I really liked the writing in this show abt failed blood testing startup; Theranos, and made an edit comparing the show and real clips that were available. enjoy !

    The difference between Amanda's performance and Elizabeth's is that Amanda is playing a character who the audience knows is a psychopath, but is trying to put on a performance of a kind and trust-worthy person, while Elizabeth is actually playing a kind and trust-worthy character, who the audience doesn't know is actually a psychopath.

    YES thank you. Its a dive inside her mind, (although irl if her being a sociopath is true, there isn't nearly as much emotional conflict in her as they showed in the series). if she just did what we all saw then it wouldn't be any different than just watching holmes' life unravel irl

    I think Amanda made a few necessary changes to make it more 'cinematic'. The longer pauses and extra shaking is for the tension. Movies are always a bit exaggerated, and they need to be. Otherwise, it might as well be a documentary. I'm sure Amanda was instructed to be a bit more dramatic, and she did a phenomenal job.

I notice that Elizabeth's real hair in interviews is more disheveled looking than Amanda's, also I feel like Amanda didn't lower her voice to the same unnatural deepness that Elizabeth did. It's a strange situation of life being weirder than fiction.

    The difference between Holmes and Seyfried's portrayal is by the time The Dropout aired we were all in on the "gag" as it were. Playing Holmes strictly as herself would have actually made for a dull series, Amanda injected enough knowing into her portrayal to keep it grounded in reality but with that knowing wink to the audience that says "we all know how this ends, right?" Seyfried was just phenomenal in this role. I actually felt a little sorry for Holmes.

    Reminds me of how Ed Kemper was portrayed in Mindhunter. Based on available footage of him, the real life Ed Kemper seemed like a genuinely nice and ordinary guy. Kinda terrifying considering what he did. The actor who played him, although he did a phenomenal job, played a much creepier version. Something about his performance was just unsettling. This is just how it goes in dramatization of real events, as can also be seen in Amanda's portrayal of Holmes. Reality is heightened just a little.

    Amanda Seyfried nods and shakes her head too much. Holmes is very steady compared to Seyfried.

Seyfried hesitated way too long compared to Holmes when Holmes replied she didn't have very many secrets. When I look at Seyfried's performance she comes across unsure of what to say next. When I look at Holmes, she comes across as Dustin Hoffman Rain Man.

    Elizabeth does shake somewhat during the Bill Clinton interview and the white-background promo at the end, so it's not out of nowhere. But Elizabeth's shaking comes across as nervousness. Amanda exaggerates it a lot, and I agree she's doing it to reasons you said. It's funny you mentioned Rain Man, as I have a theory that Elizabeth has high functioning autism (formerly aspergers). It came across in the Charlie Rose interview the most...the way Elizabeth looks down like that and talks in such a deliberate way. That's not her searching for answers/lies like Amanda's portraying...that's her actually trying to recall what she wants to say and kind of force the words to come out. She has to look down because eye contact will ruin this whole process...classic autism symptom, among other signs I've noticed.

    People were impressed that she was 19 when she started.... If I were applying for an Executive Administrative Assistant position somewhere, they would want someone seasoned, older, and with a lot of experience. She was 19. And a drop out. And she gets applauded.... The people that got screwed in this situation should have needed a few more credentials than what she brought, or didn't bring, to the table. They wouldn't have hired an unseasoned Executive Assistant, yet they invested all of this money into her untested theories.

    As a 26 year old entrepreneur, i was looking for inspiring business movies or series to watch. It is now 3 AM, i could not stop binging The Dropout series. I stumbled onto this without diving too deep in the trailers. During episode 1,2 and 3 i was rooting for Elizabeth because the entrepreneurial spirit it takes to overcome obstacles. About 4 episodes in i started hating this woman with every fiber in me. By the time she changed her voice to be more "deep" i was about to pull my hair out. Can you imagine the bone chilling shock i got at the end of episode 8 when they started listing the real-life case updates, it was literally just then that i realized this was a real life event. I am young and not from the US, so i never heard of Theranos or the real Elizabeth. This is insane on a level unimaginable. Elizabeth, you are a disgrace to all Women, Humanity and the entire Entrepreneur Society. The fact that even after all this, you can remain cool about your crimes proves you are a psychopathic monster with alien eyes, a demons hart and an insufferable pretentious voice. I hope justice prevails in honor of all lives lost, families ruined financially or in health. F YOU!
