David Simon adapts Philip Roth's novel about Charles Lindbergh's rise to the presidency and its impact on one Jewish family in an HBO limited series starring Winona Ryder, JohnMTurturro and zoeinthecities. Read THR's review for ThePlotAgainstAmerica:
was a cautionary tale about anti-Semitism in the United States and the dangers of a cult-of-personality presidency in which a politically unseasoned celebrity favored for his "America First!" nationalism forges questionable international alliances and enables the worst instincts of his partners and supporters, setting off a wave of hate crimes further emboldened by "But the economy is booming!" platitudes.
Simon and Burns still have Phillip at the center, but they've shifted the focus more to the entire clan, including news-obsessed patriarch Herman , increasingly concerned matriarch Bess , credulous older son Sandy and hot-headed cousin Alvin , each forced to deal with the Lindbergh presidency and its ramifications in their own way.
as your model, you may be underwhelmed. The things happening in the early installments are meant to invite not exactly ambiguity, but moral negotiation.
This allows Boyle to give what is probably the series' most dynamic performance, certainly the one with the most range, since Spector and Kazan's characters are, for long stretches, restricted to variations on similar responses — he's dogmatic, she's worried and sad-eyed. Spector and especially Kazan are still very good, and I appreciated that there were just enough beats of warmth between the characters to give the series some heart.
