Netflix released the second season was probably the most comical of the show Ryan Murphy — “the Politician”. In this new confrontation clashed young — the headquarters of the protagonist, a failed President of the school, and now a new York student of Paignton and the old — timers experienced Senator Dede Standish and her scientist Hadassah gold in that role was played by Hollywood legend Bette Midler. Film critic Dmitry Barchenkov explains why you need to put everything aside and see this sharp, but calming a satire on everyone.The release of the first season of “Policy” last fall, it immediately became a loud event. It was the first series in the framework of multi-million dollar contract platform Netflix with the most prolific show-run America Ryan Murphy. And immediately one hundred percent hit — a vivid political satire, which, on the one hand, laughed at the new American order and parodied a number of scenes (for example, “Disappeared” David Fincher), on the other hand, was excellent television shows, becoming a favorite among young audiences. The plot revolves around a young and ambitious high school students from Santa Barbara named Peyton (actor and singer Ben Platt). From childhood he dreamed of becoming President of the United States, but first it was necessary to obtain the so-called starter-Pak famous policy: is to learn, to become President of the school, a Harvard MBA and the list goes on.

In the final, quite revisionist (because more similar to the first series second season) episode, we saw the hero, three years after major failures. He moved to new York, quietly studying at University easier and lives in a modest hostel and in the evening suppresses the alcohol and sings in a local bar. But suddenly in his life returned to friends (they are the same — his campaign staff) — a proposal to participate in the struggle for the post of majority leader in the Senate. And if then “Politician” has teetered between a sneer and a story of growing up in about the realistic circumstances, but now the creators finally untied their hands. Caricature michelly season, not always, but quite often raced on the tracks of the absurd. That only cost sverhkachestvennoy heroine Jessica Lange — grandmother with delegated Munchausen. Or frankly vulgar interiors with stuffed bears and wolves in the girl’s house Paignton Alice. But the second season, in the center of which were already adult (and very dirty) political game, began to look for absurdist notes in everything. My opponent Peyton, the longtime Senator Dede Standish (Judith light), two men, and their intimate life they secretly shared for three. These relationships are for a season changesmiling a couple of times. In a similar situation would be Peyton.

And the mother of Peyton Georgina (Gwyneth Paltrow) will also come into politics to proclaim the state of California, for which she will have to fight for a separate state. Such a world, and he’s kind of deliberately cloying (new York landscapes, along with the outfits, which are impossible to break), was perhaps not the ideal weapon of satire of its creators. For all the heroes it is easy to see their prototypes (the same Greta Thunberg, for example), and for comic situations — real life. It’s under an hour is much more absurd than any fiction. Acting prazdniku specified conditions is placed perfect for that artists. Juniors continue to grab the stars from the sky — each of them satirically accurate: from Sabinanigo man Theo Germaine to the stars of the Comedy “Why him?” and “Adult games” zoey Deutch. But the leading Comedy the party there is still a senior. The star of soap operas and sitcoms on which here, too, laugh, Judith light plays a way of the past, accurately reproduces their same heritage.

Being the sort of cartoon person character completely unrealistic, it was she, along with Didi, is the media leading the protagonist forward of maternal wisdom. And the main credit, of course, is to pay Bette Midler that Ryan Murphy has returned from professional oblivion. Sugary and bold political lady Hadassah gold — this is clearly a new Chapter in the work of the actress. So powerful she was since acrid fantasy “hocus Pocus” or at least Comedy with Mel Gibson “What women want”, which, by the way, her Hadassah wants to revise when you retire. Another Zinger from the team Murphy. New order best of all the authors failed two good things right. The entire second season focused on the struggle of young and old buzzer with boomers and their predecessors. Not by chance in the electorate episode we see the hard confrontation between the two average American women — mothers and daughters, each of which promotes its candidate for conventional family Council. The key here is the resolution of conflict. The mother, knowing the progressiveness of the young, recognizes their advantage. Suddenly giving his vote to Peyton, and in the evening hugging a daughter, who also repents of his temper. It will continue the extremely touching finalNoah the talking Didi the Standish in front of them with Peyton decisive battle in the last minutes of the series. Thus, adult authors (Murphy 54, and his co-authors Brian Felczak and Ian Brennan — 49 and 42, respectively), sometimes rather harshly grinning over the young, still give way to them, making their “Policy” of conciliation medication for so many different generations. And finally, the show should rate more “Hollywood” — the recent show of the same Murphy that copied historical injustice. “Politician” works with this: allows women to lead the country, and the young — to prepare to continue their business very soon; teaches you to accept yourself and to follow any dream, not only his, but also his neighbor. Exactly in this situation, according to the authors, the loser will not. Dmitry Barchenkov
