Çalikusu

I loved this show, I just happened to have seen it but I loved the whole thing. Only bad thing I could say was the ending. It was odd. Just left me confused. I'm thinking she showed up and hoping she showed up. But I wish it had a better ending starting from where she left her wedding. Other then that I was hooked.

I gave my rating an 8 only because of how it ended. I really loved the show. I only hope they give us another season to end it for real, not leave it to our imaginations.

I have to say This is my first Turkish movie other than the ones directed by Ferzan Ozpetek. The sound of the language is beautiful. Many times I thought of Jeremy iron in " Brideshead revisited."It is beautifully written. Extremely well crafted story telling. The acting is excellent!!! I believe it is a masterpiece that should definitely get international recognition. The editing is seamless , not only the two main characters shine but they have an excellent talented supporting cast. It gives a beautiful insight to Turkish culture at the beginning of last century while modernity is starting to dawn on them. I could not stop watching it ! Great job Netflix on adding it your library!!!

i don't know if i l have this opinion because of I'm actually Turkish but i love this show. i really love this two: burak and fahriye they are great couple and have this amazing energy when they are together. this show represent our culture back those ottoman empire's day. deride is stubborn innocent, hard on the outside but soft in the inside kind of girl and kamran (not kamuran like it misspelled in here) is a kind, passionate boy who, at the beginning, was with neriman but when time passes by he get to know about deride and loves what he learns. actors and actresses in this show are very talented. i think burak and fahriye are stunning couple who looks good together and i love that fahriye can cry without a movement in her face and when burak smile his eyes shine with joy. this is one of my favourite shows and it certainly is my favorite Turkish TV series. you should watch it if you can cause it's amazing

Calikusu (Love Bird) is a dramatic serial showing the growth of love between two cousins in Turkey during the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of the last century. The sets and costumes are richly detailed and so beautiful. I adore the music and THANK YOU to the translators and the casting. The story is set in the wealthy home of Feride's aunt and uncle. Young Feride is tragically orphaned as a young girl and is brought up by her loving aunt and uncle where she slowly falls in love with her attractive, kind, and humorous cousin. Their relationship grows with the tumultuous family history. I have enjoyed the journey, the false identities, the youthful games, the colorful parties, the family squabbles. LOVED IT!
