This series starts as a questionable character (Andrew Scott) is hired by a rich man to bring his wandering son home from Italy. Once there, he gets a taste of the luxe casual lifestyle and decides to dig in. This show’s first impression is the lovely locations that are shot in gorgeous black and white. The visuals are continually stunning. Meanwhile, Scott creates a character that’s quietly sullen and subtly evil. The direction and editing are at a deliberate pace that details every action with plenty of observational time. Some may find this methodical approach too slow, but the show’s dark style is what makes it most appealing.
