This is Netflix’s most expensive project to date in Latin America, with Colombian groups and indigenous communities building props and sets for the series
Line of Events
In the timeless town of Macondo, seven generations of the Buendía family navigate love, oblivion, and the inescapability of their past and destiny.
I’m still on episode 4, but so far so good, in fact, quite amazing, it’s been everything I expected it to be
I know a lot of people won’t be happy with this adaptation, but in the end it’s a great novel, we all know it’s simply impossible to film and as you all know the author didn’t agree to adapt the novel before, and now his children have agreed to adapt it, so the result in my opinion is that Netflix managed to adapt it very well, maybe not all perfect, but they came very close, I think they did a remarkable job of recreating the spirit of the novel + the cast is very good, and the locations and the whole production were satisfactory actually.
One Hundred Years of Solitude is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month
Overall, I recommend people give it a chance and don’t let the critics get to you and don’t let the Netflix name get to you either.
