#MEMORIES OF A MURDERER LIFETIME CAST SERIES#
Based on the bestselling books by Phillip Pullman the series follows 13-year old Lyra Belacqua (Dafne Keen) who embarks on a dangerous journey through a parallel world to uncover the mystery surrounding Dust and how it affects different dimensions in the universe. Oh His Dark Materials, you brilliant piece of fantasy you. And although it’s only four-episodes long, you’ll be surprised how quickly David Nicholls’ writing makes you care about them all, no matter how grumpy Douglas is. Us also charms the audience by showing us who Douglas and Connie were before they became parents and what brought them together in the first place. There’s also something bizarrely refreshing (if a little teasing) about watching the Petersens travel throughout Europe without the need for masks, an overuse of hand sanitizer or even facing long queues because of Brexit. It’s the small moments between Hollander and Taylor which put that across perfectly, as the middle-aged Dad frequently embarrasses his son to no end. The dynamic between the trio makes it all the more difficult for Douglas, because while Albie is so close with his mother, his father just can’t get through to him at all. The time abroad is tense, but it feels so relatably British. Unfortunately for Douglas, Saskia wants a divorce. It stars Tom Hollander and Saskia Reeves as Douglas and Connie Petersen who take their son Albie, played by Tom Taylor, on a trip around Europe before he leaves for university. It’s an infectiously heartwarming love letter about family, love and loss.
His Dark Material’s Ruth Wilson makes a particularly memorable turn as psychopathic nemesis and companion Alice Morgan, with The Death of Stalin’s Dermot Crawley as the razor-sharp DCI Martin Schenk and comedian Michael Smiley as “Deadhead” Benny Silver.
Critical praise has been unanimous – indeed the biggest criticism has been the length of the show, with only twenty-one episodes produced over five seasons.Įlba is the powerhouse of this series, but he’s joined by some fine company. Luther has been a smash hit for the BBC over the last decade, with Elba repeatedly garnering rave reviews every time a new season premiered, and the dark tone credited with giving the show more weight and gravitas than most police procedurals. The series starts with him unable to imprison psychopath and murderer Alice Morgan, leading the two to solve crimes together while he fights his own terrible demons. Luther sees Elba as the dedicated, obsessive and occasionally violent DCI John Luther, a genius murder detective whose brilliant mind is not immune to the darkness of his job.
#MEMORIES OF A MURDERER LIFETIME CAST MOVIE#
In a 2003 commentary included on our Memories edition, Kim exclaims, “I was beat up by the Foul King!” referencing Song’s star-making role in the 2000 film of the same name.Idris Elba may be a global movie star these days, but he still found time to film five series of this smash-hit BBC One show. Much to Kim’s surprise, the professional-wrestling-style dropkick by Song that sends the former rolling down a hill was unplanned and full-contact. Bong avoided rehearsals to preserve the awkwardness between some characters, and that initial encounter, a fight, was the very first time the performers worked together.
Verisimilitude extended to some performance details, such as the first meeting between Inspector Park Doo-man (Song Kang Ho) and Inspector Seo Tae-yoon (Kim Sang Kyung). Because the fonts and paper employed in 1986 were no longer in use by the time the movie was filmed in 20, the art department had to source the correct paper stock and design each font by hand, character by character. His art department, led by production designer Ryu Sung Hee, was particularly challenged by his request for newspapers, which are occasionally used in the film to convey information to the viewer. Bong, who has been nicknamed Bongtail by his crew because of his microscopic attention to detail, wanted Memories of Murder to be filled with period-accurate props, costumes, and set dressing.
