Starring Elizabeth Olsen and Jesse Plemons RT says:: Anyone who saw the 2022 Disney+ mini-series Candy will have a sense of déjà vu watching this seven-part drama, as it tells the same true-life story of 1970s Texas housewife Candy Montgomery, who went before a jury after an affair with a married man from her neighbourhood led to a killing.
There are, though, notable differences, both in structure and style, with this series laying out events in a more linear fashion and terrific lead star Elizabeth Olsen humanising Candy in a way Jessica Biel wasn’t required to when she played the part. So gone are the bubble perm and bubbling rage, and in comes a more sympathetic depiction of a woman for whom suburban pressure to conform would eventually result in shocking violence. This opening episode spends the bulk of its time outlining Candy’s dissatisfaction with life and her growing attraction to a member of her church group, but there are hints at the horror to come, with vivid streaks of blood glimpsed across linoleum floors.
