Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

Nashville

2011
Drama
If you liked Thelma & Louise, Mad Money and Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, then you are probably a fan of award-winning screenwriter Callie Khouri. Her talented writing had secured ABC's new television series Nashville positions as a huge hit of 2012-2013 seasons. The TV show depicts life and struggle of country music star Rayna James to get back on the big stage. Her last chance is her next promo tour, which she has no chances to fail, just because if she fails, her future career as country music star will be very questionable if possible at all. To make chances higher, Rayna takes in her tour, a young starlet Juliette Barnes, whose young sexy power is expected to be in some help to make Rayna's promotion more effective. There are no doubts that both singers are pursuing their own goals. If, the first one wants not to fade away from stardom, the second one wants to take her place in the stage. The next problem is that Rayna's father, Lamar Wyatt, who is powerful politician and a wealthy man of Nashville, seems to be disapproved in Ryana's abilities to regain her stardom glory. As a controlling patriarch he's betting on Rayna's husband, Teddy Conrad, who was living on Rayna's revenues, and now is trying to make a career as mayor of Nashville (thanks to help of a father-in-law). Such a twisted plot is accompanied by masterfully selected and combined ensemble cast: Ryana James is played by Connie Britton (a Vivien Harmon in American Horror Story and Diane Huxley in 24 television series), while the young teenage music star Juliette Barnes, is played by Hayden Panettiere (Kirby Reed in Scream franchise.)

Human Target

2021
Drama
Using state-of-the-art technology and amazing skill with make-up and costuming, Chance, the main character, becomes literally a human target. In each episode of "Human Target," Chance assumes the identity and everyday life of a prominent person in danger. Describing himself as an "extreme bodyguard," Chance uses his wits, skills, and wise-cracking bravado to turn serious danger into a trap for the villains. The sinister evil-doers plot kidnapping, blackmail, extortion, and especially death; the "human target" plots capture. Not the kind of thing for which an ordinary guy usually would volunteer. "Human Target" TV show was praised by the critics and audiences for the quality of the acting"”especially the performances by Earl Haley, Jr., which make a somewhat implausible premise absolutely believable and compelling. Because "Human Target," a decidedly out-of-the-box crime drama, is loosely based on the DC comic series of the same name, the creators have no shortage of bad guys, nor do they struggle to find quirky characters for Chance to impersonate. Critics and audiences agree that the actors playing the three main characters go a long way toward redeeming the show's average, sometimes genuinely awkward writing. They wonder, though, will the actors be able to hold the viewers' attention and loyalty long enough for the writing to fulfill the promise in the premise?
