Miriam Margolyes in Miriam Margolyes: Almost Australian (2020)

Review by martimusross

Miriam Margolyes: Almost Australian

5/10

Not Miriam's Finest Hour But Watchable

Almost Australian

Miriam does a really good job but the whole thing does seem overly contrived. Seeming hellbent on knocking down the country that has made such strides forward in recent years.

The outdated stereotyping of Australian men, the plight of aboriginals and dwelling on the hard cases and the scoffing at a wholesome women's club I found distasteful.

We all know lovies should never stray into politics because their very professions require them to adopt a victim mentality to be effected actors. Usually they are all left of Marx without the insight that the capitalist market produces the income for the welfare state and they work outside any market, and communism is a busted flush.

Miriam needs to stick to observational comedy and not investigative journalism.

This was certainly not her finest hour but I still enjoyed it.
