Recensione in evidenza
After watching Belgravia, I was intrigued by Ella Purnell. I thought her performance was the best part of the very British drama Belgravia, and I was curious to see what else she had done.
Ella's British accent was gone as she entered the big city alone and determined to experience everything.
I did enjoy Ella Purnell's performance, but the show struggled in season 2 in particular. It seemed like the show knew it was going to be cancelled and tried to wrap up storylines too quickly at the end of the season.
The Good: I enjoyed hanging out with the staff and getting to know each character. I feel like Simone, Sasha, Ari, and Heather are all part of my life now. Ella had great chemistry with Caitlin FitzGerald who played Simone. I found their relationship the most intriguing, and I would have liked to have seen them explore this on a physical level as well.
The Bad: I had a love with the restaurant in season 1 along with Tess. The restaurant itself loses the feeling that Tess talks about during her job interview in season 1. Perhaps it's intentional to show that Tess is seeing the reality of the restaurant the longer she works there. Howard is getting creepier, the flowers that Tess loved so much in season 1 are gone, shocking horrid scenes in episode 1 season 2 replace the beautiful atmosphere of the restaurant that we grew to love in season 1.
There's only so many nights as a viewer I can hang out at "Home Bar".
The showrunner's never fully explore Tess' family life before she gets to NYC. They do bring up issues in season 2 that allow Tess to reveal more about her past. But it really only touched the surface. Tess at the beginning of the series seemed extremely secretive about her past. We do learn a few things about her, but there were more possibilities to explore.
This was actually a bit of a period piece. The showrunner's intentionally placed the show in the 1990's before cell phones took over. There was a behind the scenes video after one of the episodes explaining how it was different to experience things on your own without posting it to the entire world on social media. The series focus was on walking with Tess as she filled her life with as many new experiences as possible. Tess was extremely open to experience everything she could and take it all in. The episode where she runs out to experience the first snow encapsulated this ongoing theme. Perhaps the showrunners are disillusioned with our current times where people experience so much of their life through their phones.
Conclusion: I'm happy I got to see Ella Purnell before Belgravia. I thought she had excellent performances throughout the series. I enjoyed getting to know the characters at the restaurant. I was disappointed they didn't fully develop the relationship between Tess and Simone. My favorite episode was when Tess spent the day with Simone eating grilled cheese and taking a nap in her tub. The showrunners decided to spend more time with Tess and Jake instead. I found that decision regrettable and less interesting. I do think the series ran its course after 2 seasons. I'm not surprised it wasn't picked up for a third. But I thoroughly enjoyed my time in NYC with Tess, Sasha, Ari, Simone, Heather and Will.
