Episode six is a mixture of great small details of crime and character interspersed between some scenes of the townsfolk socializing that felt too broad and clumsy to persuade me of their mob mentality.

What comes across in "Cherry" is how the characters use words...When people speak, it's not so much the words they speak, but the tone and intent behind what they say.

What's fascinating is that Camille's old friends do have those resources, and some combination of inertia, fear and the pride they take in being at the top of the social order keeps them frozen in place.

Like a "plump, juicy cherry" with a "dark, hard pit." "Cherry" shows us the way Wind Gap views and shapes its women, treating them like gorgeous confections and leaving them with dark, resentful hearts.

I know there are mixed feelings about the pace of Sharp Objects, but I'm enjoying its slow creep immensely.
August 13, 2018
"Sharp Objects" is an excellent mystery because its red herrings aren't the typical time-filling distractions; they're used to make a point.

Sharp Objects jettisons the completely linear, bird's-eye-view viewpoint we saw last episode on Calhoun Day to put us deeper than ever into Camille's masterfully edited, jittery, deteriorating mental state.

"Cherry" is a powerhouse of an episode... It crackles and sings with such an astute understanding of mood it left me feeling as bruised as Camille does at the end.

All over Wind Gap, people are waking up.

I'll never get sick of The Acid's trippy "Tumbling Lights." It so perfectly encapsulates Camille's enchantingly demented hallucinations.
