Happy Valley is a masterclass in breaking TV tropes about violence against women ✒️ stefanohat for ipaperviews
, violence against women has been the default premise behind so many of our most critically acclaimed dramas that I began wondering why I was watching.
Women, often naked and bruised, found brutalised, dismembered or wrapped in cling-film, formed the opening scenes of so much television or movie drama that it became horribly normalised. The difference between the critically acclaimed shows above and the rest being that in “less serious” drama, violence and its aftermath is cartoon-esque and retains no lasting impact.
