Thrillers/Suspense : Promising Young Woman (2020)

Promising Young Woman (2020)



Finally got around to watching this one.

In this revenge thriller, Carey Mulligan plays a young woman haunted by the rape and suicide of her best friend. This sends her down a dark path exacting revenge on those who were complicit in her friend's rape. The film touches on a lot of modern topics: date rape, toxic masculinity, and even societal privilege and never fails to be compelling. Worth a watch if you like thrillers or want to see a twist on revenge and modern dating. Streaming on HBOMax.

Hey Diddler, Diddler….the cat and the fiddler LOL

Sounds like a free card given for toxic femininity and yet the ladies will get a free pass because of their "special" gender….

Because I'm calling out female toxicity?

I like a good revenge film as much as anyone else, but exacting revenge isn't exactly heroic.

You're like a toxic female yourself.
