If the finale loses the absolute delicacy of touch that has marked the rest of the series, as the large emotions surface at last, that is a vanishingly small criticism of an offbeat, charming and moving creation from Minchin and everyone else. It was beaut.
-
It was cinematically shot by director Matthew Saville, all shimmering deserts, empty highways and widescreen skies. An eclectic soundtrack pumped, pounded and added momentum. The chemistry between the two leads crackled.
-
“Upright” shines when its two leads are allowed to develop and explore their disparate depression, rather than simply wallow in it. If they’d been given more time to talk openly to one another, perhaps the series would feel more substantial.
