'Dirty John': While Connie Britton may have your sympathy, Eric Bana deserves your admiration

There's a high chance we will never be able to look at Eric Bana the same way again, thanks to just how good he is playing John Meehan in 'Dirty John'
PUBLISHED DEC 26, 2018

Bravo's new cautionary tale of falling in love with a conman is nothing short of terrifying. 'Dirty John' not only plays with every fear you have about online dating, but it also shows you just how manipulative and abusive relationships can be. Connie Britton as Debra Newell, the protagonist of this deceitful tale, is beyond amazing — every time she gives into his lies hoping its love, your heart goes out to her. However, while it is only natural to feel sorry for her, don't let that distract you from Eric Bana's impeccable portrayal of the villainous John Meehan.
