'Mare of Easttown' revealed the killer, but that's not what the show was about
CNN
"Mare of Easttown's" heroine finally cracked the case -- twice, as it turned out -- but that wasn't really the point of this engrossing HBO limited series. Instead, the show dealt with themes of forgiveness, redemption and finding the strength to move past grief and tragedy.
The finale actually had a big chance of being a letdown, or at least a little anticlimactic, after the riveting shootout that closed its fifth episode, but the two that followed, including Sunday night's conclusion, still had a lot of business to get done.More Related News
