Lawmen: Bass Reeves 2023

[SkyShowtime] David Oyelowo delivers a complex portrayal of the character's rage and frustration throughout the story. During the season we witness the moral cost of carrying out his work, often faced with the persistence of racist attitudes. The first episodes tell the chronicle of a man who frees himself from slavery to try to lead a life in freedom, while the second half, once Bass Reeves adopts his position as a man of law, delves into a personal contradiction about the way in which he has become a representative of the very laws created and imposed by the white man, the same ones that justified slavery. But this introspective character that the story adopts slows down the pace and makes it somewhat more boring in the last episodes.
