S01e04 Hdtvrip: The Bay

Analysis of The Bay (S01E04, HDTVrip), directed by Lee Haven Jones, written by Daragh Carville.

The high resolution captures the cold sore on her lip, the bags under her eyes—physical manifestations of the lie she is protecting regarding her son’s involvement. The format refuses to let the audience escape into abstraction; we are forced to witness the forensic detail of her deterioration. Analysis of The Bay (S01E04, HDTVrip), directed by
