![]() ![]() ![]() I have known about lucid dreaming as a cure for night terrors for years. Yes, it might seem odd that the other aspect of a show about a torrid affair would be about lucid dreaming, but that's what sets this show apart. ![]() But while a three-hander show about infidelity isn't that original, this show has something else going for it, lucid dreaming. Why else would she be so closely monitored and medicated by her husband? It didn't feel like control to me, it felt like barely maintained equilibrium. Though Louise suspects that David doesn't understand his wife, but, for me, I knew from day one that Adele was the problem and David was right. It doesn't matter that David is married, that Louise even ends up befriending his wife Adele behind his back, they are drawn to each other like magnets. The problem is her connection to David is electric. The show starts out with the classic comedy trope, what if you met a handsome stranger at a bar and you find out the next day he's your new boss? That's exactly what happens to Louise. It's about gobbling up each and every clue you're given and trying to piece together the puzzle until at the end you didn't quite see it coming because it changed the rules while you weren't fully aware that it did. Confusing no? But that's what Behind Her Eyes is all about. So while I actually got the ending of Behind Her Eyes wrong I was technically right. I don't just want to get to the bottom of it all before the reveal, I need to. I'm that person who picks apart a show as I'm watching it. Book Review - Nancy Springer's Enola Holmes and th.I might get crucified for it, but there’s no looking back!"īehind her eyes premieres on Netflix on Wednesday, Feb. We basically just locked ourselves in a room in the production offices for two weeks and went through the whole thing and then I kind of winged it. "I knew this amazing dialect coach William Connacher, who worked on The Crown, and if there was anyone who could get my accent right in two weeks - it was him. "My agent is going to kill me for saying this, but he basically lied to the producers and said that I could do an English accent!" she says. I had two weeks to put something together and I ended up reading the book out loud in my terrible English accent, trying to get into it, so that was how I read it!" Eve Hewson on learning an English accent. "I’d just about read the scripts when they told me I had to do an English accent, which was a bit of a shock. "I found out about the final twist over the phone with the director, so I didn’t get the journey that everyone else did," laughs the Irish star. Įve was cast with only two weeks left before production on the series began, so she didn't get a chance to enjoy the book as she would have like to! Trying new things is not what actors get to do a lot of the time, because often directors want you to play it safe, which is a bit boring!"Īdele (Eve Hewson), her husband David (Tom Bateman) and Louise (Simona Brown) form a dark love triangle (Image credit: Netflix) Eve Hewson on THAT ending. Eric Richter Strand (the show's director) was really into us trying more off-beat choices and if we’ve had someone different he might have been afraid to take those choices. "Tom and I genuinely had a great time on set and the tone of it is generally quite camp and theatrical, so there was a lot to experiment with. But it came so easily to me, I don’t know why!" explains Eve. "I had a really fun time playing this character, which is probably a bit disturbing. She’s really attracted to Louise and wants to get close to her." Eve Hewson on playing those tense marital scenes. When she bumps into Louise I think it’s sort of exciting and making a friend and having a girlfriend to go and get coffee with or go to the gym with. "David has his job, his work life, but she’s a housewife and David is very controlling, so she’s not really allowed to go outside or talk to people. "At the beginning of the series Adele and David have a difficult and very complex relationship," says Eve. After moving to London with her husband, David, Adele doesn't know anyone and is delighted to make a friend when she bumps into Louise. ![]()
