‘A Man In Full’ TV Review: Jeff Daniels & Diane Lane Are Full-On In Netflix’s Tom Wolfe Adaptation, But That’s Not The Only Reason To Watch
With Regina King & David E Kelley behind the camera, this talent rich miniseries wonderfully depicts the fall of a bankrupt man
Kicking off with some incredibly well considered Shania Twain and including a certain stable coitus scene, the sweeping six-episode saga directed by Oscar, Emmy and Golden Globe winner and One Night in Miami… helmer King, and showrun by small screen maestro Kelley, this A Man in Full is a splendid thing to see indeed. Hot off portraying MLK Jr in last year’s Rustin, the British actor’s role here as Croker’s corporate fixer tentatively finding his soul in the dank marsh of the criminal justice system is a coup de maître. As much as Daniels’ thick Georgia accent, football legend past and appetite for all things gold and that glitter fuels the miniseries, it is Ameen’s Roger White that illuminates the inner and external drama as too many men try to let the Big Red dog out, as the script says.
