Movie #2133 " The Staircase" (HBO Max, 8 episodes) I must admit I stuck with this after watching the first one because of the three major stars in it: Colin Firth, Juliette Binoche, and Toni Colette. The first episode put me off a bit because there were too many kids and former wives and girlfriends to keep track of, and I found out that the ending (who killed the wife) wasn't going to have a definitive ending in this show. However, I really enjoy forensics and studying the clues and coming up with suggestions as to what happened. And if that sounds intriguing to you, then this is the show for you. I found the Owl theory, especially intriguing --- could that have happened? I give this a 4 out of 5. P.S. I thought with the possible murderer being a crime novelist that if he planned her death it would have been better done ---- maybe that's why it probably wasn't Michael Peterson even if a lot of baggage in his life makes him look guilty? If you saw this, I would love to hear what you thought about this and who had done it.
