Ana Milan is funny, she is self-critical, she knows how to laugh at herself (and she knows how to laugh with others), she knows how to handle acidity, provocation, grace, brutal honesty.
All those sticks that define this Spanish actress are the same ones that hold the soul of
By Ana Milan
, a series to digest in one bite.
And surely more than one will be left wanting more.
For them -we-, peace of mind, there is already a second season.
For now,
in Argentina you can see the first one
, available in Flow since last week (and in Movistar Play).
It has the agility and duration that many
streaming
marathoners ask for
.
And, above all,
acted like Milan: intensity in its purest form
.
There are eight episodes of less than half an hour each.
"By Ana Milan" already has a second season, but has not yet arrived in Argentina.
Beyond her good previous jobs, such as Professor Olimpia of
Physics or Chemistry
- an old youth series starring Úrsula Corberó, from times when she neither thought of Tokyo nor La casa de papel - or Sara Montiel from
Veneno
, Ana Milan has also been in the news for its reflections and
funny posts on the networks
. Especially on days (like these, still) of pandemic.
The Atresplayer Premium series, released in Europe in November 2020, treasures a good part of these stories, which,
told in the first person, gives By Ana Milan a kind of biographical framework
.
It is not a biopic, nor a self-portrait: it is an X-ray of
picturesque Milan, which is encouraged to show itself with lights and shadows, so real that it generates empathy
, but with certain licenses that fiction gave it.
A recommendation: if you decide to watch the series, do not go around looking for what is true in each scene that is told.
That Ana Milan from the series can be one hundred percent that of real life ... of not so much
.
But surely there are more than 80, to say by the things that have spontaneously been counting.
It is not the same ...

The story begins when Ana is about to go through what she imagines as
the best day of her life
.
She is seen wearing a wedding dress, ready to say
"yes, I do"
, and about to star in a movie, because
the Ana Milan of the series is also an actress
, of course.
And suddenly, Mario (Israel Elejalde) disappears without explanation, the shooting fades and what he painted for the
better
becomes the
worst day
.
Disoriented, sad and scared, she
wanders more than she walks
, but, perhaps without knowing it, the character builds a very interesting path in that grayish gait, both for her own review and for the delight of the public.
She seems to have been left alone, but Ana is supported by
her group of stalwarts
, with Rebeca (Pilar Bergés) at the head.
His are collection dialogues
.
This is not my series.
This is the series of all of us who would get together to chat every day at 6.
To share the bad and make it a little better.
It is the proof that dark rooms always have a window waiting to be opened.
THANK YOU 😊 #ByAnaMilan #laserie ❤️ https://t.co/luCSgUkORo

One hears
that Ana
speak
masterfully interpreted by Milan
and feels that one is reading the Milan of the networks, or listening to the one in the interviews, and one
does not find in that woman almost any of his previous creatures
.
Not only because of its versatility, but because the actress was encouraged to look, with grace, for the composition that the mirror returned to her.
Image that does not always like, but never distorts
.
