某”面对镜头侃侃而谈时我都觉得导演是在开玩笑的片尾其他主角回想起沃伦的一面之词恰好照应了这种打破纪录片和剧情片界限的做法:既然一切故事都是编排那么请听我来说一个“true story”吧
