Babies, starring Paapa Essiedu
-
I've been seeing clips of this show, called Babies, a 6-part miniseries from BBC One. I doubt anyone here will see it, heck I've only seen quite a few clips. It follows a couple as they deal with miscarriages, etc. Of course the topic hits many people close to their heart, miscarriages of various forms are very common.
But I posted here because the acting and the nuances in the show are ridiculously good. For example, when they go in for their 12 week scan, it's like a 3-minute still shot on the couples face as the technician scans for the baby and it goes from hope and joy slowly to sorrow, with just beeps and other sounds or comments. Or when the wife confronts her husband that the losses are "their" losses, not just hers, but he lost his babies too. It's really memorable acting, similar to "it's not your fault" from Good Will Hunting.
Here's the trailer, the 2nd video is the ultrasound scene.
Of course, watch with caution, I'm sure many here including me have personal experiences with fertility and complications. Again, I just wanted to remark about the acting. The actor I think places Snape in the latest Harry Potter series, btw.
