Der Club der singenden Metzger (2019)
Not even a shadow of the book by Louise Erdrich
13 October 2023
We eagerly started this series but were sadly disappointed by the shallow plot. The acting was quite good, but Erdrich's plot was simply mangled. Major characters were actually deleted. Important events were altered or omitted entirely. The series should have been increased to at least six episodes. The result would have been so much better. This seems to be the direction PBS is taking these days, where the costumes and hunky guys outweigh deeper matters. Oh for the days when we were offered programs with more weight than a dandelion seed! That is so sad. The book really deserved to be done properly.
