Inventing Anna is a Netflix series about Anna Sorokin, a Russian con artist who posed as a wealthy heiress and infiltrated her way into New York's elite social circles. Although based on real-life events, this show is labeled as a bad adaptation. For the sake of its commercialization, the production added a lot of unnecessary and false drama. The movie glorified Anna and failed to show the harm she caused. It presents her as an antihero and gives a narration that makes the audience sympathize with her instead of giving significance to her fraudulent actions. It is even filled with timeline inaccuracy and there is a vast misrepresentation of her lifestyle.
