    O/T Adolescence

    I have watched all 4 of these on Netflix.

    Co written and starring Steven Graham and each 1 hour episode is one continuous shot.

    It?s a remarkable piece of television and the performances are outstanding. That lad that plays Jamie has never acted before.

    He was s destined for big things. He?s very talented.

    Binge watched it last night. I agree it?s excellent. Well worth the watch. The young lad and Stephen Graham are very good in it.

    Very impressive to tell the story using the continuous shot (I think Stephen has been in another doing the same) but I think it hindered the options slightly... and provided a comically slow chase in the second episode, which was obviously to accommodate the camera. I think another couple of episodes were needed to dig deeper into incel culture and to expand on the crime, but a very good watch nonetheless.

    Read that each episode was recorded at least 10 times and the lad and older woman in the 3rd episode improvised a lot of it.

    Just watched first 2 - very powerful and harrowing - the school scenes present a world away from not that many years ago - sad and shocking in that kids, and that?s what they are live in a world devoid little respect yet demand it themselves

    Brilliant acting and shooting of real life tragedy

    Stephen G plays the dad with real emotion
