These are the 12 best acting performances on BlackMirror
Photo: Vulture and Netflix Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror has become a phenomenon largely due to its clever storytelling and insidious ability to tap into our fear of technology. Enhanced virtual reality, implanted consciousnesses, social networks run amok — these visions may exist in a distant future, but they exploit modern concerns and relatable human emotions.
12. Jon Hamm in “White Christmas” Photo: Netflix The 2014 Christmas special between seasons two and three was the first time Brooker & Co. attempted a triptych style of storytelling, offering a trio of stories within one long episode.
9. Andrea Riseborough in “Crocodile” Photo: Netflix Director John Hillcoat helmed this fourth-season story of a woman whose crimes catch up with her via a device that can access people’s memories. Being able to witness someone else’s POV and/or memories has been a recurring theme in Black Mirror, but this episode contains one of its darkest iterations.
6. Wyatt Russell in “Playtest” Photo: Netflix Black Mirror’s best performances are able to access a sense of reality within fantastical conceits. We won’t buy Brooker’s out-there premises if we don’t believe the fear, anger, passion, etc. of the characters plunged into his nightmares. There may be no better example of this than “Playtest,” an episode that simply comes apart at the seams if we don’t find the abject terror of its protagonist believable.
