(In response to John Stodder's review of "The Plot Against America"):

I wish I had HBO. That sounds excellent. I do have Netflix and will recommend another Jewish mini-series (did I mention that I’m now communications manager for Jewish Federation of St. Louis). “Unorthodox” is a based-on-true-life story of a woman who flees the confines of a Hassidic community in Brooklyn. It’s one of those “takes you inside a world you don’t know” stories pared with a “fish out of water” tale. Excellent acting and complicated characters.
