The Truth Will Out
A damn fine slab of Swedish Scandi-noir (so lots of driving over bridges and walking around in snowy forests!).
I nearly lost out as after the 1st episode I had thought of giving up with it, the plot and character development being just soooo dammmnnn SLOOOOWW - but I decided I would watch episode 2 and see how I got on - things improved, so much so that the following night I watched episodes 3; 4 and 5.....
I just have the final episode to watch tonight where (hopefully) all will be revealed regarding the real serial killer; what the police "involvement" was during the original investigations, corruption in high places ? or sheer incompetence?
I have read that the story is inspired by extraordinary true events in Sweden regarding the hunt for a serial killer some years ago.
So I was wrong - there are 8 episodes so I had 3 to watch last night... totally gripping, edge of the seat stuff in places! What I also liked was that whereas some movies/tv series end on the "high-note" this one let you see how things settled back down afterwards. Recommended!!!:thumbs up::thumbs up::thumbs up::thumbs up:
