Breathless (2013)

Excellent cast and excellent production values, but they’re wasted on mediocre writing — a melodramatic backstory linking all the eps, and annoyingly expository dialog (“You know I’ve come back to look after Dad so you can get married”). Also annoying because the overall setting — an OB/GYN ward in the 1960s, with all that was changing in the world — is inherently interesting.

It’s worth watching if you need some relief from the stress of COVID, unemployment, and insurrection — and if you like these actors / this era.
