The Girl Before. Available now on HBO Max.
Oh masochism, thy name is woman. At least, that's the case in The Girl Before, HBO Max's new suspense drama, in which the pretty and well-educated female characters indulge themselves with a steady romantic diet of liars, manipulators, sadists, control freaks and murderers, then put themselves in thrall to totalitarian houses. That's right, houses. Would you knowingly rent a computerized house that prohibited pictures, ornaments, carpets, rugs, books, magazines and about 200 other perfectly ordinary items?
