Anya Taylor-Joy elevates the predictable material. She is pretty mesmerizing - quirky looking with big inviting eyes and she moves the pieces like a ballet dancer. The melodrama is not too intrusive and the pacing is pretty swift considering they stretched this out to 7 parts (could have done it in 3).
This series is an example where an actress can transform fairly ordinary material and bring it up to a level where it "seems" much better than it is. She should get nominated for this.
