The True Story Behind Netflix’s New Thriller Series “ The Nurse”
A new biographical film about a psychopathic nurse who kills patients has been added to Netflix and is rapidly climbing the streaming platform’s top 10 TV shows. The Danish suspenseful series, The Nurse, tells the gripping tale of a “angel of death” who works at a Danish hospital. Suspicion arises when seemingly healthy patients start dying from unrelated heart attacks.
Based on Kristian Corfixen’s book, The Nurse: The True Story Behind One Of Scandinavia’s Most Notorious Criminal Trials, the show stars Fanny Louise Bernth as Pernille Kurzmann, a recent nursing school graduate working her first job. The story is narrated from her perspective as she quickly befriends Christina Aistrup Hansen (Josephine Park), a seasoned ER nurse at Nykobing Falster Hospital. The series is reminiscent of the 2022 Netflix movie, The Good Nurse, starring Jessica Chastain and Eddie Redmayne, but condensed into four episodes running less than an hour, wasting no time in delving into the character and the chilling true events that transpired from 2012–2015.
