The show imagines what it would be like if the axis countries had won World War II, and America was divided between Germany and Japan. The show\'s heroes struggle against totalitarianism. The new season of \"The Man In The High Castle\" begins with a horrifying sight. A model student wearing a Brownshirts uniform with a swastika armband stands in a high school named for Fritz Julius Kuhn, the leader of the German American Bund, a pro-Nazi organization in the 1930s. The student leads his classmates in a chilling version of the Pledge of Allegiance. But the real substance of \"The Man In The High Castle\" doesn\'t come from its apocalyptic setting. In its second season, the show shines brightest when it poses a simple question - what do you do when confronted with tyranny and totalitarianism? If you\'re American, do you join a resistance that allows innocents to be slaughtered by the occupiers?The rebels believe the killing of civilians will pressure Americans working with the occupiers, known as pons, into destroying each other. But that strategy sparks a fight between the resistance leader and a new recruit to the cause named Frank.
The Characters
Joe Blake (Luke Kleintank): A Manhattan truck driver who takes on a mission for the Resistance to make a delivery to Canon City in the Neutral Zone. His character is the source of more than a few of the series’ many plot twists.
Juliana Crain (Alexa Davalos): A San Francisco martial arts expert living in peace with the Japanese occupation, until a sudden tragedy brought on by the Japanese secret police leads her to discover newsreel films that the Resistance wanted delivered to the titular “Man in the High Castle” in Canon City.
Frank Frink (Rupert Evans): Juliana’s boyfriend and a machine shop worker. At the start of the series, he is trying to use his skills as an artist to lucrative ends, but is unwillingly drawn into a world of intrigue when the authorities come looking for Juliana.
Nobusuke Tagomi (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa): He is the Trade Minister for the Pacific States. Deeply involved in meditation and the I Ching, his unorthodox methods of protecting the Empire and efforts to be a good man are interesting plot points in the series.
John Smith (Rufus Sewell): American SS Obergruppenführer
Chief Inspector Kido (Joel de la Fuente): He is the ruthless head of the Kempeitai in San Francisco.
Rudolf Wegener (Carsten Norgaard): Under the pseudonym “Mr. Baynes,” Swedish industrialist, SS Colonel Wegener is on an important mission to get an audience with the Japanese Science Minister through Trade Minister Tagomi.
The Man in the High Castle Season 2 greatly benefits from an almost total detachment from the source material. As with Game of Thrones season 6, this TV show gets more interesting when it starts to carve its own path. The standout narrative here - and perhaps the only one with any genuine entertainment value - is that of Smith struggling to protect his family and his adopted country against enemies within and without. His character is complex, substantial, and wonderfully realised by Sewell. On balance, I’d say that anyone who waded through the first season should give this follow-up a go, purely to see the Smith narrative develop and blossom over the course of the ten episode run. If you’re new to The Man in the High Castle? Well, you really need to experience season 1 to understand season 2.
