Movie #2102 ........................."The Undoing" (HBO)

 Movie #2102 "The Undoing" (HBO)  is a limited series full of twists and turns, with exceptional acting from the major 4 cast members:  Kidman, Grant, Sutherland, and the little boy Jupe (who impressed me for the first time as the best friend in the movie "Wonder") .  One time, in particular, I said "what?" to the t.v. and had to go back because it was such a surprise --- that doesn't usually happen to me.  But then, I am one of those people that watches something like this and tries to make a guess halfway through to see  at the very end I am  correct.  In this one, I was correct, kind of because   the way it got TO the revealing moment was the surprise to me.   I recommend it, and boy Kidman is deserving of the golden globe, but so are the other 4.  I am glad I am not choosing who is best out of her fellow nominees:  Blanchett, Edgar-Jones, Haas or Taylor-Joy.  Wow!  So much talent in that list --- I have seen them all this year and appreciated every one of their performances!!!! I highly recommend this one (4.5 out of 5)  ---- it ranks up there with "Defending Jacob" and "Your Honor" --- although I didn't finish "Your Honor" because I don't have showtime.  Does anyone know any other way to watch that if you don't have showtime?  I just got to see the first episode!  Darn!   I guess I will have to wait on that one. 


"THE UNDOING"    5 hours, 37 mins     6 episodes, about 56 mins per episode   2021

A modern twist to a classical "whodunnit" tale, when the life of a wealthy New York therapist turns upside down after she and her family get involved with a murder case.
