Julia Roberts’ Best TV Performance Is in This Prime Video Thriller

The Big Picture People forget things all the time, but Heidi Bergman can’t remember a major part of her life, and the reason why is the main mystery in Season 1 of Homecoming. Despite the name, this isn’t part of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man trilogy or the concert doc for Beyoncé. It’s Sam Esmail's Prime Video thriller series where Julia Roberts plays two versions of a character named Heidi in different timelines.

Julia Roberts’ Heidi Bergman Can’t Be Trusted Julia Roberts’ performance in the 2018 timeline is similar to the heroines of her career: someone a viewer can root for. She’s under tremendous pressure from Colin, who demands she gather data on the soldiers and not to form relationships. While Heidi is overwhelmed by her duties, she is tenacious about handling the stress. After all, she doesn’t know how to have a life outside of work.

Julia Roberts Nails Two Sides of the Same Character One of the best parts of the series is the soundtrack, plucked from the films Esmail was influenced by. In Episode 1, the first few minutes have sweeping, fluid camera work that introduces Heidi’s office at the Homecoming facility. The theme of Dressed to Kill plays and the lush and dream-like score by Pino Donaggio sets up a picturesque first meeting between Heidi and Walter.

'Homecoming's Season 1 Finale Is Chilling Close A stylized element of the show is the different aspect ratios, which represent how Robert’s character is restricted from the truth. The 2018 timeline is seen in widescreen, while all the scenes in 2022 are confined to a boxed 1:1 aspect ratio. By the Season 1 finale, Heidi unlocks her memories in 2022, and the boxed aspect ratio breaks free by switching to widescreen.
