Because I Could Not Stop (S01E01)

It feels like Sofia Coppola was the first to really flip the 18th and 19th centuries on their head for cinematic effect with Marie Antoinette.

I couldn't get past it, and Hailee Steinfeld's portrayal was more annoying than engaging. After the first episode, I called it quits. (02/27/2021)
