Women Talking

daniella_2577 shared a tip "Empowering! Shows how sometimes, to be strong means to seek safety somewhere else, not necessarily to fight back. Shows women and their fight for safety and their dreams. Fighting for a better future! #based_on_books #feminist #prochoice #women #women_empowerment"

heynarwhal shared a tip "A powerful true story of a group of Mennonite women attempting reconcile their faith and move forward with life after a string of horrific sexual assaults. Despite the bleak start to the film, the rest of the movie is filled with empowering scenes and great performances."

aditya_7055 shared a tip "A powerful film with a thought-provoking exploration of the meaning of forgiveness and what is the right thing to do in a difficult position. Top notch performances across the board (especially Jessie Buckley, Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, and Ben Whishaw) and especially Sarah Polley’s screenplay (I hope this wins Adapted Screenplay at the Oscars). More people need to see this."

pjara shared a tip "This was an incredibly powerful movie and hard to watch. Women Talking has a calm, almost serene quality, which makes the fleeting glimpses of the horrors these women and children went through even more bone chilling. The outstanding ensemble cast delivers incredibly nuanced and grounded performances that should give this movie a solid place among the academy award nominees. 9 out of 10"

kelly_g_PhD shared a tip "I cried for about 75% of this movie. Almost the entire movie is listening to a group of religious women in an isolated colony talk about how women are treated and what can be done or NEEDS to be done to change that. The movie does a good job of taking the societal issues women face (abuse, sexism, etc) and breaking it down and showing how difficult it is to do something about it. I think it was done brilliantly. Great acting (as an ensemble). Great story. Important/realistic/relevant to everyone topic."

susan_ofner shared a tip "A portrayal of the complexity of emotions experienced after sexual assault: fear, anger, anxiety, panic, sadness. The victims find empowerment by deciding in unity to leave. Powerful film!"

lorrie_meyer shared a tip "This is a beautiful film. The writing, acting, directing, cinematography & music will likely get nominations for Oscars. Go see it before it leaves theatres. Definitely worth seeing on the big screen if you can."
