Featured review
This show hasn´t got the attention it deserves
I´m kind of surprised that there´re so few people actually watching this show, despite how great it is. This show is the perfect adaption of Elena Ferrante´s Neapolitan Novels. Every line and every detail is showing respect to Ferrante´s original words.
If you´re a female, go watch it.
If you're a male, you should watch to get to know females.
