My Brilliant Friend is an incredible coming-of-age drama that may very well be my favorite television show of all time. In this video essay, I examine just what makes this show a transcendent masterpiece worth watching, taking a particular look at its literature-like qualities, beautiful cinematography, intensely complex themes, and so much more.

About My Brilliant Friend: Pseudonymous author Elena Ferrante has written four mega-popular Neopolitan novels that explore the complicated intensity of female friendship, which has now been translated onto TV.

Filmed in Italian, the drama centers on elderly author Elena Greco, who learns that the most important friend in her life, Lila Cerullo, has disappeared without a trace. It causes Elena to reflect on the early days of their friendship in dangerous but fascinating Naples, Italy, in the 1950s, when Elena and Lila are two very different girls at the top of their class. The story goes on to cover more than 60 years of their lives as Elena tries to describe the mystery of Lila.
