Netflix’s ‘One Hundred Years of Solitude’ Is a Faithful and Eloquent Adaptation of the Beloved Novel: TV Review
In Netflix's television adaptation of Gabriel García Márquez's "One Hundred Years of Solitude" a family and country come apart at the seams.
Over time, Úrsula gives birth to three healthy children, José Arcadio (Thiago Padilla), Aureliano (Jerónimo Echeverría), and Amaranta (Luna Ruíz), all possessing perfectly human bottoms. Under productions designer Bárbara Enríquez’s vision, the series showcases elements like the lush but treacherous Columbian mountainside to segments of magical realism, including a young girl bleeding in a bathtub in the river and the ghost of a dead man haunting the living. As the show presses through time, respectability politics, illegitimate children, sibling rivalries, self-harm, incest and mental illness bend and shift the Buendías, driving some family members out and pulling in others.
