.shaneryanhere reviews Apple TV+'s HighDesert, which is ridiculous, delightful, and a showcase for Patricia Arquette
’ Jay Roach, there is a rhythm to all this, and to praise the show is to praise the inner narrative harmony of the unharmonious whole.
In the supporting roles, it’s the men who stand out as particularly strong foils, as though Peggy needs masculine counterparts to bring out the full range of her psychological palette. Rupert Friend is hysterical as “Guru Bob,” whose bullshit falls apart in Peggy’s incisive gaze, Matt Dillon makes an ideal dissolute husband/jailbird, and Brad Garrett, though underused, shines in the role of the downtrodden PI trying to take Peggy under his wing but is swept away in her current instead.
Be warned: If you watch this show, and like it, you’re going to have a hell of a time explaining what you see in it to others. The best thing you can say is that Patricia Arquette is a hustler’s hustler, for whom the confusion of life is like a tidal wave she’s forced to ride, and the only thing scarier than being at the top of that wave’s crest is not taking the ride at all.
Peggy is your consummate weirdo, and Arquette nails the vibes. To watch her try to pull one over on a world that rewards sensibility is extraordinarily fun, and the rest of the show keeps pace one perfect half-step behind the viewer. This is a desert world of hidden energies and dark influences, and once you settle in for the ride, you find that you don’t just root for Peggy… you need her.
