What are you talking about?

Crook Charles Sobhraj’s story and excellent attempts to bring it to the Dutch diplomat Herman Kenipenberg to bring it fair. As a precious stone merchant, Charles Sobhraj and his partner Marie-Andre Leklerki travel to Thailand, Nepal and India in 1975 and 1976, committing a series of crimes on the “trail” of the Asian Trail.

With whom?

Between the drama, the thriller and the biopic, the snake is a British series that ordered the BBC in 2019 and which was a great success in 2021 on Netflix. In order to play the role of the title, the producers set their sights to Tahar Rahim. The French actress is well aware of international performances. We see it on a small screen, especially in the dying tower or in the Panthers. And here he is almost unrecognized.

Next to him, Jenna Coleman-Famous Rolls with a doctor who recently played by Marie-Andre Leklerk, Charles Sobraj’s companion as a complicity. In front of this fateful tandem, British Billy Hell (Rey’s father Star Wars: Skywalker’s Ascent) performs Herman Knipenberg, a Dutch diplomat who has done everything to finish the couple’s hell.

Finally, Matilda Warnier, who had previously seen in the service of France, plays the role of a friend of a French woman, neighbor, and Charles and Marie-Andri who lives under fake IDs.

Is it worth the website?

As close as possible to reality, the snake quickly impresses. Realism enjoys filming that was partially carried out in Thailand, India and Nepal. The rising and huge heat is significant. First of all, we quickly find that this is another thing other than another thriller serial killer.

The snake reflects the table not so charming, it seems to be there since the 1970s and at the time in Asia. Young backpacks who go on the road to the famous Hippie Trail are from the Western Consumer Society.

It is illustrated for frequent use of drugs for recreational purposes, but which is moving forward. The series shows young vulnerable people in search of importance, drugs and religions, in a society that begins to fall, even without knowing it.

Very careful realization, during the first four episodes of Tom Shankland, and the Hans Herbots of the following four, play perfectly with the 1970s thriller codes. From the balcony to the balcony, the dimensions of the pool -mounted character, the grain of the image, the substances that are reasonably sinked into the cup by Charles, which throws in the corner of his victim … everything reminds us earlier.

A well -named

If Charles Sobraj is nicknamed the snake, it is an incredible ability to move between the network nets and escape the police. The series also shows how seductive he is and manages to hypnotize his victim, just like the KAA, the snake jungle book.

When the poor Hires crosses his way, Charles immediately determines their weaknesses and their expectations. They are looking for adventure, freedom, novelty, self -determination. And Charles gives them the illusion to complement all of their desires.

In the shoes of the killer, Tahar Rahim is terrible. First attractive, then it reveals the dark side of the character. Face, a simple change of addiction is enough to sort the alarm. The sound is incredible, fluid movements, muscular body … It has everything a strong predator that deceives its prey in its attire.

Next to him, Mari-Andrei has a kind of multi. Jenna Koleman shows the slow evolution of the character with all its blurry and contradictions. The first shy and bad in her skin, she gains insurance. Then, when he realized the actions of his companion, he ends at the intersection of the return point.

The snake spins the energy of its story, which continues the chronology of history back and forth. If you feel lost from the beginning, it is in favor of a series that forms a vice -viewer around the viewer, to better mention the art of coercion by Sobraj. Strong.

The snake was transferred this Monday, July 21, at 9:10 pm. In France 2 and fully available in France. tv
