Top Cast
"Isabel," like all good biopics, reveals the person behind the legend, humanizing its protagonist and reminding viewers that the path to greatness is never assured and rarely foreseen.
The series does an admirable job of respecting Allende’s biggest love affair: writing. Though its focus on her intimate life ends up occupying more time than her professional one, we are shown again and again how she sees the act of creating as her path to salvation.
While Isabel doesn’t exactly dive too deep into Isabel Allende’s life, it doesn’t completely sugarcoat it, either, which is all we ask of a biographical docuseries.
