Isabel: The Intimate Story of Isabel Allende

Being from Mexico I had known of Isabel Allende only by name. Her story is moving and touching, this series is underrated and should be watched by any one who loves a good intimate story, a drama well acted and a music that is just absolutely gorgeous. Watch it now! Tissues might be needed for last episode 😢

I don't see how this series doesn't receive serious consideration for an Emmy, it's just superb start to finish. The actress playing Isabel is stunning in the role, she's a remarkable actress and delivers a powerful portrayal of a complex woman, with a complex marriage, and a brave heart.

Don't hesitate to watch this particularly if you're a student of Latin American politics - or a lover of her writing.
