I saw "The Alienist" during the quarantine. I found it quite soft, but really interesting.
It tells about a psychologist, one of the first during the last ten years of 1800. He would study better the mind of people and he wants to help children who have some psychological problems. There's also his best friend, that is a very good photographer. The two works secretly to a police murder case to find out who is really guilty. The corpse is found on a small bridge, mutilated. After the first corpse, others are found all around the little Neighborhood. The psychologist and the photographer find a very valid help from the only one woman who's working in the police station.
The atmosphere of the series is quite dark and there are also some good plot twists. I found it a good series to watch during quarantine because it talks about innovation. The psychologist is trying to convince other people that the brain is the most complicated organ of our body and that the methods used until that moment to heal mad people are completely wrong. The female presence in the police station is a very rare case for those years, in fact, her presence isn't well seen from most of the policemen.
A few days ago came out the 2nd series here in Italy, so...I know what I can watch this weekend.
What do you think about the 1st series? Did you like it? Let me know in the comments!
Have a nice day!
