Anyone take a dive into Black Money Love from Turkey on Netflix?

19. well, this is in response to your later post--(two thoughts with spoilage) to counteract

unnecessary squishing of post widths.

Speaking of anti-heroes, BBO is definitely in this mold as well as the current SK series. As for the heroic female sisterhood, Elif surely fits the category, but I'm not clear on why that helps justify Nulifer's result. Perhaps if I imbibe a bit, it will be more apparent to me....not an insinuation about your observation, but my ability to connect dots.

Also, the initial footage of BML I believe was filmed in Van, although your later remembrance of the convo at dinner pointed this out....

I, as well, have communicated with Netflix but more specifically about Engin coverage. Surely they should have Fatmagul as well as BBO and a couple of his movies. Though I have watched many other Turkish series, I find most of them much less compelling and somewhat derivative. With the current rise of Netflix collaboration, however, (eg The Protector and Atiye) I am seeing the inevitable emphasis of commerce over art. This was already happening even without the Netflix collaboration since the commercial distribution of Turkish series has become big business in itself. Although BML did this to some extent, I will forever forgive it for the universal truths it so cleverly dealt with. Omer being totally incapable of understanding the "our song" concept was just perfectly played.

Well, I watched Eksi Elmalar. Nice costuming and scenery. I'll let you watch it before I give spoilers.
