Banshee: The Truth About Unicorns (2014)
Season 2, Episode 5
10/10
Visually Stunning
21 January 2015
Warning: Spoilers
A few have downgraded this episode because it doesn't "mesh" with the standard Banshee universe in it's directorial style. I say it is without a doubt the most artistically visionary episode I've seen so far in the series.

Potential Spoilers Ahead: Visually beautiful, using expansive contrastive shots from multiple angles. Excellent choice of music in combination with the cinematography to really bring home how the characters can really never escape the "sins" of their past and no matter how much they dream, hope or plan for a "clean" future, the "dirty past" is always right there.

Reminded me a lot of Michael Mann's directorial style which I really like. To each there own I guess but I found this episode captivating and thought provoking. 10 out of 10 for me.
