The Act, the chilling series about a mother who made her daughter believe she was sick
We told you about it when it was released. The Act is a series that shivers down your spine for two reasons. First of all, the series tells a singular and frightening story at the same time: a mother has always made her daughter believe that she is seriously ill – this is called Münchhausen syndrome. Worse yet, this miniseries is based on a true story … If you've never heard of it, we obviously won't tell you the ending. Be careful though, we warn you: this story is very gloomy and we contemplate a totally toxic relationship between a mother and her daughter. The actresses, Joey King and Patricia Arquette, are amazing there. This miniseries is available on Prime Video.
