I thought <i>Are you the one?</i> was a little more interesting than this one.
This one is probably more accurate, but Johnny Tremain seems more entertaining.
She's Generation Jones: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Jones
Liked her as a physicist playing against James Bond - think of the combination of brains and beauty.
And she never sang again.
We liked it as well. This one delved quite a bit into psychology I thought, though it hadn't been officially invented yet.
One thing I thought was odd was the behavior of Ross in episode 7. He suddenly started behaving strangely and there had been no prior signal that he would do that. It seemed out of character.
Another puzzling thing is that that made such a big deal of Glanville, but when Clara was looking for a place to stay, she never considered it. Why?
Also, why, at the end, when some characters are looking at a gravestone, does the name on the stone appear to be misspelled? Was that intentional to protect identities?
Slooooow Horses, but even better than both of them is The Bureau, the original that this is based on.
If you read the recent book on the making of Chinatown, apparently the final version of the script was Polanski's, though he let Towne have the credit. Towne's original script was not his work alone, either, but in collaboration with a "silent partner" who never got paid or credit. Polanski never worked on the script for The Two Jakes and maybe the difference says something.
No, Baum described her home as a small farmhouse on the Kansas prairie, but no specific location is given.

It was <b>a lot</b> more entertaining than Synecdoche.
Actually I don't think Brad was a guy who didn't get it. After all, he wanted to explore transcendentalism of his own accord. I think more he was a guy who sold out so much, became so fake, that he no longer recognized himself.
It doesn't matter. The character's not really required to be American.
Surely <b>The Stranger</b> must be one of them, maybe <b>the</b> one.
I wonder what if we had learned she was an assassin at the same time he did. But I suppose that would always have been given away by the marketing anyway.
<i>A More Perfect Union</i> (1989) is the story of the framing of the US constitution and features Washington, Franklin, Madison, Hamilton and many more, even Jefferson and Adams who were not at the convention.
Not sure about some of the casting and acting choices - particularly Washington and Madison - but it feels like they tried very hard to be historically accurate.
I would be curious to know the source of the idea that the music to Deutschland Uber Alles was played in the evenings. As this music by Haydn was first published ten years later, it seems a complete anachronism.
Similarly, Madison was known for always dressing in black, but here has a white shirt, a blue jacket and red pants.
The main focus is on the Great Compromise and it's a sad story because Madison was right, but not listened to by enough people and so we got the messed up Senate and electoral college mess we are having so many problems over today. I wish at one point Madison would have stood up and made the central point so it was clear to everyone, that when you don't let the majority of voters have their say (which is exactly what the non-democratic Senate and college do), there can be huge problems in government.

He's supposed to be a professor of languages.
Yes, this
He probably stayed and taught German?
Interesting, thanks!
