Irma Vep2022
Life imitates art.
Mira is an American movie star disillusioned by her career and a recent breakup, who comes to France to star as “Irma Vep” in a remake of the French silent film classic, “Les Vampires.” Set against the backdrop of a lurid crime thriller, Mira struggles as the distinctions between herself and the character she plays begin to blur and merge.

Love this director, love this show, I just hate how nothing anyone ever does is ever good enough. Every time the 'director' is in the scene, I just know it's going to be a whiny criticism and an endless complaints-fest no matter how good the actors or script or set... He just always endlessly complains.
Irma Vep is a quirky showbiz dramedy with some of the most deceptively smart writing on television, and that’s worth tuning in for.
