*this is currently available on hulu*
the book was written in '85 (?) and i remember catching bits of the movie that was made in '90, and, it wasn't terrible (robert duvall, faye dunaway~i think)
but, as it has been done now, as a series, it pretty much follows the book. and given the current state of affairs with women's issues,
and political insertion into women's rights (no ..well maybe a little pun intended ), this actually was a little to close to believable.
elizabeth moss plays 'offred', and gives a spectacular performance.
highly recommend. 10/10
