> Just finished watching all four episodes of **Hinterland** that Netflix had available. Beautifully shot in a dazzling, minimalist landscape. Lots of empty fields, few trees. The episodes could be shorter by one-third if the hero spent less time **staring into the middle distance and glowering like Russell Crowe**. He’s a man of very few words who makes Leroy Jethro Gibbs look verbose. Still, it’s worth a look.

Hey, it’s what he does. That, and immediately driving off in his car as soon as he is shown some piece of juicy evidence that the blond gal or nerdy Lloyd have come up with. :dubious:
