my analysis of HBO's new series 'the Idol' starring Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd, from A24 film production with an original score form Mike Dean.
In the gripping second episode, the dark influence of Tedros becomes increasingly apparent. Through twisted scenes and dark symbolism, the show delves into his ability to possess and manipulate those around him. The imagery of puppets, held captive by strings, serves as a haunting metaphor for the power dynamics at play, highlighting Tedros' role as a puppet master who shapes the lives of those under his control. This unsettling display underscores the depth of his manipulation and the ominous atmosphere surrounding his actions.
I also go over what i believe to be references to mind control and the Manson family come to the forefront. Similar to Charles Manson, Tedros possesses a magnetic charm and exerts control over his followers, drawing parallels to the notorious Manson family. The eerie resemblance between Jocelyn's friend Leia and Sharon Tate, a victim of the Manson family, adds an unsettling layer to the narrative. This connection amplifies the sense of foreboding, casting a shadow over the characters' interactions and intensifying the exploration of power, desire, and the dark consequences they may entail.
