As Flores Perdidas de Alice Hart

We just 'binged' the first three episodes and honestly can't wait for next week's instalment. Great story with lots of interesting twists. Our fingers are crossed that the same high standard is maintained right through the 7 episodes. Very impressive so far.

Alyla Browne does a magnificent job of playing the part of a young Alice Hart. A great talent at such a young age. I'm certain we will see a lot more of her into the future.

The senior actors set a standard that would make any director proud and collectively raise the bar for all Aussie productions into the future.

The scenery is beautiful and the cinematography is as good as it gets.

Well done everyone, you have a lot to be proud of.

Despite oddly choppy accents and some slower moments than a slow-burning story needs, this is a wonder. It is a story that should be seen and heard. If you haven't know violence, it is crucial; if you have, it is utterly respectful, familiar, perhaps healing.

What the slow burning plot does well is the inching towards reveals and epiphanies that happen as patiently crafted as the scenes surrounding them. No tricks of twists, no Hollywood quick turns.

The journey all these characters take, especially Alice, happens as life happens. One moment at a time.

Characters are complex and dynamic in rare realness; you'll find no heroes where it seems you will and no pure villains.

Flowers grow slowly from seed yet bloom quickly, like this beautiful piece of acting, courage, and community.

The scenery is NOT dark and dim. Someone's TV settings need adjusting. No, this was never meant to be a plot driven "action" movie so if that's want you want, skip watching it. Otherwise if a mystery down under interests you, watch this series. It's beautifully filmed. The acting is top notch. Most people who aren't Aussies won't notice Sigourney's wavering accent.

I will admit that episodes 1-3 out the 4 available at the moment were more interesting. The actress who plays young Alice is appealing and believable. Kudos to Alyla! I am unable, however to warm to the older Alice at this point and I hope that changes. All the flower designs and flowers themselves are beautiful. As wells as the beach scenes.

This series has me crying like a baby for almost every episode, but honestly, it's a really good cry. So beautifully acted and the cinematography is stunning.

Life is messy. People are messy and flawed and this series hits on life and people in a way that not many can. Yes it does center around some things that some people don't want to acknowledge but, this is a part of many peoples lives.

If anyone has ever experienced abuse before, especially as a child you will find a little bit of your story in this series. I don't find it to be bad or "triggering" though. It's done so realistically & beautifully that it really kind of reaches out to that inner child inside of you and really just makes you feel a kinship with the characters. At least it does for me. I absolutely love this series.

It's tragic and beautiful at the same time, a lot like life is.

The strength is the acting of Sigourney Weaver as June, the head of Thornfield. Her transformation from Episode 1 to Episode 7 is truly amazing. She runs Thornfield, and it is a haven for abused women, yet misunderstood by the locals. It is a flower heaven, and in it the flowers tell a story. They are one with nature. Clem is June's son, and he married Agnes, and Alice is their daughter. After a fire, Alice comes to live at Thornfield. But June knows some terrible secrets, yet keeps them from Alice which does not serve either of them well. Alice leaves and cuts off all contact. Yet, the loss of Alice leaves a hole in the heart of June, and her stubbornness eats away at her. Episode 7 is very powerful, and ties a lot of loose ends and some of those loose ends make some of what happened earlier even more potent. Alice thinks she has found happiness far away, but that is only a mirage and she finds out how powerless she really is. There is a lot of complexity in the whole series, and in many ways that is good, as those problems may be solved in one TV episode, but in real life rarely wrapped up neatly. And both the flowers at Thornfield and the scenery throughout the episodes are truly wonderful.
