Told from Dahmer’s point of view

Scenario

An anthology series about high-profile crimes or murderers in the public eye and fame… Evan Peters [Jeffrey Dahmer] says they had one rule from Ryan Murphy [creator] going into the series: That they would never. "As an audience, you don’t really sympathize with him. You are not really in his position.

Featured in Jeremy Vine : Episode #5195 (2022)

You observe it from the outside, you know.". Many episodes feature 3M Command(TM) tape in Jeffrey Dahmer’s apartment, the latest in 1991. 3M introduced its first line of Command(TM) products in 1996. There are two monsters in this heartbreaking and gripping story, but they’re not Eric (Cooper Koch) and Lyle (Nicolas Alexander Chavez), they’re Jose (Javier Bardem) and Kitty (Chloe Savini).

He’s a straight Truman Capote

I don’t want to go too deep into the legal aspects of this case as this is not a documentary but a drama series. However, if Eric and Lyle had Erica and Layla – two daughters – I’d say they’d never spend time in jail. This is not to say that Eric and Lyle are innocent, but the mitigating circumstances were so overwhelming and compelling that they should have been sentenced to 10 years in prison for manslaughter. Then there’s Dominic Dunne (Nathan Lane), a sleazy man who traded gossip and cocktails with celebrities.

Abramson is behind the camera (we never see her face) and Lyle is facing

I want to highlight episode 5 of 'The Hart Man.' There are only two characters in the entire scene: Leslie Abramson (Ari Gainer) and Eric. Director Michael Uppendahl places the camera about 12 feet from the table where the two are sitting. Slowly, imperceptibly, the camera pans over Abramson until he moves past it, ending with a close-up of Eric as he explains the title of the episode. Riveting!

Nicolas Chavez is also excellent as Lyle

Cooper Koch always does a great job, but especially in this episode. Javier Bardem and Chloe Savini stand out as Jose and Kitty.
