Netflix has some of the worst casting...


...in this movie and a lot of their movies/series. Hillary Swank is not believable and is incredibly annoying. I would still be watching the series if she wasn't so annoying, but I didn't quite make it to the end of the first episode.

I quite like Hilary Swank, but I think she is an actress who should be in movies rather than on TV. I'm probably going to finish the show, but I'm a little daunted by the idea of watching Hilary Swank be morose for ten hours. I think she almost has too much screen presence for a tv series.

I like Hilary too but it seems she's choosing too many domestic dramas instead of roles that take you out of our expectations. She was great in P.S I love you and I fucking hate RomComs but her story and her portrayal made the movie for me, despite Gerry's shit Irish accent (can't believe a Scotsman would have any issue pulling that off).

Agree.

Hmmm. I'm enjoying it.

She was really good in 'Mother' on Netflix I think.

reply

Yes she was great in I Am Mother (2019).
