HBO brings back MyBrilliantFriend, the Italian TV adaptation of Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan Novels about a fraught female friendship through the years. Read the season two review here:
— both Elena Ferrante's celebrated Neapolitan Novels and the Italian TV adaptation thereof — is largely sociological. Two girls in midcentury Naples, gifted with intellect and ambition, diverge dramatically in their paths when one, Elena , is permitted to continue her formal education, and the other, Lila , is forced to end hers after elementary school.
For the first three episodes, Lila is trapped, Rapunzel-like, in her fashionable, well-appointed new apartment. Her only visitor is Elena, who helps Lila study, so she has something to do. If the season's initial question seems to be how much will Lila domesticate herself to avoid setting off Stefano's hair-trigger temper ,quickly disabuses us of the idea that Lila will change, especially for someone she has so little respect for.
As the season wears on, Lila grows less and less concerned with Stefano's most basic needs, her relationships with her family and her in-laws, her diminishing reputation in the neighborhood, even her alliances with the mafiosi on whom her fortunes depend. The fearlessness that defines her also pushes away Elena, who finds her friend's recklessness alternately repulsive and wildly self-destructive.
