Little Fires Everywhere (2020)
Absolutely the best finale
I see I am not the only person who noticed Kerry Washington seemingly constant grimace. But as I came to know the character I noticed it less and less. I liked her as Mia and honestly of the two mothers had I a choice I would have chosen her over Elena. At any rate she didn't spoil the series for me. I liked her character.
Now Elena. Ugh. Reese Witherspoon is a force of nature when it comes to acting. She is wonderful. I truly abhorred her character well before the end. Lol. What a poisonous woman she was. I had no sympathy for her at all.
I haven't read the book so I have no point of comparison there. The story reminded me somewhat of Little Big Lies which I have read and loved.
The final episode was a completely satisfying hour for me. It doesn't get any better than that. Honestly I think I cheered it on.
Well worth watching!
