I don't think it was an excuse to put in alot of sex scenes. it's out of topic but I have to disagree that it's a porn movie, it is sexually graphic yes, but those are used to show how they become lustfully needing each other and to INCREASE TENSION as we go to the part when the deception was caught in the act (we can see their progress of being indifferent to each other up to the point that they're comfortable to do all the positions they want). I guess people thought she was really making headway but I felt like it was bound to happen. It was like a bad fairy tale that had a happy ending tacked on to please the audience. It was a visually lovely show to watch. Although we get to see Lizzy murder Isaac and hence, have a better understanding of it, her murder of Emma is only glimpsed. The next day, upon Isaacs return, he mentions that he met the reverend on the way. I like that about this director/writer pair. As a young boy, he was fascinated by Giovanni Caproni planes, which were made by one of Italy's best-known aircraft engineers. It's what sets this drama apart from the movie version which was a neat package in itself but i felt the drama extended and explored and fleshed out the characters on a deeper level that made me - with the exception of Sec Wang (whatthehell show- she made her blind, i don't care how well she can cook)- connect with the narration as a whole.

I could feel the discomfort of the clothing, the confusion of being in a new place and time, and see the world as if I was reading in 3D. Now he knows, and knowing is half the battle.

Not Soo asks her if she cant see, and she responds by asking if hes ever met a blind person. In an unforgettable love story, a woman's impossible journey through the ages could change everything Anne Gallagher grew up enchanted by her grandfather's stories of Ireland. No surprise there especially after MC was redeemed, shown to be running interference all along and Wang was let off the hook which was crud. Like you say, she made Young blind! There was realism to that. And if not, why not? I was not disappointed in the least and I cannot say how grateful I am that I was able to escape my own reality for a few hours. Just like Young, this show grew and developed until about halfway, when it started losing its momentum, getting more secretive, and reverting to bad old habits. If we add the something else, then this was an insanely beautiful if not sometimes-frustrating exercise in understanding people who looked like people, but had some moments where they didnt really act like people.
