Awards & Rankings
-
The never-ending fantasy scenes of canoodling between Jules and her virtual lover Tyler (with whom she had communicated only by text) certainly threatened to drag the action into artsier 50 Shades of Grey territory, but Schafer’s brooding performance and an ever-present melancholy kept melodrama at bay.
-
The special finds its strength in sparseness, something it occasionally loses sight of in favour of psychedelic fantasy sequences more typical of Euphoria’s aesthetic. The strongest scenes are of Jules on the couch simply attempting to find the words for her feelings, and when the camera careens into purple-hued sex montages, your only wish is to be brought back into the calm of the therapist’s office.

Schafer’s performance (and writing) clearly elevates this episode, holding our attention with everything from a subtle lip quiver to a heart-wrenching sob.
