And it’s very much there as a theme of all the seasons of ‘Fargo’ as well: the predator and the prey. " - David Thewlis " Everybody knows someone like that: wonderful, attractive people full of passion and ideals. You envy them, but you know there’s a dark side, which is brutal and cruel and violent. That dark side informs what’s wonderful about them, and the passion and rage inform the darkness; they’re inseparable. " - David Thewlis " I don’t think Alfonso was a big expert on Potter either.
