Groucho Marx Is Annoying
29 January 2024
Good show, flows well, makes you anticipate where the fashion business while climb next, but they make too much out of the "stud" character who resembles Groucho Marx had he a baby with Mario from Donkey Kong, he's horrible, he's moody and whiny, and just gets in the way of the story the way he probably got in the way of Halston's life, which was obviously more fulfilling than most of this series makes it out to be...

Underlining the main problem here, that while it's interesting to show a famous creative person... Halston in this case... going on a downward spiral... it needs to be balanced by more positive things, that he accomplished, and yet everything he does right here seems to be met with something he screws up, and it's doubtful his life was this way... given that he died with 100M dollars in the bank.
