Adolescence ★★★★★

Brutal. The first and third episode especially are incredible. I always adore the single-cut style and this is four episodes of it executed to perfection. The way it grounds you and and focuses you on the characters, on their reactions and emotions at all times. The choice to not always show you what people are seeing but on how it affecting and the phenomenal acting to sell that so perfectly. The use of the sounds of the rain in place of a soundtrack in the third episode was really great too. Absolutely enthralling.
