I didn’t like her in the last version of Austen’s Emma, but she is a great Beth Harmon.

The trailer is amazing – the theme is one I often read about and which again and again proves to me that too much ‘being competitive’ can only lead to unhappiness.
Sometimes I regret not having TV, but then I think that in any case, I’d rather make music, or read, or have fun and discussions with friends. And that’s fine by me. But this is certainly one of the flicks I’d watch.

We are up to the 5th episode, David. We are hooked! It is fantastic acting from all cast. Can’t say enough. And it looks like there will be a second series… Hope so!

Carolyn, you mean it isn’t one movie you can watch from A-Z? To get ppl hooked to their TV?
And if you haven’t time, or don’t want to watch NOW, can you watch it for’ever’ or only for a certain period of time?
Sorry Dave, Ignoramus is here….

Judging just from the trailer, I’m glad I’m not a genius if it comes with all those head problems. Looks like a very interesting movie though.
