Little Birds is a series that honours [Nin's stories] and their spirit, adding even more to them and making them resonate anew.
-
It’s unclear exactly which characters to focus on and what their motives are, and tonally the show is confused.
-
By its midpoint, the series’ sensuality flags, replaced by more straightforward dramatic dilemmas and espionage machinations that lack the preceding passages’ oomph.
-
Little Birds just tries to do too much, leading to an unfocused and hard-to-watch first episode.
-
Beyond the lush aesthetics – themselves a kind of voyeurism after months of staring at the same interiors during lockdown – it’s hard to work out what the point of it all is.
