Rachel Brosnahan as Miriam Maise
Fascinating! Some movie magic there.
Camera operators are the real artists of a movie… heaps of skill.
I love how the camera is attached to the rig with an electromagnet so that it releases perfectly smoothly once the operator has a good grip on it. Very clever.

I once saw a similar move but a camera operator was flying with the camera on a crane and landed on foot to continue a shot… man, I tried to find the video one time and never could again. Any stranger know what I’m talking about? Details are fuzzy, this was like a decade ago.

It’s the late 1950s and Miriam “Midge” Maisel has everything she has ever wanted — the perfect husband, two kids and an elegant apartment on New York’s Upper West Side. Her seemingly idyllic life takes a surprising turn when she discovers a hidden talent she didn’t previously know she had — stand-up comedy. This revelation changes her life forever as she begins a journey that takes her from her comfortable life on the Upper West Side through the cafes and nightclubs of Greenwich Village as she makes her way through the city’s comedy industry on a path that could ultimately lead her to a spot on the “Tonight Show” couch. The series was created by Amy Sherman-Palladino (“Gilmore Girls”).
