Sinopsis(1)
Based on the bestselling novel of the same name, and featuring tour de force performances by several top Hollywood actors, BIG LITTLE LIES is a darkly comic drama set in Monterey, CA that begins with a suspicious homicide at an elementary-school fundraiser. Though the victim and the perpetrator initially remain a mystery, it seems likely that the murder was spawned by rivalries and secrets surrounding three mothers: type-A stay-at-home mom Madeline Mackenzie (Reese Witherspoon), who harbors jealousy towards her ex's new, younger wife Bonnie (Zoe Kravitz), a yoga instructor with a Zen attitude; Madeline's best friend Celeste Wright (Nicole Kidman), a former corporate lawyer with a seemingly perfect marriage to a younger man (Alexander Skarsgård); and Jane Chapman (Shailene Woodley), a single mom with a dark past, whom Madeline and Celeste take under their wing. Intercut with interrogation-room insights of other parents and school staff – who offer up a Greek chorus of gossip on the town's allegiances and rivalries, particularly revolving around Madeline and her nemesis, tech-exec career mom Renata Klein (Laura Dern) – the story unspools over seven tense yet subversively funny episodes, revealing how each of the women had something to hide leading up to that one fateful night.

Big Little Lies (2017)
Agatha Christie meets full frontal feminism. I don't know if I should take a look first at how well it's written, how exactly it's acted, or how exclusively it's filmed. There are a lot of series that work hard on feminism. This is feminist, without pirouettes and big words. A maze that on the one hand looks like a brilliantly built small-town tragicomedy, on the other like a purebred whodunnit detective story. God, do not punish me for guessing the solution in the third part. But the sound of Elvis still vibrated me. Love them all, those wicked moms.
