Director Saverio Costanzo on 'My Brilliant Friend' Season Two: "We Know Our Limits More"
The second season of HBO's Italian series My Brilliant Friend brought back to the screen the rich and complicated friendship of Elena Greco (Margherita Mazzucco) and Lila Cerullo (Gaia Girace), who are each growing into their own — which means, at times, growing apart. Creator Saverio Costanzo returned to direct six of the second season's eight episodes, set during 1950s postwar Naples.
