The Crown (2016)
There came a moment around the time I turned 70, when it dawned on me that I was no longer a participant, rather a spectator. A significantly extended with some nice padding Audience. Really opulent (in terms of scenes, set design, costumes, music), which does not change the fact that the best and strongest moments are undoubtedly still those chamber "theatrical" moments of dialogs between two or three characters. After all, it is conceived in such a way that many episodes are separate one-act dramas, thanks to which it is more about individual scenes or episodes than the whole. In any case, the series is distinguished in the best sense of the word (not to be confused with the emotionally cold), despite the theme of never black and white (anti) monarchist, abounding in magnificent dialogs enhanced by the fact that Morgan is interested both in status and dynamics of royal family and PM, cabinet, officials and servants and, last but not least, the contemporary political and social situation of (un) noble people of all classes. Normal people. Those come first and all the time. The exception is the third season, where due to the haste coverage of too much time in a hurry, ordinary people, stories and politics are forgotten to the detriment of the anointed. Which is a shame, but the following season made it up more than enough. | S1: 4/5 | S2: 5/5 | S3: 3/5 | S4: 5/5 |
