THE PERFORMER | Norman Reedus

THE SHOW | AMC’s The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon

THE EPISODE | “Deux Amours” (Oct. 8, 2023)

THE PERFORMANCE | We owe the star of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon an apology. Reedus, who spent 11 seasons on the mothership before being given his own spinoff, is so consistent — and consistently compelling — that over the years, we have come to take for granted the subtlety with which he blends the gruffness and vulnerability that make his character so beloved. That’s on us.

This week, however, we hope to right our wrong, at least a little bit, by properly appreciating the actor’s performance in his series’ penultimate Season 1 episode. As so often is the case, he allowed Daryl’s sensitive side to peek through his tough-guy facade. There was a softness to Reedus’ eyes as his alter ego observed ward Laurent and worried that Sister Isabelle had raised him to be weak. That same tenderness was on display in Daryl’s dealings with the boy. Reedus kept his tone of voice matter-of-fact but in a gentle way that invited acceptance rather than ignited upset.

But the moment in which Reedus shined the brightest was the one in which Daryl discovered that Laurent had set adrift their getaway boat. First, our embattled protagonist raged at the child, with Reedus throwing words like they were punches. Then, when Laurent explained that he had only done what he had for fear of losing his protector, Daryl’s anger dissipated in spectacular fashion, his portrayer’s lip trembling from the sudden transition from fury to understanding.

It was, as they would put it in Daryl’s home away from home, c’est magnifique. (See for yourself in the video at the top of this post.)

11 Daryl and Isabelle, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon
...
Maybe it’s for the best that the fifth Walking Dead spinoff didn’t capitalize on the chemistry that we all some of us saw developing between young Laurent’s de-facto parent figures. Viewers didn’t seem to agree that Norman Reedus and Clémence Poésy’s characters felt more for one another than mere friendship.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon (Season 1, Episode 2) 
...
We knew what was coming, of course, when the Walking Dead spinoff flashed back to the night that deceased Parisians began reanimating. But what we couldn’t have imagined was just how magnifique the sequence would be, especially as played from the viewpoint of the luminous Clémence Poésy’s Isabelle. — C.M.
