Yes I know the famous line goes differently ... but it is more fitting for the movie here to use it like that. Also I have to admit, that for a show that is quite close to cross the line into cliches - it is a thin line after all - it handles itself more than well.

Which is down to the actors (not just but of course our main heroine) and the makers of the show. A very important issue ... one that we may feel is way over the top and couldn't possibly exist in the real world .. and yet it does. Just because we were lucky enough not to have experienced it, doesn't mean others were as lucky.

It also takes twists and turns that you may not expect like that. And it has a flawed but so relatable main character ... it almost hurts. But yes even she is not able to avoid doing things wrong. And even when you think she should act a certain way ... it is sometimes easier said than done.

An important and really good show - please if you are abused (even "if only" mentally), reach out and talk to someone. The show states that remaining silent and hoping it'll go away is not going to work ... something it has in common with reality and life ... fleshed out characters and believable turns, make this a must watch.
