The Killing - Interview with Mireille Enos

The Killing is heading to Blu-Ray & DVD in the UK later this month so for anyone who hasn't seen the series yet can you tell me a little bit about it.
The series focus on the murder of a seventeen year old girl and there are three storylines that are woven together; her family, of course, and their devastation, the story of the lead detective who I play and then the third storyline is a local political who is running for mayor and his campaign is dragged into the chaos of the investigation.

You take on the role of Sarah Linden in the series so what was it about the character and the script that drew you to the project?
The writing of the pilot was incredibly filmic and the pacing of it was slower than anything that I had ever read for television.
And Veena (Sud) is incredibly brave in the way that she allows the story to be told in silences - sometimes I think the trap that television writing falls into is they don't trust the audience to be intelligent and so they right it all down.
And, to me, that is not the way that we speak to one another and Veena doesn't do that she allows the audience to come to their own conclusions and to follow the story through people's thoughts.
