Dark Money (2019)
9/10
compelling drama
8 August 2019
I don't normally binge watch TV, but I found this drama so hypnotising I was hooked after the first episode.

It centres on Isaac, a new Hollywood child actor, taken advantage of by a paedophile producer. It illustrated the devastation that can be wrought, not just on a victim's young mind, but on marriages and other relationships.

The acting was compelling,and the characters nuanced, aside from perhaps the interfering mother-in-law who I didn't really feel added anything to the script.

We witnessed the intimidating nature of the Hollywood machine and how the temptation of vast amounts of money offered to a couple struggling financially , interfered with their ability to think clearly about the best course of action for their son.

A very important, topical drama in these disturbing times.
