Why Jamie Dornan Deserves More Credit

The answer is actually quite lot. Jamie Dornan is an Irish actor aged 35 years, born May 1st, 1982. He’s played many diverse roles, and he’s taken them all on beautifully. There is no doubt that Jamie Dornan is extremely talented and deserves every enjoyable role that comes his way. It’s obvious he truly puts his heart and soul into developing a character and turning them into someone the audience can connect with. It’s almost like he leaves a little bit of himself in every character he takes on. He tries to find ways in which he can relate to a character, whether it be something big, like their personality, or something small, like the way they talk. No matter what, Jamie Dornan executes it brilliantly. Now one of these brilliantly executed roles that Jamie has taken on is the one that I will be telling you all about today. Simply, just for now, I will be talking about only one of those many things about Mr. Jamie Dornan. When most think of Jamie Dornan, they picture the handsome, troubled billionaire known as Mr. Christian Grey himself. While he is one great human to look at, there is easily much more to Mr. Dornan than meets the eye. Like I mentioned above, I am here to talk about just one of those things for now, so, without anymore interruptions, I give you, Jamie Dornan as Paul Spector in The Fall. The Fall is a British-Irish drama series about “a serial killer who preys on victims in and around Belfast, Northern Ireland, and the other is a female detective drafted from the London Metropolitan Police to catch him.” Dornan plays the aforementioned serial killer known as Paul Spector. In this three-season running thriller, Dornan displays incredible acting and takes on one hell of a character and makes it look so easy. He portrays Spector in such an expert way that he makes the viewers despise him all the while keeping enough little spots and characteristics that give him that slightest bit of likability that truly drives this character throughout the show. Paul Spector is easily one beast of a character to take on with every single attribute and characteristic he possesses, but, yet again, Dornan makes it looks flawlessly easy. Considering he is a bereavement counselor in the “second half” of his everyday life, one may wonder how he does what he does at night. All I can simply say to that is, watch and find out. Jamie’s truly captivating and intense acting really captures every single feature of Spector, and it is something that deserves way more credit. If you have not seen this series, I would highly recommend you do it as soon as you can. You’ll be hooked by the first episode. “Now, where can I see this for myself?” Great question, you can watch The Fall on Netflix and see for yourself, which is what I would recommend. This character portrayal is not something to overlook, give it a watch and you will see.

The video above does what most trailers do, gives insight on the film. I highly recommend you watch it. In the first ten seconds I bet you will already be captivated.
