SHOW ME A HERO
August 23, 2015  | By David Bianculli

HBO, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
Parts 3 and 4 of 6. Oscar Isaac continues to burn brightly as a Yonkers politician in this fact-based story from David Simon and his collaborators, who include director Paul Haggis. And what seemed at first to be the story of a young politician on a meteoric rise, becomes, by tonight’s two episodes, something much more complicated – just like its characters. For my full review, see Bianculli’s Blog, or read and hear my review at NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross website.
