It is difficult to believe that anyone believes Bill Pullman did a great job with this. Murdaugh was 53 was he committed the murders; a robust, vibrant mover and shaker. Pullman was in his late 60's when he played this role. I don't know if Pullman is really a shaky, doddering old man, but he sure plays one. The squint, the waver in the voice, the "old man" ambling, the slump to the shoulders . . . None of it is age appropriate. My father was in better shape into his early 80's. My father-in-law is 86 and still golfs and works! C'mon - who can believe this is supposed to be Alex Murdaugh? It is difficult to get past the awful acting and see the story. I watched it only because I could leave, do laundry, clean, and come back to see Pullman still trying to pull this off. I also wanted to get the gist of the story, which is the only thing this is adequate for. Save yourself some time. Watch a documentary.
