Olive Kitteridge (2014)
2014 · 1 season · Drama
A look at a seemingly placid New England town that is actually wrought with illicit affairs, crime and tragedy, all told through the lens of Olive, whose wicked wit and harsh demeanor mask a warm but troubled heart and staunch moral center. The story spans 25 years and focuses on Olive's relationships with her husband, Henry, the good-hearted and kindly town pharmacist; their son, Christopher, who resents his mother's approach to parenting; and other members of their community.
Created by Jane Anderson. Starring Frances McDormand, Richard Jenkins, Zoe Kazan, Rosemarie DeWitt and Martha Wainwright.
