WHAT DID I WATCH ON NETFLIX: "GIFTED"



When Mary's mom committed suicide, her uncle, Frank, took and raised the genius kid because he wanted Mary to live and enjoy a normal life as a child - unlike him and her sister. At one point when his rich but tyrannical mother [Mary's grandma] got to find their hiding place, she challenged the custody of the little girl for a better education and living condition for Mary. This has opened up the real conflict and the dark and hostile past of family and the climax of the plot when Frank and Mary were separated against their wills. The norm is one cannot be genius and live a happy and normal life. You have to watch until the end so as to see whether there is a happy ending to this story.

By the way, the lead actor, Chris Evans, is also the one who plays Captain America so you can see him as an ordinary human being, and not a superhero in Avengers.
