Mildred Pierce (2011) (TV)

Based on the novel by James M. Cain, 1st ed. 1941.

During the American depression, Mildred separates from her husband and, after a brief table waiting job, opens a restaurant. She succeeds but her daughter hates her.

Lifeless miniseries with very detailed apparent proceedings but little exploring of characters' inner workings.

Rating: 37
