Il Sogno di Esref

For a first episode, it was really good.

It started off a bit slow, but that's expected for an opening - introducing the characters and setting up the story. Then, the pace picked up, and the plot became truly captivating.

The beginning sequences & the production quality as a whole is very similar to the high quality production in some of the best television series.

"Esref looked at a woman for the first time in many years, he felt a warmth in his stomach like he felt when he first saw his Ruya, he looked at the girl's neck, there was no sign, it wasn't her... so feeling this way created a deep regret in him"

"Even when he was taking his last breath, he was still very handsome."

In 2001, Esref sees his dream... I loved the choice of child actors. I continue to watch with curiosity and interest.

I liked the beginning of "Esref Ruya". There are quite a few storylines that could develop.

I really like the way the narrator works.

He is the one who knows everything about Eshref, his thoughts, motives, knows about events that he was not even a direct witness to. This gives a lot of freedom in the storytelling because it allows us to learn things that would otherwise remain hidden.

Excellent cinematography!

Characters like Esref have some inexplicable appeal-not just because they look strong, but because they exude control, mystery, and self-assurance.

And Cagatay Ulusoy is perfect for this role of a mysterious, domineering man who seems to hold the fate of others in his hands, but cannot control his own.

I hope it continues in the same style. Let's listen to the person telling the story because it adds an emotional layer to the story.

He can make observations and comments that make us look at things from a different perspective.

I haven't written a review in years! This has turned out to be one of the best series out right now. It started out slow but has built up to a superbly written and acted series!

Its a very unique plotline. There's no emasculated men bullied by bitter mother/grandmother, no weak female victims getting slapped around, there are multiple villains who are psycho, but the chess moves of the tribe/mafia families, psycho exes, the "good" bad guys, and the bad bad guys has me anticipating every Wednesday night! Great series!

Cagatay and Demet are masters of their craft!

I love the supporting cast as well. Superb writing! Love this series!

It is a pleasure to follow Demet Özdemir's projects. Each of her characters is different, never the same, this time in the role of a singer, a cheerful woman with a child's soul who tries to achieve her ideals. The character is perfect for Demet, they are similar, she is a person with a special soul beauty. Demet's acting is remarkable, she easily switches from comedy to drama, now we smile at her lines, then, in a few minutes we feel her feelings, fear, despair, pain.. Nisan wakes up between two evils, a policewoman obsessed with an unrequited love, who uses it to take revenge and the mafia world, where she meets Esref, who is looking for his lost love from childhood. We witness an impressive love story, reminiscent of the Hollywood atmosphere of the 60s, the cast, direction, script, music, decor, filming, are of quality. The series is worth watching, a thriller, about human relationships, love, loyalty, betrayal,

Amazing direction with beautiful exterior shots. The actors have entered their roles 100%. The series combines drama, humor, strong scenes and strong performances that were evident from the first episode. I can't wait for the next episodes.

Cagatay Ulusoy has managed from the first shot to give meaning and depth to the character he plays. His gaze is captivating. It seems that he has worked hard for the role.

Demet Özdemir already has very strong (interpretative) scenes and I admit that it captivated me. It convinced me from the first episode.

The screenwriter has done an excellent job as all the characters are very well written.
