About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a stylish, biting period drama about manipulation, desire, and social games, with plenty of twists and sharp exchanges; Not for you if you dislike morally bleak stories or dense dialogue like in The Age of Innocence.

Pros: wickedly entertaining intrigue; sharp, witty dialogue; lavish costumes and settings | Cons: cruel, unsettling themes; talky, slow stretches; one weak performance
