Kurt Seyit ve Sura

No spoilers. Only a promise. Others can praise all other aspects of this show. But to me, what makes this show transcend...is the ending. It is the bravest thing I have ever seen in a TV series.

There are not too many epic romance series in the world. From what few exist, the trajectory is obvious to all. This is not necessarily a bad thing. We are meant to savour the journey, like an old wine.

You can do all of that on the journey of this series. But in one last episode, you can also consider something poignant, unexpected, and perhaps beautiful. Again, I said no spoilers. Like Kurt Seyit, I will keep my word...as best as this world & fate allow.

I don't know when I have enjoyed a series so much. The story had me researching the war during 1917 and the details surrounding that war. There were a number of different characters in the story who all added great variety and elements of emotion. I never get tired of films like this one. It amazes me how rich history is with stories like these of people who lived thru the horrors of war and tyranny. Stories of their struggles, victories and how they just survived it all. So much detail went into the story that helped you really see each character and their lives. I wasn't disappointed with any part of the series and watched every part of it to the end. Sorry to actually get to the end. Could have gone on...where is Season 2?

there's more to cinema than Hollywood! what's missing normally, but not in this series: emotion. aesthetics. history. sheer reality. humanity. life.

most films, esp. western, miss a soul and/or meaning. most Hollywood films are cold, violent or shallow fantasies. even if Hollywood does romance, there's somehow aggression involved. rarely real stories. modern western films tend to not be alive!

thank goodness for Netflix, or America would be void of foreign films, which are so damn necessary as alternative to shallow Hollywood, not to mention there's a whole big beautiful interesting exceptional worthy world out there that Americans don't see otherwise. IMDb also needs to get its act together and be more detailed/professional on foreign productions, not focus so much on Hollywood.

this series has 46 episodes in 1 season! ; ) one truly gets involved in the characters, mood. it's one of those series that is hard to get out of. it's almost hard to keep watching, not because it's un-watchable, to the contrary! ; ), but because one dreads what comes next: no series will match its depth/emotion/beauty...

IMDb has several errors in the cast, incl. not naming a main character, Pedro, and putting him way down the list (Birkan Sokullu). there's other omissions/mistakes too. it's incomplete information.

plus IMDb mentions S2 but without any details. will there be a 2nd season?! hope so. but unlikely. so why tease us? ; )

where can one upload images and comment (not just review) on IMDb?

I wholeheartedly appreciated this series. What a wonderful, refreshing contrast to Hollywood. It's a love story, but so much more, its a story about war, deep family connections, deception, oppression, unrequited love, also the deep emotional attachment to another person but how the gears can misaligned and the relationship stops working no matter how hard you try. It was brutally realistic and I am emotionally drained after watching the whole series in a week. I was watching it on my phone during breaks at work and anytime I had a few min. The characters were so perfectly cast and beautiful I was hooked in the first episode. It was great that the villain was as handsome as the rest of the cast. As painful as the ending was it couldn't go any other way. That's life. This was my 3rd Turkish series and I love the work they do. No graphic sex scenes not a lot of violence, just very well done. Can we have more please?

overall, the acting the story was ruthlessly realistic and strong, just like the main actor (Seyit). The series played with emotions from happy to sad to extremely shocked it just is truly amazing! It's very rare when a woman loves and appreciates another woman character when she loves the male main character a lot but she is so strong and shows how strong a woman's love it, and how medal through all the hard times with hope and trust.the ending was more realistic than i would have liked it to be. there are also side loves stories that you will love too. Moreover, it portrays what jealousy wit money and connections can do and how it can control someone's life and ruin it. The evil guy (-----) is truly dirty to the core. With this series expect the unexpected!!

Anyways, you will enjoy it, love, and cry a lot (happy and sad tears) !
