tasseled

This series shouldn't have been marketed to hard sci-if fans with short attention spans. It's much too realistic, reflective, and measured to appeal to them. Anyone who likes multi-layered drama, grounded narration, but with a haunting direction and soundtrack would love it. I can't stop thinking about The First and hope negative reviews don't kill this one of a kind show. One of the most creative, captivating, and original series I've ever seen. It's slow, but every moment is done with purpose.

A weird and original movie that is part witty comedy and part meaty drama. There are so many sides to it. It is an exploration of women taking control of their sexuality, but still being vulnerable to its darker side. A dialogue about abuse of underage kids by people in power. A portrait of fragmented families and parental abandonment. Depression, suicide, and hope. It's a quirky, but full-of-heart, film that does not preach its message to the audience. Both me and my husband thoroughly enjoyed Flower. It does not deserve the low rating here.
