HBO’s new dramedy RainDogs, starring Daisy May Cooper and Jack Farthing, is as emotionally fraught as it is sharply funny. Our review:
Life, for all the ways we strive to make order out of it, is abundantly messy. Tragedy and comedy can become closely intertwined as we try to keep our heads above water when everything threatens to drown us. In Rain Dogs, the terrific yet tumultuous HBO dramedy, we observe this in all its complicated glory.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Created by Cash Carraway, Rain Dogs first introduces us to Costello when she seems to be at her lowest. An aspiring writer who is barely making ends meet by working at a London peep show, she is being kicked out of her flat. Making matters more complicated is that Costello isn’t alone as she has her daughter Iris with her.
There is a delicate balance that Carraway must strike, and there are many sequences where it feels like she could be losing a handle on it. The absurdity of small moments is what manages to cut through the noise, bringing into focus how it is that people manage to endure. It is not solely because of strength as everyone will eventually reach their breaking point. Rather, it is both out of necessity and her friends that Costello keeps moving forward.
As Costello tries to find a way forward through the rubble of her life for her and her daughter, this impermanence gets brought increasingly into focus. She isn’t without flaw, and she herself remarks at one point that she isn’t a good person. This is said with a wry sensibility in a comedic back-and-forth, though it also proves to be revealing about how she knows she may be falling short when it counts.
