In 2022-23 Netflix stock price dropped by 3/4 after rocketing up eight times in the previous five years. The drop happened after this muddled, historically incorrect movie and similar were put online.
It added to a growing perception among stock analysts and the sharper IMDB reviewers here that Netflix efforts were becoming Hallmark-Lite or Lifetime-lite just when real competition between streaming services was setting in.
Since then Netflix seems to be trying for better writing and better direction and its stock is creeping back up. So the 1-2-3 star reviews here (which I rarely add to, but often read) sometimes do producers a good turn!
By the way, Kelly McDonald, put in a ridiculous position here, is a fine actress with some great parts in her past. She was very moving in "The Decoy Bride".
