Lidia fait sa loi

I'm usually not impressed with costuming in a show, but the hats and clothing they have Matilda wearing is unbelievably beautiful. The stories are pretty simple and dialogue dubbed, but overall it is a well produced show. Very cool music that doesn't fit the era, but helps the show be more current. Also impressed with Matilda's lead in such a feisty role fighting to be the first female attorney in Italy. Excellent job on her part and hopefully producers will continue the series and see the role fulfill the dream. Also although dubbed in English and of course recognizable, the voiceovers are pretty good.

Honestly, I am three episodes in and I already applaud the brilliant work done on this series. I absolutely adore the cinematography, the music, the cast, and the atmosphere of the late 1800s created here. The costume are on so on point that I cannot miss a chance to praise how beautiful they are. I should also note that they could not have chosen a better actress for the lead role. I think that she is not only stunning, but she also got incredible acting chops. As for the other two lead actors, they play their respective roles to perfection. One can only root for them as they all take part in investigating the multiple cases being presented. It is a show that reminds me a lot of "A Private Affair" with Aura Garrido and Jean Reno. The only difference is that instead of being serialized, this is a procedural. This format may not be suitable for everyone, but once you get the hang of it, these very inspired stories and cases are an absolute blast to watch for fans of this genre. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys investigation series accompanied by a great cast, and impecable writing.

Enjoyable stories although reasonably simple in design (which makes it easy to follow and watch), good acting, stylish locations, excellent lighting, rich and colourful quality costumes, and beautiful lead actress. Dubbing in English is also quite good.

I was hooked from the 1st episode and enjoyed the scenario of a woman battling against the male prejudice in the legal profession within a period setting. All the men underestimate her and are challenged by her education and ideas. As a man myself I think it is great to watch her succeeding and overcoming the challenges. I do hope that they decide to make more series going forwards.

I really liked this brief 1st season, finding the production values, cinematography and acting to be first rate all around. I loved the character of Lidia Poet and her portrayal by. Matilda De Angelis. I was constantly charmed by her, finding her strong but vulnerable as well.

This is obviously a jazzed up version of the real life of Lidia Poet, but it is most entertaining. It is quite lush and not for the realistic reenactment crowd. The soundtrack is quite varied, from classical to new agey to downright punkish.

My main objection to this series is that each episode (40-45 mins.) is a complete case in itself. Because of this, the crimes are solved rather quickly and, it appears, very unrealistically. This would have been a much better series if the cases went over 2 episodes, as they do in Vienna Blood.

The show maybe inspired by a true story but don't go looking for a factual period piece. Instead, its an enjoyable show about a woman who is intelligent, knows what she wants, and refuses to be put in a box by anyone.

Along with her strong moments of proving herself on the show its also endearing to watch her navigate in a man's world that constantly tries to control her and often fails.

I like the lead actress - she brings the right amount of spunk and softness to her role. This is a light show with interesting cases but nothing too intense.

Overall its a fun watch and definitely worth another season.
