"I loved this short series! I really enjoyed watching Cristina Ricci tear up the role of F. Scott Fitzgerald's wife. She also produced this series, which I think is exceptional. Her acting was fierce and wild, but also shows a need to be seen and understood.Warning: ⚠️ some female nudity."

"Utterly disappointing portrayal of Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald.
The casting feels mismatched, with actors who are at least a decade older than the Fitzgeralds were during this period.
Their performances lack charisma and depth, rendering the characters flat and unengaging.
To make matters worse, the series strays from historical accuracy, further diminishing its appeal.
For a story rooted in such vibrant and complex figures, this adaptation falls far short of expectations.
I can’t even finish it.

"She was an interesting character. Ricci was a good choice to play her. I wish they'd done more than. one season"
