I was interested in watching this as I enjoyed the movie many years ago which was directed by Olivier Assayas and starring his then-wife Maggie Cheung. Olivier Assayas also directed this 8 mini-series and after the first chapter and half of the second chapter, I was bored. Alicia Vikander is as bland as oatmeal and just seems to sleepwalk through her lines. The rest of the cast mostly French overact as though they were in La Comédie Française.
