‘Vladimir’ thoughts, Episode 2: ‘The Awakening’

The problem I’m having with Vladimir is that instead of reviewing it, I want to transcribe it. Adapting her own novel, writer-creator Julia May Jonas alternates aphoristic quips, keen interpersonal observations, and steamily subtle come-ons with such alacrity that I don’t think a review can do it justice. People use the phrase “thrill ride” to describe action movies, but with one gleefully surprising line after another, Vladimir earns the title.

I reviewed episode 2 of Vladimir for Decider.
