Candy - Friday the 13th (S01E01)
I love the color palette of the show: vintage vomit yellow that overwhelms and makes you feel trapped in a miserable life; as well as bright red that shows the passion, danger and violence hidden under the surface.
First shot: This show is about a true crime case, but it's also about loneliness and the effects it has on people. Said theme is constantly shown by frames like this one, with tons of open space and a character that looks small in comparison. In this particula frame, they even added horizontal and vertical lines that create boxes, showing how distanced he was from her wife and how clueless he was about what was going to happen. However, he's not trapped inside the "smaller" box (the kitchen isle, on the other opposite site); he's in the more open half of the frame, since Betty was the one who actually felt trapped and miserable in her life, without any sort of support from her husband, while he cheated with Candy, indirectly causing what happened to her.
Second shot: Really interesting composition. I love the use of wide lenses in this show to create an odd and eerie atmosphere. It's a perfect little town full of happy housewives, specially Candy, the start and friend everyone seems to love. But that's just her facade.
Third shot: In the scenes before the murder, Candy's always shown with sofe lights and shadows, warm, cozy. But in this sequence, we see her true side. Even if the scene is taking place at 11am, it's dark, full of shadows and harder lights that contour her face, allowing us to see the state of shock and worry she's in.
Fourth shot: One of my favorite shots of the show. Another unusual and very insteresting composition with a large amount of diagonal lights that reflect the unstability and anxiety Alan was going through.
