#218 – The Innocent | Directed by Oriol Paulo (with Rolo Tony)

Tune in as Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony) returns to 2CC for a breakdown of The Innocent, the 2021 Netflix mystery-thriller miniseries about the secrets and violence that burst out into the open after a husband and soon-to-be father, who had served four years in prison for negligent homicide, starts receiving strange texts about his wife. Repeatedly comparing this show to Gone Girl, handling (and mishandling) depictions of sexual violence, rooting for Mario Casas to make a career transition to Hollywood, and appreciation for foley artists emerge as some of the topics on this episode.

Directed by Oriol Paulo, The Innocent stars Mario Casas, Aura Garrido, Alexandra Jiménez, José Coronado, Martina Gusmán, Juana Acosta, Gonzalo de Castro, Ana Wagener, Miki Esparbé, Xavi Sáez, Anna Alarcón, Susi Sánchez, Oriol Vila, Mima Riera, Javier Beltrán, Santi Pons, Aysha Daraaui, Asia Ortega, and Alejandro Toro Cuenca.

Spoilers start at 32:50
