I think one of the saddest things about this last season of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel is that everyone seems to have forgotten how important Lenny was to Midge.
From the interviews that are coming out and from the flashfowards of Midge’s future life it seems that Lenny’s contribution has been almost irrelevant and that you can easily overlook to it...
But it was Lenny who pushed her forward when she was stuck and believed that Midge had to listen to herself first in order to understand who she really is, as he has always did since the beginning.
This is my opinion. What I choose to keep to myself from this so much beloved show is the beautiful love story between these two characters, who always tried to encourage and supporte each other in difficult times as in the happiest ones. Their love is hard to fit into a well-defined category but I know it will last forever and that there will never be anything like it.
Although, Midge could have made things different trying to "fix" Lenny’s suffering, but at the end she chose not to do it in order to respect his wishes, the ones he confessed her on that stage at Carnegie Hall, during one of his most vulnerable moments. For me this is one of the highest forms of love, even if it was dictated by an unfair reality. I think that Lenny’s death was the main cause of Midge’s unhappines and harshness in the future and this realization breaks my heart.
