19. "Yes it did"
In response to In response to 16


  

          

There was a lot to accomplish here: give Precious' backstory, establishing the shop (and thus, the show's premise), and letting us see Precious do her thing and interact with everyone in her world, which was necessary for her to be credible as a detective... you just can't accomplish all of that in one hour, or even an hour, 30 minutes...

I thought the script was well-paced, and the direction was on-point (R.I.P., Anthony Minghella)...
