Taste my whip.
So begins the Spider Dance, a sublimely absurd, extremely sexually charged performance by Lavinia Dickinson Emily s younger sibling, played with hormone-fueled gusto by Anna Baryshnikov. Lavinia scuttles across the floor, flutters her skirts, and wields her whip, all in a bid to test her would-be fiancé s tolerance for her true self: not the aspiring housewife of season one, but the independent, artistic woman she s begun to grow into, with a little help from her older sister. Judging by the look on said fiancé s face, it s a hit and it s just as compelling for the audience watching at home, if for other reasons.

“Dickinson” wasn’t just Hailee Steinfeld’s first TV series. The Oscar nominee started her producing career with Apple’s Emily Dickinson comedy last year, and she told International Business Times that she’s feeling much more comfortable filling that role in “Dickinson” Season 2.
“I have a much clearer idea as to what my role is as a producer in Season 2,” Steinfeld told IBT. “Season 1, obviously, [was the] first time, [so it was] a lot of figuring out what the hell I was doing, just as Emily, as Hailee, as a producer. But Season 2, we were more of a well-oiled machine, if you will.”
