Normal People

I have to say I was waiting to see this for a long time and thought it would move me like an Aftersun did or like an Eternal Sunshine did. It did not. Maybe it's not my kind of story. I tried to watch this in one or two sessions as I think it is necessary to get fully invested in a love story like such. Still, I couldn't get invested. Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones sure have a great chemistry but it felt like it was always missing something. They were either having sex or having deep emotional convos all the time, but we barely saw them sharing a laugh or talking like Normal People, which would make me root for them much more. The story just drags for 12 episodes with the same structure, when all their problems could be resolved if they just talked!!! I know it's the point the show, showing their insecurities and such but I thought I was going to lost it when they broke up because Cornell had to go home for two (2) months ??? People are talking about "Right people, wrong timing", I don't know, it sometimes looked like it was nothing more than wrong people. I'm not sure yet but I also think it don't like the ending. I don't really see the point of taking them apart one final time 5 minutes before the end of the show, when everything seemed to go so well. STILL. The experience wasn't as unpleasant as it could seem by reading this. Really strong ambiance with the cinematography, the colors, the perfect music choices (being the melancholic piano melodies or the needle-drops at the end of each 3pisode). Absolutely incredible acting from both acting leads. Paul Mescal crushed my heart at least five different times, my favorite episode probably was the 10th. Daisy Edgar-Jones, while being more subtle in her acting and having less demonstrative scenes was amazing.
