Thinking about how Issa Lopez is a woman who was born and grew up in Mexico, a country where you are hyper aware and exposed from a very young age to violence, especially the sort violence men perpetrate against women and how those women never get justice (especially indigenous women) because either the justice system doesn't care, it's corrupt or it participates in this violence , so she gave us a story of women taking justice into their own hands after the system has failed them and i think its fucking amazing

Come on Night Country lovers! Let's get it out of its rotten audience score and defeat the racist/misogynistic losers complaining about it being "woke"

Can't stop thinking about Night Country. That feminine rage is cold and hard; old, older than everything else, and buried deep. That a woman alone is a dead woman; a woman alone is the most dangerous thing. That a man's ego is more important than a woman's life. That a woman who speaks up isn't silenced, she's destroyed. That women are strongest when they're together, when they speak, when they sing. When they're seen.
That what men want for themselves is reason enough to lay waste to everything else. That when it's weighed on the scales, their chance to live a little longer is worth more than a baby's first breath. That they'll do whatever it takes, even when it poisons all of our water.
How a mother dies and her daughter dies too, but a son can't live until he's killed his own father. How women only have power when they lie, assume the role of men, align themselves to men, or die.
And when they will no longer clean up after them.
When they honor who came before, paint the protest on their face, and learn their real name. When they emerge from the ice, leave the night behind and walk toward the sun instead of into the sea. When they shape their own stories. When their tongue is returned to them.
What a fucking masterpiece.
I guess she wanted to take them. I guess she ate their fuckin' dreams from the inside out and spit their frozen bones.

True Detective: Night Country
Wow! Issa López (Tigers Are Not Afraid) is a force. If Night Country can stick the landing with its final episode it'll easily be one of the best shows I've seen. Haunting, subversive, super fucking cool. Big time recommended.

We forget that we are princes, warriors, tigers, when the things from outside come to get us.

True Detective: Night Country (prod. Issa López).
An inverse of the first season's sweaty Louisiana masculinity, this season is set in frozen darkness during the annual month-long period of continous nighttime in a remote Northern Alaskan town as López both enhances and subverts what intially drew audiences to pulpy detective drama.

learning that nic pizzolatto isn’t the writer for the upcoming true detective season has me tentatively optimistic for it…
also the fact that it’s written and directed by issa lópez 👀 tigers are not afraid was so bleak and magical… can’t wait to see what she’ll do with true detective
