Yes, The Handmaiden is very much deserving of all the praise it receives, but Fingersmith is so much more underrated and really deserves the same amount of praise. Especially since it’s so amazing and based off the same novel, though Fingersmith is more closely adapted to its source material than The Handmaiden. Which means Fingersmith differs a lot in era and twists, but it’s still a very touching and romantic story full of twists. Also, I absolutely LOVE the mid-2000’s BBC aesthetic that this mini series has and I think it gets too much hate.
