I am, however, more than happy to remain in the thrall of its stream-of-conscious, fever-dream aesthetic, a nonlinear storytelling style that was used occasionally in Big Little Lies and serves as the foundation on which Sharp Objects is built. I wanted to live inside that show I definitely do not want to live inside Sharp Objects.

Its mix of southern gothic and small-town grit is not as blatantly alluring as the sunny, oceanfront luxuries on display in Big Little Lies. For starters, it is consistently darker in tone. Every time I recently tried to watch an episode of literally any other show, I thought: “Why am I watching this when I could be watching Sharp Objects right now?” I said the same thing during the all-too-brief Big Little Lies binge of 2017.īut, of course, Sharp Objects departs significantly from its Monterey-based predecessor.

Even my response to Sharp Objects reminded me of my response to Big Little Lies in that I instantly became addicted to and obsessed with the second Vallée series just like I did with the first. Both highlight music’s ability to transport human beings to other places and times. Both star Academy Award–nominated actresses - in Sharp Objects, that would be Amy Adams and Patricia Clarkson, who plays a woman that could be described as an older, more somber version of Reese Witherspoon’s Madeline Martha MacKenzie, if Madeline were also a character in an exceptionally twisted Tennessee Williams play. Both traffic in buried secrets, the degree to which a town defines its populace, and women who feel obligated to keep up appearances. The two overlap in a number of ways, actually. The same can be said about Sharp Objects, the HBO limited series based on Gillian Flynn’s novel that’s directed and edited by Vallée. Big Little Lies was an HBO drama, directed by Jean-Marc Vallée, with a murder mystery embedded in its intoxicating center.
