Promising Young Woman, Explained - Look In the Mirror

Get a full month of MUBI FOR FREE: (With the support of Creative Europe – MEDIA Programme of the European Union) Promising Young Woman isn’t just a female revenge movie -- it’s a mirror that forces us to confront dark, ugly realities about our society and ourselves. Emerald Fennell’s feature directorial debut centers on Cassie (Carey Mulligan), a vigilante-of-sorts seeking vengeance. Cassie’s weapon of choice? People’s idea of themselves as good, which she threatens by revealing how badly they treat women.
