Amelie<\/a>\u201d on the night of Meredith\u2019s murder. Using magical realism was another way to differentiate \u201cTwisted Tale\u201d from true-crime stories that begin with the murder.<\/p>\n\u201cWe always wanted to start with the humanity,\u201d Steinberg says. \u201cThe homage to \u2018Amelie\u2019 was a great way to have the audience be introduced to Amanda, the person, before she became defined in the public imagination as the warped version.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTwisted Tale\u201d shows the many ways the Italian police zeroed in on Knox as a suspect, often due to cultural misunderstandings. A text message Knox sent her boss \u2014 \u201cSee you later\u201d \u2014 was interpreted as a plan to meet up rather than as the colloquial signoff Knox intended.<\/p>\n
\u201cTwisted Tale\u201d filmed in Vancouver, B.C., (playing Seattle) and Italy with interiors shot on a stage in Budapest, Hungary. Production designers created what Knox calls an apartment \u201cshockingly similar\u201d to the one she shared with her roommates when the murder occurred.<\/p>\n
\u201cWalking in, it was, actually, oddly therapeutic,\u201d Knox says of the apartment set. \u201cI was like, \u2018Oh my God, those are my socks that are hanging up to dry.\u2019 These are all the things that I never got back. And I had this strange impulse to want to gather my things and take them home with me. The prop department was really kind: They wrapped a few things up for me and sent them home, because I never got my things back.\u201d<\/p>\n
Unlike many true-crime series, \u201cTwisted Tale\u201d spends a lot of time with characters beyond Knox, telling episodes from the point of view of the prosecutor, Giuliano Mignini (Francesco Acquaroli), and Knox\u2019s boyfriend at the time, Raffaele Sollecito (Giuseppe De Domenico).<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of the things that I’ve really grieved over the course of these many years was how this terrible tragedy came to define so many people’s lives in a really limiting way, including Meredith,\u201d Knox says. \u201cMeredith was a real person, who had her whole life ahead of her, and then she became a blip, a footnote in a tabloid scandal story about me. That’s horrible.<\/p>\n
\u201cOr take Raffaele: One of the things that we explore in this series is it\u2019s not a love story (between Knox and Sollecito), it’s a love lost story,\u201d Knox continues. \u201cEven the police and the prosecutors who suddenly are defined and diminished in this story, this story is seeking to raise people up and honor people in ways that this story has always diminished them.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
