Durham County returns tonight to make us squirm

DurhamCountySeason3From Denise Duguay of the Montreal Gazette:

  • Durham County returns. Squirm
    “I admire Durham County because it is a very well put together drama. The turns in this story of a detective and his bloody work and life play against expectation, but not so often that they too become expected. The acting is just enough and not too much. The visual style is all its own. But I also find Durham County sometimes impossible to watch because it puts all these things to use in the study of very, very disturbing subjects and themes, all hideously, vividly illustrated.” Read more.

Interview: Hugh Dillon on Durham County

From Andrew Ryan of the Globe and Mail:

  • Hugh Dillon draws on rocker mindset for raw role in Durham County
    “Against all odds, Hugh Dillon has become The Man. In recent years, the Kingston native and onetime rock-‘n’-roll animal has matured into a serious authority figure on Canadian television. On the hit homegrown police drama Flashpoint, Dillon has drawn notice for his portrayal of lead sniper Ed Lane; on the much-acclaimed cable series Durham County, he’s even more intense as the troubled homicide detective Mike Sweeney.” Read more.
