Zelda’s free-spirited nature and desire to express herself would have, of course, been far more suited to modern times. But, on the plus side, her vindication is about to occur through the lens of Christina Ricci, who is set to play the troubled Southern belle in a series for Amazon called Z (after the book of the same name).

Centered around the early courtship era between herself and F. Scott, as well as their later years as expatriates in France, the series (or TV movie, as it’s currently being listed on IMDb) is sure to offer a starker portrayal of Zelda’s life and marriage, particularly considering it’s being penned by Nicole Yorkin and Dawn Prestwich, best known for The Killing. And so, at last, there is a bit more justice for a woman whose reality has for so long been contorted by the false perspective of others.
