You can feel the awareness emanating from the mother when they finally meet their new neighbors.
“La Maison du Bon Reve” shows their day to day living, her mother helping her do various tasks, like keeping her head bald, and tubing food into her stomach there’s no exposition to explain what range of issues Gypsy has, and that’s the point.
You cannot help but feel a sense of endearment towards her. She partakes in conversations in such an overly confident and naive manner. I’m sure it was intentional and based on real-life interpretations, but Gypsy has a very vulnerable and sweet-sounding voice that would make butter melt. As a journalist interviews Gypsy and DeDee, it’s noticeable that the mother wants to answer all the questions, prompting the interviewer to request that Gypsy has the opportunity to have a voice. Due to Gypsy’s range of medical issues, the media have taken an interest in her, and news outlets are following them due to the fact they’ve been in trouble in previous neighborhoods. Their house was provided by a scheme called Habitat, which helps construct housing based on special needs. The rest of Episode 1 brings us back to when the pair moved into the neighborhood. The opening scene is set in 2015, where the Blanchard household is empty, and the police have been alerted that the pair have been missing. Episode 1, “La Maison du Bon Reve”, offers this warm-looking suburban American neighborhood where Gypsy Blanchard ( Joey King) and her mother Dee Dee Blanchard ( Patricia Arquette) live.
At the end credits, the series warns us that some details may be not entirely accurate, but this is a true crime story, and reading the facts of the real case, it’s horrifying. Based on Hulu’s promotional materials, Season 1 of The Act is based on real events.
