The Girlfriend - Amazon Prime mini Tv Series with Robin Wright and dragon lady Olivia Cook

Is anyone watching this? Between incest vibes and real estate porn this is quite wonderful. The plot is preposterous, but there is a bitch fight in every other scene.

Laurie Anderson plays the son, a puppet between the women and is quite adorable.

Hopefully the son is actually secretly getting it on with the poolboy.

The son is ugly

I think if I were to be reincarnated as a woman, I might pick Robin Wright. She was gorgeous in her youth and got plenty of prime cock. She got half of Sean Penn's money, then had a short marriage with the hot younger Frenchman. She seems like a fierce bitch.

Robin was recently on the Drew Barrymore show for this.

Laurie Davidson, not Anderson

I think Robin Wright is hot -- but only now that she's older and has kind of a hard edge.

I was enjoying it until the last episode, which was really dumb.

Robin Wright is a shamefully underated actress.

by Anonymousreply 11September 21, 2025 4:41 AM

I watched the first episode this evening (I don't like binging - I'd rather watch one episode each night this week). I really enjoyed it - interesting to see the different perspectives from the two women. The reason I watched was because Wright was on 'The View' earlier in the week, and the discussion about the series intrigued me.

Land is a movie everyone should watch. Robin Wright was amazing.

How was Robin Wright ever a thing?

by Anonymousreply 14September 21, 2025 4:52 AM

Laurie Davidson comes off as really hot and sexy in some scenes, yet not so much in others. I'm wondering if it's the lighting and camera angles that sometime work with him and sometimes don't. I'm not noticing it with the other actors.

As she gets older, I'm finding Robin Wright is morphing into Glenn Close. There were some scenes (such as the opening scene when she was on her cell phone talking to her assistant) where I could've sworn I was watching Close. Same mannerisms, similar look.

Who would name their kid Cherry.

by Anonymousreply 21September 21, 2025 10:37 PM

Laurie Davidson

Jesus that’s a Spectrum face if I ever saw one

He looks like he’s staring out from another dimension

He makes Matt Bomer look neurotypical

That's a big Frankenstein forehead he has going on there. He looks better in the series with the curly hair falling down above his eyes.

by Anonymousreply 23September 21, 2025 10:53 PM

Definitely looks better from the side that head-on.

by Anonymousreply 24September 22, 2025 1:29 AM

Yeah Cherry was not attractive at all and the kid wasn't really either. The whole cat thing was annoying, Wright didn't seem to give a shit her indoor cat was suddenly missing.

Robin Wright was great as Laura Dern's hippy friend on Enlightened.

Poor Robin. Those women on The View are such morons. She has more patience than me.

by Anonymousreply 32September 22, 2025 2:20 AM

Made it (perhaps) 20 minutes into the first episode. I felt like someone was hitting me on the head with a brick over and over again. No subtlety at all. I could practically predict the ending, but if I were wrong, IDGAF.

As hot as I think Robin Wright is, sorry -- I can't do it.

by Anonymousreply 33September 22, 2025 3:23 AM

I thought the same thing about the opening scene, r16. She reminded me of Glenn Close as Patty Hewes. It's the tight face and the older neck.

Robin Wright on the Delicious Clash of ‘Alpha Females’ in ‘The Girlfriend’

The whole last episode was bad. Way too much reliance on the “you need to call me so I can tell you something important” and “I’m not going to listen to what you have to say even though you keep insisting it’s incredibly important” tropes. Not to mention the stupidity of Robin Wright drugging her son so that she can then finally play him the recording while he’s barely conscious.

by Anonymousreply 39September 23, 2025 4:56 AM

Her son was a doctor yet made zero attempt to save her when he pulled her out of the water. Was that on purpose that he wanted her gone ? The way Cherry was staring at him, I think that's the message she was sending.

Anyhow, I said it upthread - Wright was giving off Glenn Close vibes in every scene. It was distracting at times.

by Anonymousreply 40September 23, 2025 11:52 AM

WTF would anyone name their son "Laurie?"

by Anonymousreply 41September 23, 2025 12:05 PM

That’s all what made the entire series so stupid, R39. Or maybe he’s a doctor but skipped CPR day.

by Anonymousreply 42September 23, 2025 12:13 PM

R41, I believe (from reading "Little Women") that Laurie was short for Lawrence.

My uncle was Laurie but he was a Dane from Denmark.

by Anonymousreply 44September 23, 2025 1:39 PM

Wright directs herself in the first three episodes. She's like John Cassavetes!

No apparent explanation for why two Americans in London have a son who speaks like a public schoolboy trying to sound like he's from Essex.
