Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
The Handmaid's Tale (miniseries).
Petty bad. I went in predisposed to like it if for no other reason after Pence packs the Court we'll be living in it, but a combination of weak acting and hamfisted direction turns this into a 15-year old's book report on the novel. Plodding, pedantic, obvious and amateurish. Hard to go wrong with that material, but they did. D.
