Thank youuuu! Don't the stoic facial expressions and monotone voice just make so much more sense? In former Soviet Union, we are unmoved. Emotion? For what! Life is a cold train station; you wait, you endure. And then you layer that with the Connecticut of it all—the repression, the quiet superiority, the BLAZERS—and suddenly everything clicks.
I watched this last night, inspired by post-election feminist rage. Your recap perfectly captures the battle all women (especially ambitious women) face. Thank you for writing!
Such an insightful review! I learned something new - didn’t know Martha had Polish roots. Also love the idea you suggested for an alternate ending.

Another masterpiece! Look forward to watching the documentary even though I now know the ending 😅👏🙏♥️
