I just read your KE finale analysis, and I totally agree. I’m not sure if you typically take KE asks, but I was wondering who your fav character was? I love Villanelle (even though she’s done some terrible stuff lol) Jodie Comer is just so talented.
Thank you so much! I take asks for anything really, haha, I've just never really gotten Killing Eve ones before, so these have been pretty fun.
I love a lot of the characters in Killing Eve, and while I adore Villanelle a lot (like you said, Jodie's fantastic!), Eve really is my favourite. I just love Sandra Oh, and I'm particularly interested in character arcs which involve a person's moral decline (in case you couldn't tell from all my GG love, haha). At the show's best, it explored Eve's intrigue so well, and the emotional complexity and sort of - - mmm, I guess I'd say fracture of identity that came along with that.
I especially loved the way her attraction to who Villanelle was and what she represented just burned a hole through her life, and the way Eve was never entirely sure if she should stamp the fire of that out or fan the embers of it was just so rich and interesting.
To me, Eve was always a character self-immolating to see what would grow out of the ash of her, and I find that just so wildly compelling. The fact that it was so well realised by Sandra Oh, and involved the crazy, sexy, emotionally rich chemistry with Jodie Comer's Villanelle too was just confetti to me, haha.
