Sinon j'ai vu la série #Decameron sur Netflix et c'était sympa (ça aurait été encore mieux de la tourner en italien cela dit)
I realised that I can't understand most of what that maid says and I wonder if it's the accent or (most probably) her acting hysterical for plot reasons I won't spoil.
BUT I also realised I don't care much for what she says. I find her slightly annoying anyway 
I like Filomena though.
Conundrum 
This is fun for me.
I'm on ep.3 and so far Neifile is my favourite character. She's a cracker 
I had no idea what I would be getting into when I started watching the Decameron. I knew it was based on a 14th century book of which I vaguely knew the premise but that was it.
The show is all over the place but I kinda love it in the same way I like modern Shakespearean remakes that don't take the subject matter too seriously.

I just saw Netflix's new trailer for 'The Decameron', which is my favourite Italian literature masterpiece since forever, and my gut tells me that it is another Hollywood's butchery and ridicule of a culture that US producers and writers are unable to engage with but see some sex and some fun of the church so why not turning it into a sex and alcohol 14-century Lord of the Flies horror show.
The first mention of pasta with a drizzle of olive oil was in Boccaccio’s #Decameron #BellItalia
