   Is My Brilliant Friend a good TV series?

   What is my Brilliant Friend about?

   • “My Brilliant Friend” is a story about many things—left-wing politics, male violence, fancy shoes, the warping force of patriarchy on female creativity—but it’s centrally about class-jumping, through education, the kind that makes one aware of the origins of social class, including the ways it’s embedded in art.

   What language is my Brilliant Friend on HBO?

   • My Brilliant Friend was the first foreign-language series to ever premiere on HBO. The show isn't just in Italian – there are large chunks in Neapolitan dialect, meaning even viewers in Italy need subtitles. The intricacies of speech are important. Neapolitan is the language of the neighbourhood, while Italian represents a life beyond it.
