Frammenti di lei

Toni Collette plays Laura Oliver, a woman with secrets, which are exposed during a life and death situation beyond her control.

This 90 minute story has been stretched over 8 episodes, requiring long pauses, unnecessary diversions and constant illogical behaviour by the main characters. As others have written, the worst character is the daughter (played by Heathcote) who whines a lot and seems to have a permanent state of confusion etched upon her face. Other characters are thinly written; the dialogue is poor and the pacing is glacial. The whole thing is just disappointing.

As a side note, this is another example of a Netflix production where the shooting location (Sydney, Australia) looks nothing like the setting of the story (Georgia, USA). Everything from the streetscapes, the flora, the lighting - all is wrong and it's distracting. Many shows are shot in different locations than the story's setting, but surely there needs to be a mild resemblance to the actual.

....the daughter is annoying as fudge. I mean why don't you go around with a red flashing light on your head and a sign on your back which says 'I am the girl you're looking for' that would be less conspicuous than how she's moving around.

For the most part it isn't bad.... I think. I mean the daughter character annoyed me so much that I think the rest was okay.

I love Toni in almost everything but what the heck was this? It was literally a show on what not to do The daughter was the most unintelligent, bumbling idiot that I couldn't keep watching this because of her chsarqcter. Was this writing intended to make fun of a millennial and portray them as morons? If so, then it succeeded!

Thank goodness, I had insomnia. The plot is frustrating, andvthe storyline does get lazy and lethargic. Every character is flawed so after a few episodes you stop rooting for anyone and just watch. If you got the time and a few hours to kill.......it is okay! Not memorable but it is very watchable.

Far too long for the content which makes it drag in places. I found the hopping around in time periods very frustrating and rather confusing which would be even worse if not watched in a pretty short timeframe ( in my case over 2 days).

Had it not been for Toni Colette I wouldn't have watched it to start with. But even though she's such a powerful actress it was still rather a disappointment but by no means as bad as the numerous 1 and 2 score ratings that some have given it imo.
