Hey Internet,
I’ve recorded my thought process when I thought about clicking on the Flesh And Bone stream on Stan. I was really umming and aaing as to whether I should watch this show:
Me: A whole series of Black Swan!?! Sounds pretty good. Well….it can’t be as good as an Oscar winning movie….
Flesh And Bone: Meet Claire Robbins, a young woman who has moved to New York…

I watched the first 2 episodes and found it to be one of the most depressing things I have ever watched on TV. The acting, dialogue and cinematography is incredible, but seeing a young woman constantly being physically and mentally abused with no up side is distressing. There are flash backs to her incestuous brutal brother and she gets raped by her nasty 'patron'.
It reminds me of a lot of French films that have very young girls having sex with older sophisticated (vicious) men because they are "helping" them to become a woman.
I binge-watched this show in one day. I love it! It was somewhat confusing at times but then surprisingly sincere and beautiful. By the end though, I was questioning whether Claire's relationship with her brother was consensual or not.. Thoughts?
