Murder is all around us. Or so says HBO’s latest dark marital thriller, The Undoing, which offers an East Coast version of the very successful Big Little Lies.
Based on Jean Hanff Korelitz’s novel You Should Have Known, the show follows successful New York City therapist Grace (Nicole Kidman) who lives a picture-perfect life with her precocious son Henry (Noah Jupe) and life-saving paediatrician husband Jonathan (Hugh Grant). It’s produced in classic David E Kelley style, in which bloody murder is never far from a tan rug in a $5m house.
