Women Talking (2022)
10/10
Astonishing Film - Moving & Poetic. Flawless Ensemble Cast. Best Film of Year 💯
13 March 2023
The film that SHOULD have won the Oscar for Best Film. My 3rd Annual Oscar Snub Award goes to 'Women Talking'. This is the first Snub Award given to a film that was actually nominated (Best Film) and Won an Oscar (Adapted Screenplay). But the film is so far above the field, that once again, it begs to be asked "what were Academy voters thinking?" This is the only film in recent memory that I wanted to see twice in the same day. Every sentence of the screenplay is poetry - simply amazing work. Thankful the Academy recognized Polley's inspired and (again) poetic adaption of Miriam Toews' book.

The ensemble cast synergistically propelled each other to greater heights, and the performances are spell binding. Bravo ladies👏.

This film proves why more women should be directing. The film engrains itself in your soul and speaks to one's humanity. Most moving artistically written film in recent memory.

Without any reservation, two thumbs up for the MUST-SEE film. Immediately placed on my Top 100 Greatest Films list.💯. No other film this year is on that list.

👍👍
