Desconozco dónde nos llevará la serie, si nos conducirá a buenas experiencias o nos dejará “perdidos” en el desencanto. Pero este episodio piloto es de por sí cautivante, sentí durante su hora de duración como si David Lynch nos estuviera mostrando su percepción del universo mutante que publica la editorial estadounidense Marvel.
Te
aconsejo que veas este episodio piloto sin esperarte ninguna historia de
supertipos, ni ninguna histeria sobre inseguridades adolescentes.
Gracias
I’ve just seen the first TV episode of «Legion»
a show produced by FX and run by Noah Hawley.
The one-hour length episode blew my mind, I felt as if
David Lynch were sharing his take on
Marvel’s mutants. I hope the remaining episodes will keep up to the brain-washing
pacing of this “ninolicious” pilot, which stands alone by itself as a
refreshing and suggesting story.
The following is a copy/paste of a promotional
article
«Legion», based on the Marvel Comics by Chris
Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, is the story of David Haller (Dan Stevens), a
troubled young man who may be more than human. Diagnosed as schizophrenic as a
child, David has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals for years. Now in his
early 30s and institutionalized once again, David loses himself in the rhythm
of the structured regimen of life in the hospital: breakfast, lunch, dinner,
therapy, medications, sleep. David spends the rest of his time in companionable
silence alongside his chatterbox friend Lenny (Aubrey Plaza), a fellow patient
whose life-long drug and alcohol addiction has done nothing to quell her
boundless optimism that her luck is about to change. The pleasant numbness of
David's routine is completely upended with the arrival of a beautiful and
troubled new patient named Syd (Rachel Keller). Inexplicably drawn to one
another, David and Syd share a startling encounter, after which David must
confront the shocking truth…
