20. Nilufer's result - spoilers
Sat Sep 12, 2020, 07:57 PM
Sep 2020

I've been mulling her ending on and off for days now. I expected her to go it solo with the baby. But once I settled on Elif's hero role I looked at Asil. An unlikely pairing at first glance. I liked him a lot. Can't he be my neighbor? So open and accepting. He's the closest she'll ever come to finding what she needs.

And so Nilufer has to be getting what she needs, too. She was the baby and so spoiled. My first thought was that the relationship can't last. She's not wired for what he can give her. The bassinet scene began and I couldn't watch it.

Or maybe it was a gift from the writers to local viewers. Perhaps they were writing on the fly. After hearing from viewers they may have crafted an ending to satisfy those who wanted her wearing a baggy housedress and a baby off a nipple. I'll bet there were a lot of Fatmas out there waiting for Nilufer to "get hers".

Btw, spoil away! It can't ruin any of these stories for me. I'll watch EE tonight. After all the series watching it's time for a movie.

I'll include asking Netflix for Turkish art films when I write. Let them know that I'll watch the commercial stuff but expect them to seek out the thoughtful stories out there like BBO. It'll probably depend on their ability to get a copy with English subs.

Some last thoughts here. Can Elif accessorize or what? My girl even wears her bracelets in the shower. I really do love that character. High and mighty Omer pushes her away, she says, "Okay, fine." and he's lost. Rinse - repeat. The old culture has him in its clutches. But he took a deep dive into the Golden Palace of the Himalayas and came up with his eyes twinkling. There was no doubt that Tayyar's days were numbered.
