Sutherland plays the patriarch of the Getty family during the tumultuous early 1970's when his grandson was kidnapped.
So much context is provided to tell the story, it's really enjoyable. Hillary Swank gives a memorable performance as the mother of the kidnapped Paul Getty III.
The production is lavish. Set mostly against the backdrop of beautiful southern Italy, where the economic turmoil is ever present in the lives of the peasants and townspeople who live there. This also helps the viewer understand why the locals would go to such extremes to acquire money.
This series exposes the greed and ruthlessness of the Getty empire. And by the way, Brendan Fraser delivers an unforgettable performance throughout. Just perfect. What an amazing actor.
