There are no user reviews yet - Be first to review Funny Woman.
-
It’s easy to like Sophie, played with nuclear-strength moxie by Arterton, but even allowing for the times, there’s no buying into the central conceit of her as a raw, trailblazing comic talent – however much everyone around her keeps hammily insisting so.
-
The fixation is really on her [Gemma Arterton's] performance in the astonishing “Funny Woman,” a sort of sitcom about a sitcom and a beautiful woman’s triumph over presumptions about beautiful women. Set in the ’60s, it is, in a sense, a reverse “Mrs. Maisel.” It is also one of the more surprising things to find on PBS.

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel trod similar ground: a woman being funny! In the olden days! But that show had a much snappier script. The charm of Funny Woman rests on Arterton, who makes the six episodes worth watching.
