Based on a true story, this is a 9-episode *rolls eyes* long show about the "convicted con artist and fraudster" Anna Delvey/Sorokin. I'm late to this show so i'll skip the plot deets, you might have already watched this show.
If you haven't yet, I found the story to be interesting. It amazes me that someone was able to pull this off. Well shot, great production quality, editing and writing - me likey. Great acting, the show also makes you care for the other characters.
But the show was TOO long for me, this could have been a movie or a 4-ep show. Netflix is getting greedier by the day and dragging on shows and docs for longer than they have to be just so that you can stay on Netflix for longer.
That accent - jarring. I see the idea behind going for an accent that is neither Russian/German nor from NY/NJ. Julia Garner apparently came up with it. I see the reasoning behind it, just that it was distracting.
If you can sit through these two issues, you'll enjoy the show and may even be mindblown.
