Re: Big Little Lies- opinions?

For me, one of the great scenes was Celeste and Perry dancing to Neil Young's "Harvest Moon."  I can't get that scene out of my mind, it was so perfect.  Beautiful, loving, foreshadowing, the dance to it was sublime.

 

Also loved Jane and Ziggy belting out "White Rabbit" in the car, it was such an honest, believable glimpse of this very close mother and son. 

 

These for me were the finest example of using music to create unforgettable scenes.  Every single song worked.  I'm wondering if David Kelley wrote them into the script; because the soundtrack accomplishes so much (besides being great songs), it's like another character in the series.

Re: Big Little Lies- opinions?

Oh my gosh!!!  Yes, I know it's the end of June, but I finally watched the entire series over the weekend.  I had recorded all of them.

 

Last night, at 9:30, as I finished up the last show, I literally let out with a shout when The big event  happened.  I was watching in the bedroom and my husband walked in as I jumped up and said "oh my gosh!!" and I startled him, LOL.

 

Even though I had started watching the first episode the night it first came on, I didn't finish, but recorded all of them.  I ALMOST didn't bother to watch, but started the first episode again Friday night and plowed my way through all of them.  I'm so glad I did.  What a terrific series.

 

And I agree with everyone- Emmy to Nicole Kidman.


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?
