This is a brilliant book & I had high hopes for a film adaptation but Netflix have ruined it. The lead German actor is reasonable, if dull. Lars Eidinger is brilliant ( see Babylon Berlin) but the so-called French female lead isn't French and has no acting ability AT ALL. Hard to understand the casting. So at what point did they decide not to take the French language language and acting ability into consideration? There must be hundreds of good French actresses in London /US. Do Netflix take us all for idiots?

It so very sad to see such a brilliant book brought down by awful acting. Kept wondering if it was the script-but no.

Really enjoyed this. It's got virtually nothing in common with the French version & that doesn't matter. More of a dark comedy drama than Call my Agent.
