'Promising Young Woman' Cast Explains the Female Revenge Thriller

Рет қаралды 458,501

4 жыл бұрын

In "Promising Young Woman," Carey Mulligan plays a 30-year-old woman named Cassie, who lives with her parents and works in a café. She dropped out of medical school for reasons that become clear as the plot unfolds. But what audiences see immediately is that Cassie’s side gig is going out to bars and appearing so drunk that a man will take her home - but to say what she does once they do would be a spoiler. (The movie’s tagline is “Take Her Home and Take Your Chances.”)

It was the cutest, but while watching it I had a feeling it was too good to be true and I ended up being right. When he called her a “miserable asshole” I thought it was funny because he had caught her with that other guy and that playful insult was a way of breaking the ice and moving past the awkwardness between them, but when he called her a “stupid bitch” while in bed with her it was a red flag for me. It revealed what he really thought of her, and then toward the end there he really brought it home when he called her a “fucking failure.” Damn. Well, that said, the pharmacy scene/love montage set to “Stars are Blind” is one of the most wonderful and memorable movie scenes I’ve seen in a long time.

is an emotional punch in the gut. But it operates on so many levels. The journey the audience is taken on with Cassie is harrowing. Not an easy film but a superb one. It causes one to examine sociological archetypes. on a technical level, this film is as well made as anything I've seen. Solid camera work, framing, photography, set design, writing, acting, and the score by Anthony Willis is transcendent. It starts off like Herrmann's Psycho but develops into a far more emotionally rich tapestry.

i’ve written essays praising emerald and carey, but right now i was to point out something kind of subtle i noticed in this interview about Bo. Bo sits back, farther than the girls are from each other, and his light top makes him blend even further into the background. but he’s sat back so much that he’s almost cut off on the right side of the frame, and throughout the interview he mostly just listens to carey and emerald. he seems to be purposefully stepping back, physically but conversationally as well, only speaking when addressed or referenced. he’s a great comedian and extremely quick witted normally, so i’m sure he has a lot of funny quips running through his head at all times. but because of the focus this movie has on women behind and in front of the camera as well as women’s experiences with men overall, he’s giving the subject the gravity it deserves and giving emerald and carey the time to say their piece before he adds onto it. like it should be common sense that a man shouldn’t cut off a women when she’s talking about the female experience, but you’d be surprised how many men do. but he doesn’t. and the reason i find that so wonderful because i feel like comedians, and more often male comedians, have a tendency to interject a lot in interviews - which i don’t usually mind that much anyway when they have good comedic timing - but in this instance Bo is recognizing that some parts of this conversation are about things he really has never experienced and therefore he’s letting the authorities on the subject say what they want to say before he adds his own thoughts or jokes. and he’s obviously actively listening and very mindful of this. i’ve always loved Bo’s comedy partially because it’s so self aware. he seems to be acutely aware of his place in any given situation, and especially aware of when it’s better to stay in that place or subvert the expectation. so i’m glad those skills show through to these serious topics and social situations as well, not just his comedy. he truly is his character in real life, and by that i mean the romance-montage paris-hilton-loving ryan, without the other garbage. honestly i feel like ryan’s function in the movie may not have been as successfully executed with a different actor because he is so distinct and smart and respectful. when i heard the first line of ryan’s voice in the tape, i gasped along with cassandra because i was so surprised, and to pull that off it takes a lot of subtlety. tldr; though obviously carey and emerald are the focus, i just love bo for his emotional social and comedic intelligence. he’s one of a kind and i hope to see him in more things, or making more projects similar to Eighth Grade.

Like in real life, the scariest part is that normal good guys are the aggressors or the bystanders of that violence, because is not about specifically those guys in the movie but about how living in a rape sexist culture gives you permission to think what you are doing is not a crime. She would’ve move on if everyone around her would’ve act accordingly to the severity of the crime. The scariest scene for me was with the Dean because it shows this is waaaay bigger than Nina, when she says that every week we have at least 2 accusations like this, and instead of she thinking, I have a severe problem where my female students are being systematically attacked and they are not safe, she thinks o well girls like to lie, and statistically only 2% of those accusations turns out to be false, because is is really hard to come forward with an accusation like this, puts you in the most vulnerable spot, a spot you don’t want to be in just like that. What normalization does is that allows violence to escalate. We have that problem in Mexico, every day 11 women die mostly at the hands of their acquaintances, their couple, a cousin, a neighbor, a friend, a police that is supposed to protect you, not an unknown drug dealer. And I’m not even talking about how many women suffer any kind of sexual assault without dying. We needed a movie like this.

The problem is Mexico's corrupt government. Not a particularly more toxic man problem. The cartels pay off large parts of the government. And the way around that is not to have mob rule trials initiated by screeching women. Women and men have ample opportunity at least in America to report sexual assault. But, it is college aged women that specically act suspiciously like con artists when asked to report the crime to the police and generally provide some form of evidence. Don't tell me that's not behavior that is also common in people who are lying and hiding something.

@andrewsindler5867 3 жыл бұрын

@@mjlim6610 I don't think that's it at all. I think that's a line women say a lot. I think it has little to do with reality, though. I was raped by my roomate in boarding school as a teenager and had no issue reporting (state police not local). You don't go alone. And being raped gave me occasion to speak to many men later in life who were too. They had no issue reporting either. I can't vouch for the properness of the prosecution process because I know many people who've been screwed over by the state's eagerness to plea out and just shortchange cases. But, I can say that police are not shaming women as a trend. If you don't report it is is your own stupid short signtedness or even worse because you have something to hide and the story is not entirely true. I understand how maybe you cannot initiate a report if you are young and underage. But, many who claim they could not were adult women then. It's ridiculous on its face and very suspicious. Normal people report when felonies are committed against them. There is something bizarre and deviant about the supposed trend of women not reporting. It either says feminism is teaching them to make bad sex into rape and they know they are lying orrr it means some of these women are being raped and they have phenomenally lower threshold for dealing with reality and trauma than their male counterparts. I have seen many women on extremist feminist forums like gendercritical who would say I didn't really enjoy the sex yesterday night with my boyfriend but I had it. I'm thinking now it was rape. So, understand there are a good number of women who delegitimatize the reality of rape and weaponize it. Lie about it. Spin it in fantasy and so forth. But, if women can call the police when they've been physically attacked and are in mortal danger then tell me how so many cannot make a report when they are not in danger after being sexually assaulted. It just doesn't track with reality. But, perhaps these are some of the more mentally ill women who have been asssaulted. The issue with Mexico is a separate one. It's a country with hundreds of times more problems than America. I cannot imagine the police do well there.

one thing that the film does quite well is making every character feel so believable and real even though the background is so colourful and edgy, like the fact that it deconstructs the whole what doesn't kill you makes you stronger trope and faces the fact that trauma like this can really break a woman down for example the main character seems at first like the most badass person ever and that she is so strong but really you can see how hurt she really was because of her past trauma and that not everything she did was the right call to be made ideally. Ultimately the traumatic events that the movie refers to from her past and the whole culture of the society around them caused the loss of the promising young women in the film.

I thought the direction, the costumes, the production design were all so clever. It was pastel and bright. Cassies house and wardrobe was hyper feminine covered in flowers and pink. And Ryan always wore blue. The pastels almost create a dollhouse effect. The final scene SPOILERS with Cassies death with her under a pillow and al on top of her for so long while he could have easily slipped his hand out of the handcuffs using a lever was so powerful. I think there’s some really cool symbolism in this movie that i can’t quite put into words

@lucytorres4846 2 жыл бұрын

I watched this masterpiece for the first time yesterday and I don't even know where to begin. It hit home because one of my best friends went through a similar situation and from my perspective I could see how jarring, incredibly scarring and unbelievably painful it is to be blamed for being intoxicated and not being able to consent or say no. It made me want to cry and couldn't stop thinking about so many other stories from loved ones involving being questioned and judged. People complaining about the end and expecting it to have been a happy one, I humbly believe, are missing the entire point. Life is unfair, shitty things happen every day, sometimes there is no justice, sometimes people don't get a happily ever after, but Cassie made sure she did everything in her power to do things right for Nina's memory (and herself). It'll take me some time to digest for sure, but this is superb and quite possibly the greatest movie I have seen in the past decade.

I LOVE how the message of the film is that you need to keep your guard up with men despite of how ''harmless'' they may seem and that even women can be an obstacle for your freedom when they don't believe you. EXCELLENT CAST as well because all the men that were in this film have played ''the nice guy'' and you get completely tricked of the shit they do for real, it broke me

I don’t know if she’s the frontrunner. Personally, she would be my pick. But this year is particularly evenly paced. Viola and Frances are winning a lot of other awards right now, so they have quite a large chance of winning another Oscar, but I would definitely choose Carey if it were up to me. Also, there’s a lot of rumbling about Vanessa, who could prove to be a bit of a dark horse. But yeah, right now it’s rather evenly paced between Carey, Viola, and Frances, there isn’t yet a clear frontrunner. Actually, Frances WAS considered the frontrunner for a while, so the whole thing can change on a dime.
