I'd like to have seen more from the perspective of her, rather than how other's perceive her. The series seemed to miss a lot out, like that initial move to London for Saint Martins, dropping out and landing an internship in Paris (how?), how did she manage to afford the day to day essentials before becoming the hustler and during this, after moving to N.Y?I loved this series. Didn’t realise it was true till about half way through at first I found Anna annoying but I really grew to like her! I can’t believe how much she got away with! I’m just fascinated by the real story of Anna now and keep googling it. & the balls she has. Not afraid of authority at all. I’d love to know more about her real parents but there quite private. I loved the scene where her and Todd had that huge argument and she finally dropped her guard and was vulnerable to him.
To give her the benefit of the doubt, her parents seemed to favour the son over her, she didn't "fit in" with anyone, and actually had the chance to legitimately get into the fashion world before giving it all up to scam. It felt like she was constantly putting on this "face" to everyone, and they believed in. Neff seemed the only one in the show to see she was hustling, same as everyone else, but to a far greater extent. Everyone just seemed to use each other. Nora paid for the company of young men, the boyfriend taking all those kickstarter donations, Rachael scrounging off of her "friend", even the lawyers "used" her in some way, be it the original one to get his mojo back and pit her against his own daughter, or the latter wanting to draw in more clients.
