“Everything Netflix’s ‘Griselda’ Left Out About the Narca’s Violent History - VICE” Wow, this was disappointing to read! Apparently she was much WORSE in real life! What will we learn next? That Tony Montana ALSO wasn’t as nice as he seemed in the movie? https://t.co/9ku5fi6DHm
How does the real-life #Griselda measure up to her portrayal on Netflix's “Griselda”? The answer, if you ask Miami filmmaker @BillyCorben, is complex enough to fill a seven-episode podcast, cohosted by Blanco’s last-surviving son, Michael Corleone Blanco. https://t.co/CzKPWOSI9x

Griselda (2024, Netflix) is pretty good. I can't take my eyes off the screen. Because it's subtitles and my Spanglish is shit. And it's entertaining overall. Kinda.
