Apple TV Plus’ France-set limited series rests on the charm of its Oscar-winning star

You may be forgiven for thinking, as we did, that it was wildly flattering of the folks behind the new Apple TV+ series Franklin to cast Michael Douglas as that titular founding father. Even at 79, the Wall Street and Fatal Attraction actor is as dashing and charming a screen presence as ever.

He takes from his grandfather, too, whose affairs with women during his Paris years balance out the more arcane conflicts and petty rivalries that characterize much of Franklin’s politicking life. And it’s there where Franklin, mostly due to the presence of Ludivine Sagnier and Jeanne Balibar distinguishes itself from the otherwise dry history lesson it is telling quite well.
