Review: “Fleishman Is in Trouble” spends too much time with the wrong people
, initially operates as a mystery: Where is Rachel, and is this the sort of behavior that led to the end of their marriage? Viewers ponder the questions as Brodesser-Akner slowly upends whatever assumptions they may have formed. It isn’t novel to suggest there are two sides to every story, nor does “Fleishman” add much to that conversation.
That “Fleishman” is front-loaded with Toby becomes even more unfortunate upon reaching the standout episode exploring Rachel’s side. Even while playing a woman unsure of herself, Danes has a commanding presence, one that immediately draws viewers in. She doesn’t need Libby’s voice-overs to help convey Rachel’s deep insecurities and anguish, though a single line of narration just about sums it up: “Yes, she was a terrible person, but bad things happen to terrible people, too.
Such is the moral of “Fleishman,” a narrow slice of the misery we, as human beings, inflict upon ourselves and our loved ones. It remains ambiguous which Fleishman the title is referring to; from the look of things, Rachel is in just as much trouble as Toby, or as anyone who has ever stuck a little too hard to their own point of view.
