Netflix's Mark Ruffalo miniseries has plenty of artistry, but the sprawling narrative presents a challenge for this adaptation of the Pulitzer-winning novel
Some great books simply aren’t suited to adaptation, though that’s never stopped Hollywood from trying. Judging the book by its cover, and its massive popularity, the appeal of bringing something like Anthony Doerr’s All The Light We Cannot See to the screen is obvious. The Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, set in France and Germany during World War II, is rich with fascinating characters and picturesque locations.
This is Werner Pfennig, played by Louis Hofmann, best known to Netflix viewers as Jonas in the twisty German time-travel series Dark. He’s our second protagonist, and his reasons for keeping the signal a secret are doled out gradually through flashbacks to his youth in an orphanage, where he grew up with his sister Jutta , until his genius for fixing radios caught the attention of the Third Reich.
