Soldato
Just finished Inventing Anna on Netflix. The semi true story of fake heiress/influencer Anna Sorokin and how she works her way into the upper echelons of NY elite society, and defrauds a number of large institutions. I remember a headline or two about it at the time, but never took much interest in the real story when it was in the news.
Julia Garner (Ruth in Ozarks) plays Anna Delvey. In the very opening credits you hear her accent (she still has that drawl), and think 'they've got this wrong', but you get used to it after a time. At times she sounds like Esme Creed-Miles in Hanna, other times she sounds just like Ruth. When you actually listen to the real Anna Sorokin though, you realise she's not that far off.
The mini-series reminds me a little of the Billion Dollar Code, or the film I, Tonya in the way it is told. It's not quite as good as the former, but probably on par with the latter. I'd give it at least a 7/10, IMDB disagrees with gives it a rating of 6.9/10.
Anna Chlumsky as Vivian Kent (really playing Jessica Pressler) is decent, but does seem to go a little overboard. I found Alexis Floyd playing Neff to be one of the best characters in the show.
