I watched The Handmaid's Tale and almost couldn't even blink. That actress, Elisabeth Moss, is excellent. Always walking on the thin line and does it so well.
But, the series scares the shit out of me. In Margaret Atwood's world (the book) the society is a hellhole, a bad bad bad nightmare. What scares me is that the world is so crazy that it could easily tilt into the extreme. Is the THT a wakeup call, a prophecy? Is it so farfetched really?
We need to be aware of the dark forces and read between the lines, folks. It's not too late, but let's not make it either.
