The Drama Series Money Heist (La Casa de Papel)

The Spanish drama Series La Casa de Papel (The House of Paper) won the International Emmy Award for Best Drama Series in 2018.  Part 1 was released in 2017. Series 5 & 6 are available on Netflix this year. One review has 5,000+ comments, most are praises AND Bella Ciao (refer my previous post for the song). The Drama is Spanish, the song Bella Ciao is Italian and the comments are mostly English. To be fair, there are some critics as well, mostly on the irony that the viewers tend to support the robbers and violence. Each character is unique in his/her own vices. Kind of Maleficent effect - a shred of kindness in the world of evil, yet people are attracted to that kindness. Miss the jungle for the tree. Anyway, I was also hoping to get a glimpse of the state of Denver, Colorado. Not the character Denver's laugh a a a a a

Here is the synopsis of Money Heist:
'An unusual group of robbers attempt to carry out the most perfect robbery in Spanish history - stealing 2.4 billion euros from the Royal Mint of Spain.'

You think there is no real life Central Bank Heist? There are at least 11 different types of robberies in the world, mostly remain unsolved untill now. You can watch the video below (11 minutes). I am not promoting heist. Just admiring the scriptwriter/creator of Money Heist's Alex Pena that captures global interest. Wish I could write like that. Even the mask design was carefully selected from the Spanish painter Salvador Dali. Every little thing is well-researched and has a meaning behind it. That is probably his ingredient for success. Imagination + Facts + Creativity + Perseverance. RESEARCH.
