Good Morning, World

.
Have any of you watched Damien Chazelle's series The Eddy on Netflix yet? It stars two fella swe're huge fans of -- Andre Holland and this fella here, Tahar Rahim. One, I have not watched The Eddy yet but I want to, with that cast. And two, these photos aren't from The Eddy, they're from Tahar's other TV series I haven't watched, called The Last Panthers, from a couple of years ago. Anyway it's Tahar's 39th birthday in a couple of days -- he was born on the fourth of July! -- so we figured we'd celebrate while we could; hit the jump for several photos, gifs, and assorted pleasures of that sort...

To be quiet honest the Eddy was a disappointment on many aspects : the gangster story is very weak and feels like a bad deja vu all through the episodes. And the two main characters of Father and daughter played by Andre Holland and Amandla Sternberg come off as vividly annoying and too self-centered compared to all the other characters who show a lot more dignity or trouble in their sobriety. Those two arcs were just awfully written.
That being said, the music is great, the actors too and the third episode about how Leila Bekhti's character goes through at a funeral is just MAGICAL. This one and the 55 minutes about how the bassist reconnects with a lost love, stand alone on their feet perhaps because they're separable from that awful murder story. Anyway, I'm impatient to hear your thoughts about it as I love your reviews :)))
lots f love ^^
