Review of Maryland

Maryland (2023)
7/10
Unlike many, I enjoyed it.

I liked this drama about two estranged sisters slowly learning about their mother's life whilst coming to a greater understanding about each other.

I found the storyline believable. Both female leads did a good job in their roles as we learn of their relationship with each other, their families & their mother. I even shed some tears along the way.

Eve Best was great in her role. At first I thought she was Gemma Redgrave - they have similar features. Then I realised my mistake. She was in Nurse Jackie.

I am puzzled about the choice to cast Stockard Channing in this series. I could see many British actresses more suited to the role. Actresses with more expressive facial features (that wouldn't be hard) & untouched by plastic surgery, Botox or fillers - whichever path Stockard went down. Her face does not look natural. Such a shame.
