Dunkle Leidenschaft

I expected some silly soap opera. It turned out to be much better than expected. Sex scenes are not overwhelming and quite beautiful, but it is not about sex. It is an attempt to look into the driver of our desires that we can't resist. Someone said it is predictable, I disagree. Only closer to the end I started to see who is the perpetrator. Scenes repeat is a bit annoying and imaginary scenes are also confusing. But overall it is watchable. Very good messages : "There are 2 types of relationships in life: those that inspire us to give our best and those that destroy us. Those that give us peace and those that take it away. Why the hell we choose wrong most of the time. Why do we choose type of love that tears us apart. Society and stereotypes push us toward that chaos. It teaches us that pain is fun. And it isn't. That is not true. Pain is perverse. It is exciting. But it hurts. We have to earn again to love. It is our duty."

If you can figure this one out, you're a genius. Even with triple replays of scenes, we still don't know who did what to whom. An episode shows us how someone died, another shows a completely different version. The moral behind the film, I guess, is that reality is ever what it appears to be. Which doesn't much help us the unsuspecting viewers. The ending suggests a second season may be down the road, but, Dios! I hope not.

The acting is descent. I just don't think Maine P. Is old enough to be the mom... or the daughter May have been cast too old...

You can show what happened differently in dream and hallucination scenes , but if you do this in flash-back scenes, you will be lying. The script writer and the director has to be honest with the audience. Making mind games, trukes that will make the audience curious is welcome but you are hated when you treat the viewer as an idiot. Respect please.

I condemn Netflix for purchasing such an unethical strategy.

Main characters acting it is very amateur, story line needed more work, not very deep. Seems very stupid to me after chapter 10 or so...
