My Brilliant Career
Restless, razor-sharp and refusing to conform, 17-year-old Sybylla Melvyn is dead set on writing her own story in an era that expects her to find a man and settle down.

What people are saying
Updated nightlyThis adaptation of Miles Franklin's story is a hit, carried by a sharp lead performance. Philippa Northeast is electric as the rebellious Sybylla, perfectly capturing the spirit of a young woman fighting to become a writer against societal expectations. The high marks for acting and visuals show people are sold on the world and the characters, especially the dynamic between Sybylla and Harry Beecham (Christopher Chung). A few viewers found the story's pacing a bit slow, but with most reactions being positive, that's clearly not stopping anyone from enjoying it.
